Requirements

What we're looking for

  • Problem-solving capacity: Strong orientation to action ("making things happen"), seeking viable and sustainable alternatives in the face of day-to-day operational blocks.
  • Own initiative and proactivity: Ability to anticipate the needs of Management and the teams, identifying bottlenecks before they become problems.
  • Digital Mindset: Natural curiosity and interest in understanding how software systems (DMS/IMS), cloud environments, and web architectures work.
  • Empathetic leadership and close communication: Ability to build trust, listen actively, and connect with very diverse profiles (development, business, executives, and clients).
  • Clear, assertive, and fluid communication: Ease in synthesizing and transmitting complex ideas with simplicity, transparency, and consideration, fostering an agile and constructive working environment.
  • Teamwork and cohesion: Collaborative and humble attitude that promotes alignment between departments, facilitating consensus without imposing.
  • Academic background: University degree in Engineering (Computer Science, Telecommunications, Industrial, Industrial Organization, or related) or in the Business area (ADE, Economics, Business Analytics), always with a marked interest in the technological environment.
  • Previous experience: Previous experience is not an essential requirement. 1 or 2 years of experience in analytical support, project management, consulting, or operational coordination functions would be valued.
  • Technological vocation and affinity (Digital Mindset): Natural curiosity, fluency, and ease in understanding technical concepts (software, cloud environments, data, and digital tools), regardless of whether the original training is technical or business-oriented.
  • Analytical capacity and tools: Ability for data structuring, monitoring indicators (KPIs), and fluent use of spreadsheets and presentation tools for executive reporting.
  • Upper-intermediate English level. It is fundamental to have the necessary fluency to maintain conversations with international partners, clients, or suppliers.

Nice to have

Although they are not indispensable requirements, we positively value:

  • Complementary training: Master's degree or specialized courses in Project Management, data analytics, digital transformation, or Junior MBA.
  • Knowledge of methodologies and management: Familiarity with agile methodologies (Agile, Scrum, Kanban) or project and task management tools (Jira, Confluence, Trello, or similar).
  • Sector knowledge: Interest or previous experience in the corporate software sector (SaaS, DMS/IMS) or in the automotive/mobility industry.

  • Permanent contract.
  • A great working environment.
  • Real possibilities for professional development.

  • Interdepartmental coordination: Act as a link between Management, development teams, support, and business, unblocking operational bottlenecks.
