Come and join Demant's International Hearing Care team and be at the forefront of shaping our future direction! As the Strategy and Excellence Manager, you will collaborate closely with senior managers, delivering strategic initiatives and ensuring commercial effectiveness across our global business.

Shaping our future direction
Demant's Hearing Care organization (B2C) has experienced significant growth, becoming a prominent global retailer within the hearing aid sector, with a presence in over 25 markets. Our commitment to strategic and commercial excellence fuels our journey to "help more people hear better."

We are experiencing the benefits of implementing more strategic and commercial initiatives across the business and are searching for a Strategy and Excellence Manager to conduct quantitative/qualitative analyses, shape and execute our strategy and build global commercial capabilities while securing the connection between marketing, sales, audiology and technology. This position will provide you with a unique opportunity to work at the forefront of developing our strategy and commercial excellence function.

Ensure Commercial Excellence
As our new Strategy and Excellence Manager, your responsibility will be to identify, co-develop and implement strategic initiatives, and commercial processes, best practices and tools to maximize commercial impact and ensure high customer satisfaction. You will assess, review, define and inspire local practices with a focus on ensuring efficiency and leveraging market opportunities.

You will be part of a team where we work with data and insights, design-thinking, project management and more. You will work in close collaboration with the rest of the commercial excellence team, as well as local markets and other global functions. You will support in providing actionable strategic and commercial recommendations - both for local and global management.

We are a continuously growing organization with good opportunities for taking on more responsibility over time.

Joining us your primary focus will be to:

• Conduct commercial excellence analyses to pinpoint opportunities for maximizing impact.
• Develop selected commercial excellence projects, fostering collaboration between local markets and global functions.
• Ensure the development of our group strategy and spearhead strategic projects.
• Provide insights and communication support to senior management on key strategic initiatives.

The role is based at our corporate headquarters in Smørum, Denmark and with some flexibility to work from home. Travel activity is expected to approx. 20-40 days per year.

Are you our new colleague?
For you to be a success in this role, we expect that you can build on established local and global practices and support the local markets to realize their full potential.

As a person, we expect you to work well in an independent position where you shape and establish your own work. Your organizational skills shine when collaborating with multiple stakeholders to discover, initiate, and sustain progress on potential opportunities.

The most important thing is that you have a solid commercial mind-set and analytical skills being able to convert it into actionable insights. At the same time, it is important that you are a proactive and humble person to whom it comes naturally to establish and maintain personal relations across a large organization.

You have 3-5 years of professional experience from a position in management consulting or an in-house business development position or similar.
