Challenge yourself and us

At Advance
Works, we learn together, grow together, and have fun together. And we do all this while creating great software solutions for clients across many industries and geographies.

We are constantly challenging ourselves and each other to use the latest technologies and the best methodologies and make sure we walk the talk.

Exciting as it may sound, we also have our red lines: each of us is a unique person, with unique opinions, beliefs, options, interests, hopes, and fears. With the right to speak its mind, be mindful of the common goals, and always be constructive.

It is the way we respect each other, discuss different points of view, and challenge ourselves and each other, while tackling our common challenges, that makes us strong. United. Brave. And sure that there will be a better tomorrow, even when we do mistakes. Because we learn from our failures and successes.

What will be your role

In this role, you will act as a Digital Acceleration Consultant, managing the Digital Quick
Wins product and playing a key role in driving digital transformation in our client in the energy sector. You will work closely with senior stakeholders across business units to identify and implement innovative digital solutions aligned with organizational needs by:

• Leading the development and execution of digital initiatives using agile methodologies.
• Building strong relationships with internal stakeholders to promote collaboration across platforms and geographies.
• Identifying digital opportunities and challenges within the business and proposing impactful, scalable solutions.
• Gathering and analyzing detailed project requirements and transforming them into clear and actionable briefings.

Who will work by your side

They will want to know you, and understand your motivations and aspirations, but also your pitfalls and development needs. People that will be there for a personalized
- boarding, to listen to you, and to challenge you. To help you become a better person and professional, challenging you and helping you to challenge yourself. And to invite you for a drink after work (yes, even in remote!), because there is nothing as good and positive as a good laugh.

You’ll also work side by side with our clients, spanning a wide range of industries and countries. And that means working with more bright minds, be empathetic about each other, and always keep in mind that every brilliant piece of software we produce has two objectives: to achieve a specific business goal, and to make the people who built it as successful as you want to be.
