In this role, you will lead new venture tracks from exploration to acceleration and scale-up, working closely with product, data, and go-to-market experts to turn ideas into tangible business lines.

What We Have To Offer

  • Direct involvement in some of the most innovative tracks within telecom from day one.
  • Exposure to corporate innovation and the startup & scale-up ecosystem in Belgium.
  • Opportunities to further develop your expertise and collaborate closely with senior management.

  • A dynamic work environment with colleagues as passionate about innovation as you are.
