RELEX Solutions create cutting-edge optimization software to help retailers and consumer brands drive profitable growth. With growth comes opportunities, and we embrace both. Within our platforms, our teams are driving change, working with international colleagues and the latest tech stack to develop solutions that transform into a pioneering end product; it’s tangible, impactful and sustainable – for our customers and the world.

Our Product Team 

RELEX Product team is pivotal in ensuring our continued growth. We build industry-leading products that fulfil the needs of the world’s largest and most advanced retailers and manufacturers. Our products use advanced cutting-edge technology like AI and ML while being user-friendly and efficient to use for the thousands of users we have. We have the happiest customers in our industry, and our customers couldn’t run their daily operations without RELEX. What’s more, through optimizing our customers’ supply chains, we save 11m kg of food waste every year. We are proud of our culture: we have a strong, talented, and ambitious team who enjoy their work and have lots of fun together. 

We are now looking for 2 Analysts to become a part of the RELEX family in Helsinki. You’ll join the Product Adoption team (part of the Forecasting and Replenishment (F&R) product department) of 7 people, who will help you succeed in your new role. The team is committed to ensuring that our Operations colleagues can effectively deploy the F&R product for our customers. You will support the team in achieving this goal by designing, producing, and delivering supporting materials for our internal and external customer base, managing different projects, and assisting in providing all these. 

This position is ideal for students: it is a full-time commitment during the summertime, and with good performance we have the option to extend to a part-time contract (approx. 15 hours per week) into autumn and beyond, once studies resume.  

What you’ll be doing: 
As an Analyst in Product Adoption, you will work with subject matter experts and other stakeholders to enable our user community to use RELEX to its fullest. A significant part of this role involves building training material as the basis of eLearning for our products, but it also includes responsibility for other projects, e.g. in the past couple of years our analysts have each led work that delivers some the department’s most important and game-changing initiatives. This is a great position to learn more about how the RELEX F&R application works, the retail supply chain in general, and activities that drive product adoption in enterprise technology. 

In this role, you will: 

• Create professional training materials for conversion into engaging eLearning courses.
• Manage the enablement initiatives through their lifecycle, from the initial idea, through all the review stages to their development.
• Continuously develop your own expertise with regards to RELEX F&R solutions.
• Grow professionally within the supply chain, retail and technology. 

As examples, in the last year our analysts have worked on… 

• A data pipeline project involving different stakeholders across many departments, while also learning and constructing a solution using databases and query languages.
• Analyzing customer survey data for our department, delivering a Power BI report to visualize the results, and presenting the insights internally.
• A tooling pilot for customers, which includes creating a solution, communicating with our Customer Operations department, and implementing the solution to suitable customer environments. 

We’re looking for: 

• A willingness to learn to use the RELEX system and the different topics related to forecasting and replenishment
• A willingness to learn technical skills as needed to support our development initiatives (for example, SQL, Power BI, etc)
• Prioritization and project management skills
• Excellent attention to detail
• Resourcefulness in solving problems and overcoming challenges
• Excellent communication skills, both spoken and written English
• Expertise in PowerPoint
• Confident in building working relationships with colleagues and different stakeholders
• A 2nd-year student or higher in relevant studies, e.g. supply chain, logistics, or industrial engineering
• Willingness to work onsite in Helsinki 

What we consider as an advantage: 

• Experience in supply chain-related work
• Experience using the RELEX system
• Experience in training, coaching, or mentoring
• Experience in producing supporting materials for different stakeholders
