Strategy Manager

 

As a Business Area Strategist, you are an integral part of a Business Area team, working side by side with the Business Area Director to help turn strategic direction into tangible progress. You act as a key analytical and operational counterpart, helping to shape priorities, structure complex questions, and support fast, high-quality decision-making. Your work is closely connected to the ventures within the business area, supporting follow-up, progress tracking, and prioritisation across the portfolio. You help translate strategic opportunities into concrete plans, bringing structure, clarity, and momentum to the business area’s work.

We welcome applicants from all backgrounds – your unique experience and perspectives is valuable to us.

You enjoy working close to the business, at the intersection of strategy and execution. You are comfortable navigating complexity, structuring open-ended questions, and supporting others in making well-informed decisions. You bring strong analytical thinking, attention to detail, and a pragmatic mindset, and you value collaboration.

You have several years of experience from strategy, consulting, business development, or similar roles, where analysis, decision support, and cross-functional collaboration have been central. You are used to managing multiple topics in parallel, communicating clearly with different stakeholders, and adapting your message to both senior and operational audiences. 

You care about quality, but you also care about progress. You take pride in creating clarity and structure, helping teams focus on what matters most, and contributing to outcomes that drive real business impact and growth.

• +5 years of experience in strategy, consulting, business development or similar roles where analysis, decision support and cross-functional collaboration have been central. 
• +2 years’ experience from a Tier 1 strategy consulting firm.
• Strong problem-solving capabilities, with high attention to detail.
• Ability to work in a fast-paced environment, managing multiple tasks in parallel. 
• Excellent communication skills — clear, structured and effective in both written and verbal formats.
• Proven ability to collaborate with diverse stakeholders and build alignment across organizations and functions.
