It takes a dream to create a successful business idea. It takes people to make dreams a reality. Could you be one of those people?

The founder of IKEA had a very powerful vision… to improve everyday life for the majority of people. Since the establishment of the first IKEA store almost 50 years ago, we have gone a very long way towards realizing this dream. A key success factor has been the recruitment of committed individuals who have shared the IKEA vision and pulled together to turn it into a reality. Today, IKEA has indeed become a very tangible reality! It is a worldwide organization employing thousands of people in many different countries. Literally every day IKEA reaches that much further, which is why we need to continue finding and recruiting more committed individuals to join our organization.

A simple HR idea

We have a very clear and simple idea when it comes to Human Resources: To give down-to-earth, straight forward people the opportunity to grow, both as individuals and in their professional roles, so that together we are strongly committed to creating a better everyday life for ourselves and our customers.

If you think you might be one of those people, read on...

IKEA values

At IKEA, we don’t just want to fill jobs; we want to partner with people. We want to recruit unique individuals who share our values. Co-workers are not restricted at IKEA; we listen and support each individual to identify his or her needs, ambitions and capabilities.

IKEA co-workers enjoy many advantages and opportunities from working in such a free and open environment – but all freedoms are counter-balanced with expectations. For example, the expectation that each co-worker is able to assume responsibility for his or her own actions.

Stores/retail

The store is where our visitors meet IKEA face to face. We want to give our visitors plenty of ideas, solutions and inspiration. It should be fun and easy to shop and the customers should be able to do most of their shopping by themselves. When a visitor needs assistance, a well-informed and friendly co-worker should be on hand to attend to his or her needs.

Product development

IKEA of Sweden AB (IoS) based in Älmhult, Sweden, develops and makes the IKEA range available to stores and customers all over the world. Our aim is to offer a wide range of well-designed, functional home furnishing products at prices so low that as many people as possible will be able to afford them.

Purchasing

Co-workers in this area form a bridge between the factory floor and the products on the shelves at IKEA stores. They are responsible for ensuring reliable production methods that lead to high quality results, but which at the same time involve the minimum waste and maximum efficiency

Distribution/warehouse

Trucks, boats and trains are all needed to move products around. Coordinating these different means of transport to make the movement of goods as quick and efficient as possible is a real art!

Support functions

The support functions exist in order to enable the work of IKEA purchasing, distribution, product development and sales.
