Lead Business Consultant - Production IT & MES
Do you see yourself in a key role where you connect people, processes, and IT to drive business-critical change? If so, you might be our next Lead Business Consultant.
In this role, you will be a trusted advisor with strong relationships across our global organization. You'll work closely with business stakeholders and developers to shape solutions that matter – turning real-world challenges into smarter ways of working on the shop floor, while creating transparency through data.
With sustainability, digitization, and operational excellence at the core, Danish Crown is undergoing an ambitious business transformation. Our department is the go-to partner when we innovate in one of our 50+ production sites - whether it's introducing new processes or technologies, increasing automation, replacing legacy systems, enhancing traceability with data, or tackling other complex challenges. We take ownership from start to finish - analyzing needs, proposing solutions, creating functional descriptions, and delivering full-scale development and implementation.

Is fluent in English and Danish
Brings additional language skills, such as German, or knowledge of SAP and Arolink – both considered advantages, but not requirements
As a Lead, you are expected to be an ambassador of our domain by taking ownership, promoting our standards and agreed ways of working, and acting as a supportive team player and sparring partner for your colleagues.
What do we offer?
We offer flexibility in work hours and place, autonomy, and the chance to work in a team with great ambitions to digitalize and improve the shop floor. We care about your growth and career goals, and we'll have an active focus on supporting your development.




We value a flat and informal culture where all voices matter and contributions are expected and appreciated – because the best solutions are created together, with close collaboration between IT and the business. You will have the opportunity to influence and shape our production processes and how they are supported by IT.
Our modern HQ in Randers offers excellent facilities, including a fitness centre, two padel courts, a food shop, and - of course - a great canteen with high-quality food (unsurprisingly!).
Your department: Production – Part of Global IT
You will be part of an informal yet highly professional environment that values mutual trust, respect, responsibility, humor, and good manners.
Production is part of Danish Crown's Global IT department, headquartered in Randers. Global IT operates as a global IT competence centre for both new and existing solutions, with more than 270 colleagues located in Denmark, Poland, Sweden, and Germany – approximately 150 of whom are based at our Randers HQ.
You will be part of a team of consultants, technical project managers, and developers working on systems that keep production running efficiently and provide critical data and traceability – turning operational complexity into actionable insight. We are on a journey to simplify and standardise our production IT landscape, and we are looking for someone who wants to help shape that future.
