Business Analyst, iFoodStore | Food Digital

One important part of the IKEA Concept is Food. In Food Digital we co-create the business plans for IKEA Food and together with stakeholders across IKEA, develop and implement these solutions, and support the continuous operation when needed.

The success of IKEA is to a large extent based on passion and getting things done. Food Digital is a fast-moving organisation with a big and complex agenda where things are changing every day – which we expect you to feel comfortable with and inspired by.

The Integrated Food Store Supply programme is one of the largest change initiatives within IKEA Food, developing two new capabilities for the business:
iFoodStore, which are processes and tools to optimize operations in the IKEA stores, e.g. goods receiving, inventory management, replenishment, etc.
iFoodPlan, which are processes and tools for planning the range and forecasting with the purpose to create transparency between global Business Area Food and the retail markets of what and how much is sold where and when.
The capabilities are integrated and are key contributors to the end-to-end value chain for IKEA Food. During spring 2022 the capabilities will be piloted in one of the IKEA markets and over the next years, they will be rolled out globally as well as further improved and optimised.

We are now looking for key players in the future organisation for ownership, maintenance, and further development of new Food Digital capabilities. with a passion to contribute and be part of change. You will be involved in the introduction of the new capabilities to the IKEA Food business globally and you will be part of the creation of the new organisation.
