WHO YOU ARE

WHY SHOULD YOU JOIN IKEA?

Hej! My name is Nivi and I am privileged to lead Fulfilment Locations engineering teams at IKEA. I thought I would share why I joined IKEA and why I hope you want to join as well:

● Our strong culture and values that we use in our day to day work life and guide us in our decisions. The one closes to my heart are Togetherness and enthusiasm, Simplicity, Lead by example to mention a few.

● The ambitious challenges we are going after:

- How can we help more of the many people have an affordable and better everyday life at home and be more convenient to where they are? At the same time, how can we become truly people and planet positive?

- “Change everything (almost!) - The world is changing, fast. Urbanisation, technology and digitalisation are disrupting and changing retail forever. Going forward, retail will be a mix of digital and physical with excellence in logistics.

● The challenge of transforming such a global iconic brand as IKEA is breath taking – You can read about INGKA’s ‘10 jobs in 3 years’ https://www.ingka.com/what-we-do/ikea-retail/ , 5 of them are underpinned by the amazing work we will do in Fulfilment, Logistics & Inventory Management.

● Our strong belief that diversity in teams delivers better thought through outcomes. We have a high focus on diversity. One example of this is that we have 50% male/female managers within IKEA and the commitment is to have this in every part of the organisation.

● The flexible work life balance. Leaders consistently ensure that my role doesn’t interfere with having a great quality of life out of work – We know when people are happy, they do their best work.
