**About Autralis**:
As part of its mission to strive for smooth and sustainable mobility for all, D'Ieteren Automotive is deploying a strategy in the field of re-marketing and repairs. A centrale role here is being taken over by our subsidiary Autralis, which specialises in digital tools for car companies and rental and distribution companies.
Autralis is a dynamic, digital, and innovative company based in Merelbeke near Gent. Autralis is responsible for developing digital solutions on which major market players operate used car and online new car sales activities. Autralis is a subsidiary of D’Ieteren and offers its services and solutions to different customers of the Belgian and European Markets.

Our two major products:

- Digital experience: the front-end e-commerce platform through which we interact with customers B2B, B2C, etc.
- Expert: the back-office which is used by internal users for stock management, operational flow follow-up, market and data intelligence, etc.

Acting independently as a SaaS start-up with scale-up ambition growth, Autralis is led by two profiles:

- COO (Chief Operating Officer) responsible for business development, stakeholder management, HR and financial management
- CT&PO (Chief Technology & Product Officer) responsible for product development and continuous improvement of the tech stack

**About the COO function**:
To stimulate Business & Working model and to ensure efficient Business operations of Autralis, we need a strong experimented COO (Chief Operating Officer).

As COO you play a key role in the further development and growth to scale-up, as you will oversee both the strategic planning and the day-to-day operations of the company, ensuring that our activities run smoothly and are aligned with our strategic objectives.

In your role as COO, you will be responsible for the following:
1. **Strategic planning**: Working closely with the Strategy Board, and the Chief Technology & Product Owner (Ct&PO), you will take the lead to propose/develop and execute a strategic plan for the company. You will identify key opportunities, challenges and develop a roadmap for growth and success.
Ensure that digital initiatives are fully integrated with the strategic-planning process, including leadership commitment and resource allocation.

2. **Scalability**: As Autralis grows, we will need to scale our operations, and the COO helps Autralis to do that efficiently. You will develop and implement processes and systems that enable to manage growth effectively.

3. **Expertise**: COO brings expertise and experience to our startup Autralis, especially in areas such as operations, finance, and management. This will help us navigate the complexities of running a business. COO typically has a wealth of operational experience in the context of a SaaS company and can help to streamline processes, optimize resources, and improve overall efficiency.

4. **Sales**:COO jointly with the CT&PO are responsible for creating and implementing a sales strategy that aligns with the overall business objectives of the company.
- He/She oversees the day-to-day operations of the sales activities, including managing the sales pipeline/backlog of Business Requirements, and tracking sales/progress metrics.

- Time management: It can be challenging to manage many responsibilities all effectively. COO facilitates the daily management of the company, by taking some of the load off the plate, allowing everyone to focus on the areas of the business where there is the most impact.
- Team management: As Autralis grows, COO recruits and manages team, build a team to help to execute the vision, and ensure that everyone is working together effectively.
