Join one of the most exciting Digital Transformation journeys of your career!
To support our growth agenda, we are streamlining our entire value chain by replacing both global and local solutions. During the next 6-8 years, we expect to replace more than 100 applications, implementing new CRM, ERP, and integrating audiology, contact center solutions as well as enable operational reporting in 20+ markets.
This transformation cannot succeed without focused attention on building the right solutions and building the solutions, right.
We have established a program that spans both business and IT, and crosses international borders – to fulfill our goals while ensuring that we create the right solutions effectively. We execute according to SAFe methodology and as we gain more experience, we refine and improve the way we work and collaborate.
Your first project will be to lead the onboarding of an acquired company to an existing platform. There could also be tasks in relation to implementation of a “global” solution to ensure we live up to e-invoicing requirements across our sites. Later next year you will be involved in or leading onboarding of our countries to the new Global Template after a final scoping exercise – in collaboration with the product teams as well as our OCM track.
Key Responsibilities
As a Senior Project Manager, your responsibilities would include:
- Project management and scrum mastering (resource and team management) with focus on implementation as well as facilitation of local adjustments (Requirements Gathering and Change Management).
- Stakeholder Management of global finance function and local market team - as well as “Local StC” with involvement of Global Market Managers.
- Monitoring and ensuring progress.
- Removal of impediments (through Head of ERP Solutions, Customer Engagement and “local StC’s).
- Test Management (especially market / country UAT) together with the Test manager.
- Ensure training of end-users – together with the OCM team.
- Migration – based on how we have done it in the past – with the migration team.
- Cutover & post-Go live support.
- Handover to Support (PL IT Support and Local Business Support team).
- Etc.

This role is based at our headquarters in Smørum, just outside Copenhagen, with some flexibility to work from home - as per agreement. You can expect to travel approximately 20-30 days per year, often alongside colleagues.
At Demant, we believe that work is more than just tasks. It’s also about teamwork, learning, and shared experiences, especially when traveling.
How to Succeed in This Role
This transformation will run for the next 7-8 years. In the early stages, our focus will be on building the foundation across all markets/countries – and then about mid next year, start onboarding markets to the new template, while adjusting to legal requirements not already in the global template.

- Focus on being result oriented and taking clear ownership for assigned tasks as well as leading team(s) to success.
- An open mindset that encourages taking initiative and leading efforts effectively.
- Certification(s) within Program or Project Management.
- Industry knowledge (retail) is an advantage but not a requirement.
Personal qualities that will help you succeed in this role include:
- You are adept at communicating with stakeholders at multiple levels and facilitating projects in an international and multicultural context with knowledgeable team members.
- You are structured and able to establish and maintain clarity and transparency.
- Lastly, you like to engage with peers, team members and external suppliers to help create trusted partnerships.
