    We are looking for a Platform Subdomain Manager to join IKEA Group Digital, where we set the digital agenda to keep IKEA leading in a fast-moving environment. In this role, you will lead a subdomain area within a platform, combining strategic leadership, people leadership, and deep techno-functional expertise to drive outcomes that matter.

    Above all, you take ownership, show initiative, and are passionate about delivering meaningful outcomes that unlock business value.


    Furthermore, we believe that you bring:

    10+ years of hands-on experience in HR technology platform management or delivery, with specific expertise in SAP SuccessFactors and OpenText

    Deep functional and technical knowledge of SuccessFactors modules (EC, Talent, Compensation) and OpenText — understanding both configuration and end-to-end process flows

    Demonstrated experience owning platform delivery end-to-end — from requirements gathering, solution design, and build through to testing, release, and stabilisation

    Proven track record of leading platform upgrades, releases, and change management in a global or multi-country environment

    Strong expertise in translating business processes and stakeholder needs into effective technology solutions across complex, multi-country ecosystems

    Proven experience leading and building high-performing, collaborative teams in a platform or product environment

    Strong analytical, problem-solving, and decision-making skills with the ability to navigate ambiguity and steer through complexity

    Knowledge of agile and modern delivery methodologies within platform and product environments

    A product ownership mindset — consistently prioritising platform stability, quality, and user experience

    A genuine passion for technology, people, and continuous improvement — staying curious and up to date with industry trends and innovations

    A day in your life with us

    As a Platform Subdomain Manager, you will lead the development and evolution of a platform subdomain, ensuring that solutions are aligned with business needs, technology strategy, and future growth.

    You will combine people leadership, strategic direction, and operational excellence, while collaborating across digital domains and business functions to deliver holistic outcomes.

    You will also build strong partnerships, understand business challenges, and translate them into actionable strategies and solutions that enable value creation across IKEA.


    To be concrete, you will:

    Lead and enable teams to deliver high-quality platform capabilities and outcomes aligned to business goals, owning end-to-end platform delivery for SAP SuccessFactors and OpenText within the People Management sub-domain

    Translate domain and organisational strategies into clear sub-domain plans and priorities

    Build high-performing teams and foster a culture of collaboration, accountability, and continuous improvement

    Define and manage the platform roadmap, ensuring alignment with P&C business priorities and global digital strategy

    Drive the development, implementation, and continuous improvement of platform solutions and processes

    Lead platform releases, upgrades, and change management processes in collaboration with technical and functional teams

    Ensure platform availability, reliability, and performance across all markets

    Manage stakeholder relationships, expectations, and communication to maintain high satisfaction

    Manage vendor and partner relationships effectively to ensure quality delivery

    Lead continuous improvement initiatives, identifying automation and efficiency opportunities within the platform

    Drive adoption of platform solutions that improve efficiency and productivity across the organisation

    Make informed decisions based on data, insights, and business priorities

    Navigate complex scenarios with a proactive, solution-oriented mindset

    Manage budget and resources with a cost-conscious and value-driven approach

    Govern platform documentation, configuration standards, and compliance requirements

    Together as a team

    You will be part of Group Digital, where we lead the development, delivery, and operation of digital products and platforms that enable IKEA to stay competitive and relevant. You will work in Group Function Digital Area.
