Head of Vodafone Global Enterprise NL
Since the merger of Vodafone and Ziggo in the Netherlands, new challenges emerged in managing the dual responsibilities of Vodafone Global Enterprise and VodafoneZiggo. To continue serving multinational clients through VGE, while also creating a successful future for VodafoneZiggo locally, VGE NL is looking for an exceptionally strong leader. This role is all about finding creative solutions for challenges in a highly dynamic market, while successfully managing senior stakeholders whose priorities and perspectives are not always aligned. The candidate who can solve this challenge unlocks massive potential for VGE, VodafoneZiggo, and his or her own career.
Vodafone is one of the world's leading telco players. The company has a strong history of operating through a nationally focused organization structure, with a country CEO and local P&L. In addition, to successfully serve its ~1400 global clients, Vodafone operates through Vodafone Global Enterprise. VGE is again organized in different locations, in order to serve global clients in their head office country or in countries where they have a strong presence. Each national Vodafone head office delegates authority to VGE, to manage the relations with and revenue from these multinational clients. In the Netherlands, Vodafone and Ziggo merged into a joint venture in 2016. While this allowed Vodafone to better serve its local customers, it complicated the way of working with VGE. Operating as a joint venture with equal ownership, VodafoneZiggo continues to serve the (global) interests of Vodafone, while also focusing on a successful future of the joint enterprise. VGE Netherlands is faced with the challenge of continuing to serve its clients in the best way possible – from both a Vodafone Global perspective and a VodafoneZiggo perspective.
