You will also become part of the management group in the group and participate in management meetings together with our other department heads.

About you

We imagine that you are a trained auto painter with several years of experience. It is not essential that you have leadership experience. The most important thing is that you want to lead people, can create an overview and are the type who leads from the front when needed. You thrive with customer contact and have ambitions to take responsibility for a department at all levels – both staff, customers, quality, operations and results.

Qualifications

We place emphasis on you

  • Are independent, solution-oriented and proactive
  • Can prioritize and structure tasks for yourself and others
  • Are outgoing, curious and have engagement and drive
  • Are a team player with good social skills
  • Have good communication skills in Danish and preferably English

  • Thrive in the dynamic and pace found in a make-to-order company

We offer

You will be part of a strong team in the department and at the same time part of a larger network of department leaders across Byens Bilpleje.com. Here you will have the opportunity for ongoing sparring with competent colleagues in an organization with open possibilities and good humor.

You will receive a thorough introductory program, where in the first period you will tour different parts of the company – also in production. We do this because we believe the best leader understands the business, processes, customers and the everyday life of employees. There is a clear ambition to continue developing the business, and you will have the opportunity to play a central role in this development.

We offer, of course, a competitive salary as well as a pension.
