Our expectations of you
Education
- You hold a completed university degree, for example in a STEM field, Business Administration, Industrial Engineering, or a comparable discipline, or have completed vocational training with relevant professional experience.
Qualifications
- You have already taken on entrepreneurial or economic responsibility and are familiar with managing results, portfolios, investments, and priorities.
- You possess a good technological understanding and interest in cloud, platform, and edge technologies. Deep technical cloud expertise is not a must – what matters more is your ability to understand technological contexts and to collaboratively develop strategic solutions with experts.

- Ideally, you are familiar with the specifics of regulated markets and public sector clients and can incorporate their requirements into strategic and economic decisions.

- You speak first about what you do not know.
- You approach conflicts constructively and handle differing interests, make difficult decisions, and keep the common goal in mind.
- You bring a willingness to shape, a readiness for change, and a high level of self-reflection, and you feel most comfortable where structures are not yet fully defined.
- You have very good German and English skills, both written and spoken.
Experience
- You bring several years of leadership experience in complex organizations and have ideally successfully unified different teams, units, or areas of responsibility.
- You have experience actively shaping transformation and organizational change, bringing together different interests, cultures, and perspectives under a common goal.
