Project Management – Supply Chain – International role

Stokke has had an outsourced manufacturing of Tripp Trapp in Eastern Europe since 1972. The production has improved continuously, and has today a set-up with 3 different manufacturers. With a new strategy in place, the focus on Tripp Trapp will be even stronger, and we still see great opportunities for further growth. Internally we have strong competencies within the existing set-up (processes, product and material), but we experience somewhat skepticism to take the next great leap in our supply chain of Tripp Trapp. Therefore we would like to bring in external competencies and fresh eyes to lead the work with analyzing and implementing a future supply chain of Tripp Trapp. Stokke is seeking an experienced person to lead the work with supply chain innovation of Tripp Trapp. The person needs to understand and challenge the total value chain, from the arrival of raw material, till goods are distributed to our customers, including product architecture.
