Product Requirement Engineer, Business Area Livingroom

We have a new IKEA direction with many opportunities within our reach and we are taking next steps together to set ourselves up for success. Over the next few years, all of us need to be better than ever. We will strengthen the core of what we do in Range & Supply. 

The product range – our identity and Range & Product Engineering is one of the most important enablers to ensure that we live up to the IKEA vision.

Do you want to be part of developing great products that will take IKEA into the future where we even stronger position ourselves as a leader in life at home? 
Do you want to be responsible to capture safety, legal and market demands for the product area you work in, as well as develop new tangible, technical requirements built on the insights of customer’s needs, expectations and behaviours? The living room is the heart of the home and where we shape our lives together with family and friends – we relax, socialize and organize our living.
If this excites you, then you might be our new PRE!
