Job Description

Just imagine shaping strategic technology programmes that connect Product, Engineering and Business teams. Then make it real.

About the role

As our Senior Technical Programme Manager, Markets and Channels Technology, you'll lead complex enterprise technology programmes from discovery through delivery and value realisation. You'll bring clarity to competing priorities, connect work across teams and help senior leaders make informed decisions. Through influence rather than direct authority, you'll create the alignment and accountability needed to turn ambitious plans into meaningful outcomes.

Required Qualifications

• Led enterprise technology programmes spanning five or more product teams, multiple functions and senior stakeholder groups, from discovery through delivery and value realisation
• Identified material gaps or architectural misalignment across integrated technology programmes and mobilised the relevant specialists
• Engaged Director and Vice President stakeholders independently to frame programme trade-offs and secure decisions
• Built pragmatic programme governance that clarified programme goals, ownership, milestones, finances, risks and dependencies
• Demonstrated proactive leadership in ambiguous environments, identifying risks, blockers and unresolved decisions early and driving them to resolution
• Communicated complex programme topics clearly and concisely to both technical teams and senior executive

Preferred Qualifications

• Led strategic technology programmes in retail, commerce, store or consumer environments
• Applied product operating models across strategic technology programmes involving Product, Engineering and Business teams
• Brought consulting, transformation or similarly structured problem‑solving experience to complex technology environments
• Managed vendors and implementation partners across strategic technology programmes

What you’ll build

• Programme structures that turn strategic goals into clear outcomes, milestones and accountabilities
• Shared direction across Product, Engineering, Business and market teams
• Decision frameworks that make trade‑offs, dependencies and delivery risks visible
• Governance that keeps programme finances, milestones and outcomes connected
• Effective escalation paths that help teams resolve complex delivery and architectural challenges

Life on the team

You’ll join a collaborative, outcome‑focused delivery community where programme leadership is a team effort. Technical Programme Managers share standard and learnings, build trust across teams and connect Product, Engineering and Business partners. You’ll communicate clearly, facilitate decisions and stay proactive and resilient when priorities shift. Our hybrid rhythm includes at least three office days each week in Copenhagen.

What success looks like

You’ll create clarity and momentum where programme ambiguity spans multiple teams, technologies and stakeholder groups. You’ll establish clear outcomes and ownership, surface risks and trade‑offs early, and enable senior leaders to make timely decisions. Success means programmes with greater alignment, accountability and delivery confidence, with teams focused on achieving measurable outcomes rather than managing process.
