Take ownership:
As our Program Manager, you’ll take ownership and make an impact by:
Program Manage Strategic Initiatives
-
Your first mission is to own the operational execution of strategic initiatives.
- This isn't a theoretical exercise, it's a hands-on race to define and execute every practical detail, from assigning contracts and moving people to setting up new operational workflows, on a non-negotiable timeline.
Turn Blueprints into Reality
- You take high-level legal and strategic plans and translate them into a concrete reality.
- You will bulldoze through ambiguity, creating clear, actionable workstreams, milestones and timeline for everything.
- You own the messy, practical details that others avoid, ensuring nothing is missed between the whiteboard and the real world.
- No fluff, no abstract theories, just relentless execution.
Build the Machine for Scale
- Beyond this initial mission, you will build the playbook for how bunq executes its most complex strategic initiatives.
- Your goal is to create a lean, repeatable "machine" that allows us to launch new entities, integrate partners, and restructure at a pace our competitors can't comprehend, all while maintaining perfect control and clarity.
-
Master of Execution: You have a proven track record of getting huge, complex projects done, period. You've operated in high-intensity environments where results are the only thing that matters. You are a doer, not a consultant or a theorist.
-
Pragmatic Structuring: You can take a massive, ambiguous goal and instantly break it down into clear, logical, and actionable steps. You create structure from chaos and bring clarity to everyone involved.
-
Relentless Drive & Follow-up: You lead through influence, data, and an unstoppable will to hit your deadlines. You hold everyone, including C-level executives, accountable for their part. You don't wait for answers; you chase them down.
-
Thrives in Ambiguity: You are energized by a fast-paced environment where you have to make decisions with 80% of the information. You see a tight deadline not as a threat, but as a challenge to be conquered.
-
You’re an excellent communicator and speak English fluently
