RELEX Solutions create cutting-edge supply chain and retail planning software. Within our platforms, we have the power and potential to increase adaptability, efficiency and sustainability in the consumer goods and retail value chain. Our impact is tangible; from sustainability and eliminating waste to delighting customers and delivering great tailored tech solutions, we’re curious and passionate challenge-seekers creating the future of retail today.

We are seeking a highly skilled Atlassian System Specialist to lead the technical ownership and operational support of RELEX’s Jira ecosystem during a critical and complex application transition. This is not a typical admin role — we need a systems expert who combines deep Atlassian product knowledge with scripting ability and an understanding of business-critical workflows across multiple functions.

You will be embedded in the IT Operations team and collaborate closely with business stakeholders, Jira Guild members, service delivery leads, and project managers to stabilize and evolve Jira as a shared service platform.

This role is instrumental in enabling the successful transition from a decentralized Jira Guild support model to a scalable, IT Ops-led service delivery model.

What you will be doing:

Take full technical ownership of RELEX’s Jira Cloud environments, including administration, configuration, user access, and governance
Act as Level 2/3 support for Jira-related incidents and service requests during the transition phase
Work with stakeholders to map and document legacy workflows, automations, and custom configurations
Collaborate with the PM and internal teams to define and implement routing, categorization, and escalation frameworks (e.g. asset-type dropdowns, auto-assignment rules)
Lead efforts to refactor or migrate existing Jira projects where necessary for operational sustainability
Support knowledge transition from legacy Guild members to IT Ops staff
Maintain system integrity and security, ensuring compliance with internal and external requirements
Drive continuous improvement in Jira usage across the business, identifying opportunities to streamline processes or introduce new features

We’re looking for:

4+ years of hands-on experience with Jira Cloud administration in mid-to-large organizations
Strong understanding of Jira project structures, automation rules, custom fields, permission schemes, and workflow design
Experience with ScriptRunner for Jira or similar scripting tools
Ability to write, review, and troubleshoot Groovy scripts, as well as familiarity with Jira REST APIs, JQL, and basic JSON structures
Proven track record managing cross-functional, business-critical Jira environments, ideally within a shared services model
Comfortable working with undocumented or legacy configurations and driving clarity through documentation and structure
Ability to translate business requirements into scalable, system-based solutions
Experience with Confluence, Jira Service Management, Insight (Assets), and Atlassian Marketplace apps
Strong communication skills, with the ability to collaborate with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
Fluent in English; Finnish is a bonus but not required

We we consider as an advantage:

Atlassian certifications (e.g., ACP-120 Jira Administration for Cloud)
Experience in ITSM practices (incident, change, request fulfilment)
Familiarity with integrations (e.g., Slack, Salesforce, Power BI, etc.)
Knowledge of RELEX’s business model or SaaS operations at scale
