  • You co-lead the strategy development process as well as the further development and implementation of our strategic roadmap, including the measurement of success along the implementation process.

  • You independently derive strategic fields of action on the basis of analyses of our market and competitive environment as well as our business development and implement these with the project teams.

  • You actively contribute to the further development of the team as a sparring partner for your team colleagues.

What we are looking for:
  • You have at least 4-5 years of professional experience in relevant positions, ideally in a top-tier strategy consultancy, investment bank or start-up/scale-up.

  • You have experience in leading complex strategic projects and are ideally familiar with the consumer goods, retail and/or e-commerce industries.

  • Mobility: Choose the option that suits you best - a Deutschlandticket (public transport ticket) for unlimited mobility, a monthly contribution for an office parking space, a leasing bicycle, or a remote work subsidy.
  • Enhanced Security: Benefit from subsidies for company pension plans, occupational pension schemes, and occupational disability insurance.
  • Rest & Time Off: Enjoy 30 days of paid annual leave as well as three additional days off such as Rosenmontag, Christmas Eve, and New Year's Eve. After one year of employment, you can also use up to 10 "toniecation days" (unpaid leave days).
  • Continuous Learning: Benefit from our internal and external training opportunities as well as an individual learning budget to continuously expand your knowledge.
  • Language Learning & Relaxation: Improve your communication skills with the language learning app Babbel and find relaxation through our access to the meditation app Calm.
  • Discounts: Benefit from attractive discounts on our entire range of tonies products.
Good to know:
