Would you like to help develop the next generation of IKEA product and range communication?

- What on earth is this you might think?

Product and Range Communication is the way we at IKEA define all product related communication that are there to support the customer journey when interacting with us and our products. It is one of the key ingredients in the IKEA retail system, and plays a major role when customers interact with IKEA.

Range and product communication provide all information you need to search, find, choose, purchase, use and recycle the products you buy from us. Just to mention a few things. There are many more of which we are more than happy to talk about when we meet.

Retail is facing major changes and many of these are to be found in the capabilities that retailers have, or have not, to adapt to the digital landscape. IKEA has decided to redefine how, when and where we share information with our customers about the IKEA product range and offer.
