Cabonline

Strategy & Transformation Associate

Cabonline is the market leading provider of taxi services in the Nordics, with 16 well-known brands, 5,000 vehicles in four countries and 88 cities, and a revenue of 5.5 billion SEK (2022). Cabonline contains a series of Nordic brands, such as Sverigetaxi, TaxiKurir, TopCab, Flygtaxi, Norgestaxi, Kovanen, Taxi Skåne, Taxi Väst, Umeå Taxi and Taxi 4x27.

The taxi market is in a disruptive state where Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS) players are increasingly challenging traditional orchestrators. With the largest vehicle fleet and extensive B2P-positioning Cabonline is well positioned to act upon its newly formulated growth journey and agenda.

The Strategy & Transformation team is a cross-functional unit with direct access and reporting to Group Management, with a mandate to formulate and spearhead strategic growth initiatives and drive transformation. The team reports to the Chief Strategy & Transformation Officer (Group CSTO), led by Head of Group Strategy and is currently looking to expand the team with one new team member – Strategy & Transformation Associate.

Both Group CSTO and Head of Group Strategy have a long background and experience from strategy and management consulting. The aim is to build and grow an in-house management consulting and strategy ‘power-house’ within the firm, to enable Cabonline to realize its strategic initiatives. Current ongoing select strategic focus areas include:

  • Launching a market-leading taxi booking app across the Nordics
  • Centralizing Nordic operations and processes (necessary due to past acquisition-driven growth)
