The Copacker Management Team acts as an interface between Red Bull’s functional areas and Red Bull’s copackers. As the central interface, the team is a key driver of collaboration and alignment – championing Red Bull’s interests with copackers, while also representing copackers’ needs and perspectives within Red Bull.
In this role, you take full ownership of projects end-to-end: from the first idea and scoping of concrete requirements, through process design, all the way to seamless go-live. You independently steer and monitor your projects, always keeping a holistic, end-to-end perspective and proactively surfacing cross-functional dependencies and business impact. Close collaboration and strong coordination with stakeholders across the Business Triangle (Operations, IT, Global Data) and with all copackers will define your day-to-day work and give you a direct hand in shaping Red Bull’s operations network.
