Epidemic Group is looking for a CEO Trainee in Stockholm. For twelve months you will work next to the CEO, from the discussion where a decision is made to the follow-up that makes it happen.

Why This Role

You will prepare material for the leadership team and the board, keep strategic initiatives moving across the Group, and take on projects of your own as you earn trust. Very few people get this view this early, and fewer get the trust that comes with it.

What You Will Do

Prepare briefings, analysis and follow-ups for the CEO, the leadership team and the board, and structure decision material on strategic, operational and commercial questions
Work directly with leaders across the Group's businesses to track strategic initiatives, coordinate priorities and keep things moving
Take ownership of defined projects set by the CEO

What You Bring

A Master's degree (or equivalent), completed or about to be completed, in business, economics, engineering or a related field
A track record of leadership, for example through student organisations, case competitions or founding something of your own
A proactive, hands-on approach and an analytical mind: you are comfortable moving between big-picture strategy and the details, and you figure things out rather than wait to be told
Excellent written and spoken English
Strong social skills, and the judgement and discretion to handle confidential and commercially sensitive material

The Practicalities

One-year fixed-term traineeship, on-site at our Stockholm office, reporting directly to the CEO. Start date: as soon as possible.

Application Process

Please apply in English. The process includes a logic test, interviews and a case.
