Commercial Strategy & Excellence Lead (f/m/d)

As Commercial Strategy & Excellence Lead, you will be a driving force behind Novelis Europe's commercial performance — rooted in hands‑on, insight-driven work rather than abstract strategy exercises, translating directly into commercial impact. You will help shape our commercial strategy across segments, but more importantly, you will actively drive business development and build and implement business‑critical processes together with the sales teams and internal functions - from winning new business and building robust business cases to executing contracts, supported by clear standards and processes, automation and innovative thinking along the way. As sustainability is a integral part of our corporate strategy, this role also gives you meaningful scope to work on some of the most current and relevant topics in our industry. We are looking for someone with the drive to dig deep into new topics, who enjoys working with a wide range of stakeholders and can win them over — through personality as much as through the skills and expertise you bring and continue to build on the job. You will join a genuinely interdisciplinary team that is still taking shape, which is an ideal opportunity to grow with it. Expect a high degree of ownership and room to shape your own work: there is significant scope for impact, and the ambition is for you and the team to shape how far we take it. This is a unique opportunity to combine hands‑on commercial impact with broader business and strategy exposure in an international, sustainability-driven environment.
