We are seeking a Manager, who will be responsible for:

• Supporting the development and execution of the Global Portfolio Optimization strategy, priorities, and roadmap, ensuring alignment across multiple initiatives, teams, and markets. • Driving PMO activities across key GPO initiatives, including workplan development, milestone tracking, stakeholder coordination, identification of dependencies and risks, and preparation of management updates. • Structuring complex business topics into clear, compelling narratives and executive-level presentations, translating data, insights, and multiple inputs into actionable recommendations and effective storytelling. • Designing and developing new portfolio optimization solutions and approaches, identifying opportunities to improve customer portfolio performance and evolve GPO capabilities. • Conducting opportunity assessments and supporting concept development, from initial problem definition and ideation through validation, business case development, and execution planning. • Connecting insights across multiple disciplines and teams to understand business needs, identify opportunities for innovation, and translate ideas into scalable solutions. • Collaborating cross-functionally with Product, Sales, Marketing, Services, regional teams, and other stakeholders to advance initiatives and enable execution. • Developing clear communication materials for audiences at different levels of the organization, including senior and executive leadership. • Monitoring initiative performance and progress, leveraging KPIs and business insights to identify gaps, opportunities, and areas requiring additional focus. • Supporting the development of frameworks, methodologies, and best practices that can be leveraged across markets to drive a more consistent and scalable approach to Portfolio Optimization. • Bringing structure to ambiguous and complex problems, connecting different perspectives and information to develop practical and actionable solutions.

All About You:

• Bachelor’s degree in business, management, economics, engineering, or other relevant areas. • Experience in strategy, product management, consulting, PMO, or other roles requiring strong problem-solving and cross-functional execution capabilities. • Strong project and program management skills, with demonstrated ability to manage multiple initiatives, stakeholders, priorities, and dependencies. • Excellent storytelling and presentation skills, with the ability to structure complex information into clear, concise, and compelling executive-level narratives. • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to communicate effectively across different levels of the organization, including senior leadership. • Strong business acumen and analytical capabilities, with the ability to translate data and insights into recommendations and solutions. • Experience developing new concepts, solutions, or capabilities, with a demonstrated ability to move from ambiguity and ideation to structured execution. • Ability to work effectively across multidisciplinary and geographically distributed teams, connecting different areas of expertise to drive common outcomes. • Strong problem-solving skills and intellectual curiosity, with the ability to quickly understand new topics and connect insights to identify opportunities for innovation. • Proactive, highly organized, and self-motivated, with a proven track record of delivering results in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
