You'll operate at the intersection of planning and execution, evaluate growth opportunities, and manage critical company-wide initiatives. This is a high-visibility role for someone who thrives on turning ambiguity into action and working across various functions in the organization.
Reporting to the VP Strategy & Chief of Staff, you'll balance genuine strategic thinking with hands-on execution, owning projects that directly impact Scandit's trajectory.

Serve as the "get it done" leader for select strategic programs, ensuring project management rigor and stakeholder alignment
Evaluate market opportunities to inform our growth strategy decision as part of our business development efforts to enter new markets
Coordinate cross-functional evaluation processes for strategic opportunities (incl. partnerships and acquisitions), ensuring thorough analysis and stakeholder alignment with Product, Engineering, Finance, GTM, etc.
Synthesize insights and facilitate strategic conversations as part of the Scandit Strategy Process to move from discussion to decisions
Develop frameworks and playbooks that can be applied to future business expansion initiatives
Furthermore, when capacity permits, you will support the Chief of Staff function with:
Assess and evolve our leadership operating rhythm, creating efficient processes that drive alignment without creating organizational overhead
Build and maintain our organizational playbook: documenting key processes, clarifying ownership, and ensuring consistency across teams
Identify opportunities to streamline or sunset legacy programs while preserving what works
Who You Are
2–6 years of experience in strategy consulting, corporate strategy, or chief of staff roles
Proven track record of leading complex, cross-functional projects from conception to completion
Strong analytical capabilities, paired with excellent judgement, with the ability to synthesize complex information into clear recommendations
Experience facilitating senior-level discussions and building stakeholder consensus
Clear and concise written and verbal communication skills in English
Experience with M&A due diligence and post-merger integration
Process design mindset: you see patterns, build frameworks, and create reusable solutions
Comfort operating at both strategic and tactical levels - you can think big and execute small
Self-starter mentality with high ownership and low ego
Ability to build credibility quickly with senior leaders and cross-functional teams
Candidates with a background in fast-growth technology companies or scale-ups would be advantageous
