Job Description

What is Onboarding?

EcoVadis’ vision is to enable a new way of doing business where sustainability intelligence influences every business decision. One of our key company values is One Customer at a Time and as there is only one first impression we can make on the customer, it is our objective to be ever-present at that stage to accelerate the change we believe is possible.

The EcoVadis account onboarding team accompanies customers through a series of guided workshops, meetings, and topics, designed to set up a strong and successful foundation for their sustainable procurement goals with EcoVadis. Deploying strategic corporate programs such as a sustainable procurement program, can be challenging for organizations as it requires systematic cultural change and stakeholder adoption in often procurement organizations with large and/or complex supply chains. To ensure the customer gets to the benefits and to the ROI of their EcoVadis SaaS solutions early on, it is critical that all impacted employees, mostly procurement teams, understand how the program works, what they are requested to do and how to integrate EcoVadis in their procurement policies, processes and technologies.

Each customer onboarding is to be seen as a project in itself and will be delivered in a tandem with an Account Onboarding Manager and one an Customer Onboarding Coordinator on 8-12 accounts rolling at a time. Together they drive the operational and strategic elements of customer onboarding  to ensure they have the foundations needed to maximize the value of the EcoVadis solutions as an important piece of their sustainable procurement initiative. The onboarding phase of the customer journey comes to a close when the key onboarding program objectives are achieved, the tactical and strategic roadmap is documented and presented during a customer executive steering committee. After this period, the Onboarding team transitions the customer over to the Customer Success / Account Management team.
