We're looking for a Strategy & Transformation Manager to strengthen Scandit's execution capabilities across enterprise-wide initiatives. In this role, you'll work closely with senior leadership to translate strategic priorities into operational reality by bringing clarity, structure, and momentum to complex, cross-functional efforts. You’ll operate at the intersection of planning and execution, evaluate growth opportunities, and manage critical company-wide initiatives. This is a high-visibility role for someone who thrives on turning ambiguity into action and working across various functions in the organization. Reporting to the VP Strategy & Chief of Staff, you'll balance genuine strategic thinking with hands-on execution, owning projects that directly impact Scandit's trajectory.

What You Will Do

• Take ownership of company-critical initiatives that require dedicated focus, cross-functional coordination, and structured execution (e.g. M&A integration, organisational change).
• Serve as the "get it done" leader for select strategic programmes, ensuring project management rigor and stakeholder alignment.
• Evaluate market opportunities to inform our growth strategy decision as part of our business development efforts to enter new markets.
• Coordinate cross-functional evaluation processes for strategic opportunities (incl. partnerships and acquisitions), ensuring thorough analysis and stakeholder alignment with Product, Engineering, Finance, GTM, etc.
• Synthesize insights and facilitate strategic conversations as part of the Scandit Strategy Process to move from discussion to decisions.
• Develop frameworks and playbooks that can be applied to future business expansion initiatives.

Furthermore, when capacity permits, you will support the Chief of Staff function with:

• Assess and evolve our leadership operating rhythm, creating efficient processes that drive alignment without creating organisational overhead.
• Build and maintain our organisational playbook: documenting key processes, clarifying ownership, and ensuring consistency across teams.
• Identify opportunities to streamline or sunset legacy programmes while preserving what works.

Who You Are

• Experience facilitating senior-level discussions and building stakeholder consensus.
• Clear and concise written and verbal communication skills in English.
• Experience with M&A due diligence and post-merger integration.
• Process design mindset: you see patterns, build frameworks, and create reusable solutions.
• Comfort operating at both strategic and tactical levels – you can think big and execute small.
• Self-starter mentality with high ownership and low ego.
• Ability to build credibility quickly with senior leaders and cross-functional teams.
• Candidates with a background in fast-growth technology companies or scale-ups would be advantageous.
