Lime is the largest global shared micromobility business, operating in close to 30 countries across five continents. We’re on a mission to build a future where transportation is shared, affordable and carbon-free. Our electric bikes and scooters have powered more than one billion rides in cities around the world. Named a 2025 Time 100 Most Influential Company, Lime continues to set the pace for shared micromobility globally, spurring a new generation of clean alternatives to car ownership.

We are looking for a Senior Manager of Strategy & Planning to run the operational engine for Lime in EMEA. In this role, you own the "operating system" for the region - taking high-level business goals and turning them into the actual plans that our local markets follow.

You’ll be the key bridge between executive strategy and regional execution. Your job is to ensure our assets are in the right places, our cross-functional teams (Finance, Ops, Supply Chain) are aligned, and our biggest regional problems are getting solved.

This is a remote position with a requirement for candidates to reside in the United Kingdom, France, Germany, or Italy to maintain effective collaboration across teams.

What You’ll Do:

  • Strategic Execution: Own the management of regional assets by turning high-level strategic plans into actionable market-level transactions. Set specific targets against the function’s OKRs and oversee their execution across cross-functional teams.

  • Operational Leadership: Lead complex projects involving Supply Chain, Logistics, Finance, and Local Operations. Responsible for steering the team through established procedures and ensuring smooth allocation, especially in peak season or market launches.

  • Financial & Resource Planning: Partner with Finance and Ops teams to support annual planning, budget forecasting, and ensure optimal allocation across European and ME markets

  • Stakeholder Influence: Be the go-to support for local markets, helping respond to day-to-day questions, unblock operational issues, and track ongoing needs to escalate to senior leadership when needed.

  • Data-Driven Decision Making: Use data to drive decision-making, developing models and tools to optimize how we allocate resources based on performance, growth, and efficiency.

  • Process Architecture: Beyond identifying improvements, design and implement scalable planning and reporting frameworks to streamline fleet and battery planning and allocation.

About You:

  • 6+ years of experience in management consulting, strategy and operations, or leadership roles within high-growth companies.

  • A proven track record of not just leading projects, but steering teams and managing complex functional areas through ambiguity.

  • Ability to tackle goal-oriented tasks independently, adhering to operational policies while selecting the best methods to solve multifaceted problems.

  • Highly skilled at conveying complex ideas and building consensus across all levels of the organization; able to influence both policy and operational shifts.

  • Exceptional ability to interpret data into actionable insights for diverse stakeholders; proficiency in Excel/Google Sheets is required, with a strong preference for candidates who can oversee SQL and dashboard creation.

  • A sharp eye for detail coupled with the ability to manage multiple major workstreams without losing sight of the broader organizational impact.

  • Bachelor’s Degree is required; Master’s Degree or MBA is a plus
