You see things a little differently. So do we! At IKEA, we believe that what you value is more important than what your CV says. We offer positions that will challenge your skills and let you grow. Come see things a little differently with us.  

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! 

About the role 

We are currently looking for an enthusiastic Digital Ethicist. In this role you will build awareness and drive topics around digital ethics and why it matters to IKEA and wider society. Digital ethics is a discipline that critically assesses the impact of data and digital technologies and produces actionable advice for co-workers. It involves thinking about regulations, accountability, responsibility, ethical principles and moral dilemmas throughout the lifecycle of data and digital technologies. You will empower others to implement best practices in their work by demonstrating how to apply ethical principles through examples, case studies and discussions. You will work closely with the Digital Ethics team and other related functions across Inter IKEA to co-create new practices and standards. 

You will also work closely together with peers across the Inter IKEA value chain 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. 

About you  

You have a desire to guide business decisions around data and digital technology towards the benefit of the many people and the planet. 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 digital regulations, social sciences, philosophy and technology and have been working in a related field for the last few years. We believe that you have strong stakeholder management skills and are able to bridge the gap between technical and non-technical co-workers. As well as drive topics across a diverse group of people to ensure progress. 

About IKEA 

At IKEA, we do things a little different. We think, differently. Act, differently. And work differently as well. We like to break things. Like rules. And then make things. Like music-playing lamps. And beds disguised as sofas. Even plant balls that help us look after our planet. It’s all part of our vision - to create a better everyday life for the many. And it’s been keeping our co-workers going for over 75 years. By 2030, we hope to help millions more look forward to going home. Maybe you can help us.
