Who we are
We're bold thinkers and kind teammates, growing fast but staying grounded. Our Nordic roots and global outlook shape a culture of friendliness, creativity, and collaboration, powered by openness and shared wins. We care deeply about doing the right thing – and doing it together.
We aim to improve the flow of goods, time, and energy. We know we can't shape the future by clinging to the past, so we keep evolving – together.
What we do
RELEX Solutions delivers a unified supply chain and commercial planning platform for retailers and manufacturers, enabled by proven AI technology. Our platform spans demand forecasting, replenishment, merchandising, pricing and promotions, assortment, space planning, and production planning across the full value chain.
With a global team of over 2,000 professionals, we work side-by-side with our customers to solve real problems with lasting impact. We are known for fast implementations and measurable commercial outcomes – and our consulting team is central to making that happen.
The role
In response to our fast growth and market expansion, we are looking for a Senior Merchandising Consultant to work across customer engagements in category management implementation and ongoing service delivery.
This is a hybrid role: you will configure our platform end to end and bring real merchandising judgment to the customers you work with. It is not a pure advisory seat, and it is not a pure technical seat.
What makes this role different
The hard part of this job is not the configuration. Our platform is UI-driven, and technical consultants support anything that lives in the database or the backend. The hard part is understanding the customer's world well enough to guide them toward a better way of working.
Your job is to understand the customer’s strategy and implement our tool according to that strategy, not according to the workarounds they have lived with for years. That means walking in with an opinion. When a category manager asks “what do you expect us to do here?” you should have a recommendation, grounded in how the work gets done.
Retail experience is what makes the difference here. When you understand how category decisions actually get made, you can ask the right questions early, help the customer move past old workarounds quickly, and focus the engagement on what will actually drive results.
What you'll do
- Work on customer engagements across one or more of our category management solutions, contributing to the full project lifecycle from discovery through go-live
- Contribute to discovery and process design workshops with customer teams – help structure the conversation, ask the right questions, and make sure the right people are in the room
