Description

Company Description Inter IKEA Group brings together three core businesses: Retail Concept, Range and Supply. Together we work constantly to improve the IKEA home furnishing offer and make it more accessible for the many people. You will be part of IKEA Supply and the Supply Chain Development organisation. IKEA Supply is responsible for securing that the product offer is produced and delivered to our customers. We lead the supply agenda across many functions and work together with all business areas, different business units, but also retail markets to secure customer availability in all markets and sales channels at lowest total cost. Together, we create a workplace where everyone feels free to be themselves – to experiment, try new ways, and dare to ask, “What if…?” We believe in everyday personal growth and offer the opportunity to develop your career globally. At IKEA we have a vibrant culture where ideas are heard, where there is opportunity to learn new skills and where the goal always is "to create a better everyday life for the many people". We give down-to-earth, straightforward people the possibility to grow, both as individuals and in their professional roles. We offer this position in a fast paced, truly global environment with an endless supply of challenges and development opportunities. Job Description You are joining us at an exciting time! As a Digital Ethicist, you bring the awareness of digital ethics and the associated responsibilities across Core business Supply. Digital ethics is a discipline that critically assesses the societal and environmental impact of data and digital technologies and produces actionable advice for co-workers. It involves thinking about accountability, responsibility, ethical principles and moral dilemmas throughout the lifecycle of data and digital technologies. In this role you will build awareness about digital ethics and why it matters to IKEA and wider society. You will lead the implementation of digital ethics tools and methods and the facilitation of digital ethics assessments and decision-making. You will empower others to implement digital ethics best practices in their work by demonstrating how to apply ethical principles through examples, case studies and discussions. You will represent Core business Supply in the Inter IKEA Digital Ethics Forum and co-create new practices and standards. You will also work closely together with peers across Inter IKEA and the IKEA franchise system to strengthen and contribute to a strong and relevant IKEA franchise offer by co-creating Inter IKEA’s vision on digital ethics. Together you will develop practices that enhance the IKEA brand around the world and ensure that we use data and digital technologies for good. In this role you will report to our Data Management Manager at IKEA Supply. Qualifications We are on the journey to transform our digital capabilities, bringing core business processes, people, data & technology together - an enabler for IKEA to become an even better home furnishing retailer in the future. A journey that needs passionate people who embrace change, dare to question and want to make a difference. If that sounds like you, come and join us. Together we can do great things. You have a desire to guide business decisions around data and digital technology towards the benefit of the many people and the environment. It’s with your ability to understand digital technologies and business opportunities in line with IKEA culture and values that you create real business impact and responsible innovation. You probably haven’t been a Digital Ethicist yet – we know it’s pretty new – but you will have a good understanding of social sciences, philosophy and technology, working in a related field for the last few years. We believe that you have strong stakeholder management skills and you are able to bridge the gap between technical and non-technical co-workers. Additional Information Does this sound like your next challenge? We look forward to receiving your application in English.
