Digital Transformation Manager

We are a dynamic scale-up and have been revolutionising the Swiss e-commerce market for over 5 years. With our unique platforms — from Brands for Employees to Brands for Students and the MyAXA Deals Platform — we offer exclusive access to leading products and services to closed communities. In partnership with Twint, we also run the majority of Twint Superdeals.

With 80+ passionate team members across Europe, we generate a mid double-digit million turnover and have grown at an average of 70% annually. Awarded the SEF.Growth High Potential Label by the Swiss Economic Forum, we’re on an ambitious journey and you know what — we’re just getting started 🚀.

To strengthen our Digital Transformation & Process Excellence team, we are looking for a Digital Transformation Manager with solid BPM skills and growing Product Ownership capabilities.

This is a role for someone with experience in BPM and project delivery who is eager to grow into a leadership position — with a clear path towards Head of Digital Transformation & Process Excellence. You’ll learn from our Chief Information Officer and work in close collaboration with an experienced IT team.

Place of work: Dällikon, Zurich area — Hybrid

Start: immediately or by arrangement

Your Mission

As a Digital Transformation Manager in our Digital Transformation & Process Excellence team, you sit at the intersection of business, processes, and technology. You analyse how we work today, design how we should work tomorrow, and drive the execution — whether that means optimising a core business process, implementing a major 3rd-party system, or leading the development of an in-house application.

You ensure that processes, systems, and data flows work seamlessly together. You take on Product Ownership of internal tools and applications, ensuring their roadmaps support efficient operations and business growth.

You work in an agile environment (Scrum/SAFe-inspired) and collaborate closely with our CTO, UX/UI Designer, and the wider IT team. Your work directly influences how our company scales — and you'll grow with it, with a clear path towards Head of Digital Transformation & Process Excellence.

👑 Growth & Ownership

• Take ownership of digital transformation initiatives and product delivery — and grow with each challenge
• Build expertise and credibility across BPM, project portfolio management, and Product Ownership
• Grow into the Head of Digital Transformation & Process Excellence role — shaping the function, the team, and the roadmap
• Learn from our CIO and collaborate closely with the CTO and the wider IT team
• Contribute to defining BPM standards, methodologies, and frameworks for the company

Your Profile
