Strategy and Operations Manager (m/f/x)

This role is a central function within the regional team of Germany, supporting the successful execution of Wolt Germany's strategy 2025 through strategic and operational cross-functional project planning and alignment, ensuring all functions’ and teams’ resources are allocated and effectively used towards the successful achievement of the company’s goal.

This role works closely with the German regional leadership, focusing on the assessment and evaluation of potential future business opportunities and projects supported by thorough strategic analysis with data-based recommendations on execution and prioritization.

You will:

1. Collaborate cross-functionally with local and global teams (commercial, finance, operations, marketing, etc.) to define short-, mid-, and long-term project objectives, deliverables, and success metrics.
2. Create and maintain high-quality documentation for project scope, roadmaps, frameworks, and action plans.
3. Provide regular updates and reports to leadership on project progress and strategy alignment.
4. Ensure successful completion of action items on target deadlines.
5. Facilitate workshops and meetings to gather insights and align on priorities.
6. Build and execute the strategy with the wider team, getting their hands dirty together to build the highest level of service and the best customer experience in Germany.

Our humble expectations

1. 6+ years of work experience in management consulting, tech, investment banking, corporate strategy, business development, or related field; high-growth startup experience is strongly preferred.
2. Ability to influence senior leaders, working independently and as part of a team in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.
3. Excellent written and oral communication skills in English, with an eye for detail and a passion for presenting data and information in clear, compelling ways.
4. Brilliant data analysis skills - exceptional ability to frame and synthesize complex business problems into clear, concise, and easy-to-understand solutions.
5. Solid track record of identifying, scoping, and delivering customer-centric solutions with a detail-oriented yet flexible approach to problem-solving.
6. Natural tendency for ownership: we grow quickly, everyone has too much stuff to do, and just because something’s not in your job description doesn’t mean you shouldn’t do it.
