We believe in a culture of inclusion, where everyone has a place and all applications are considered based on merit, without discrimination. 
This is your opportunity to join an international group with a project that needs you to help meet the challenges of digital transformation.

We are looking for a #TechTalent to perform duties as a Demand & Portfolio Manager for a internacional project in the Industry and Engineer sector.

 

🙂 YOUR DAY TO DAY

Demand Management & Prioritization

  • Manage IT demand intake process, including structuring, categorization, and prioritization
  • Maintain the IT portfolio backlog as the single source of truth for all requests
  • Lead weekly alignment meetings with BU IT Leads and communicate prioritization decisions clearly
  • Ensure security and compliance requirements are validated before implementation
  • Produce monthly portfolio reports covering demand volumes, priorities, backlog, and stakeholder feedback

Exit Support & Handover

  • Coordinate demand freeze processes during transition phases
  • Prepare and manage IT handover packs for each BU
  • Conduct structured handover sessions and secure formal sign-off
  • Update portfolio scope and adjust capacity planning post-transition

Stakeholder Management

  • Manage competing priorities and escalate conflicts when necessary
  • Ensure all decisions are clearly documented and communicated in writing


💡 WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
 

  • 4-6 years in IT Demand Management, IT Business Relationship Management or IT Portfolio Management.
  • Proven ability to manage multi-stakeholder environments where competing priorities are the norm.
  • Comfortable delivering unwelcome decisions — structured refusals, deferrals, scope reductions to senior business stakeholders.
  • Hands-on experience with IT portfolio or service management tooling (ServiceNow, Jira, Azure DevOps or equivalent).
  • Strong written communication skills: strong written communication skills are required; decision logs, not just meeting notes.
  • Fluent English; German, Dutch or another European language is advantageous.
