Digital Transformation Support
Since 1992, we have been shaping the digital world of companies and organisations of all sizes and sectors. Locally, nationally, and globally. We are far more than just consultants, creators of ideas and impulses, or pure implementers. We see ourselves as pioneers and companions in digitalisation. We advise on digital transformation and build brands in all channels, for key touchpoints, different devices, and international markets. This results in exciting projects with varied and interdisciplinary positions.
At our locations in Munich, Berlin, Frankfurt, Cologne or on-site at the client's premises, we work on the digital core of renowned companies: Audi, Austrian Airlines, Bayern Tourismus, BMW, BRITA, BSH Hausgeräte, Deutsche Bahn, Linde, MAN, McDonald's, National Geographic Deutschland, Voith, WMF and Zeppelin.

What you can expect from us:
Meaningful projects: We don’t just communicate and make PowerPoint slide decks. We develop and support our clients in the long term – in exciting industries and technologies. We work with end users and management. We don’t just make recommendations; we also build and develop. We experience the effects of our work – and use this knowledge to improve.
Your ideal workplace: Remotely from your home office, in one of our beautiful city centre hubs in Berlin, Frankfurt am Main or Munich – or a mixture of both? Crucial: Where can you work most easily and efficiently with your team and your clients? Whether you prefer a Mac or PC, we provide you with the optimal equipment.
Consultancy and travel: In our projects, we have a say as to when on-site appointments make sense – and when they do not. This lets us reduce travel as well as act sustainably.
Work-life balance: We offer fair overtime compensation from the first minute on, flexible working hours and sabbaticals.
Family-friendly: We have many parents in our teams – working both full- & part-time. In Munich, we even have some reserved childcare spots at a partner nursery school.
Mobility: Do you have a customer appointment that’s inconvenient to reach with public transportation? Then grab one of our hybrid company automobiles from the vehicle pool.
Communication – inside and outside of our teams: We keep in touch and stick together. Online and offline. We provide good project onboarding – together we find out where and how you can have the best impact. Various team and Ray Sono formats provide support and create space for internal communication.
Continuing education & career paths: You participate in our numerous internal “Ray Academy” formats and create a personal development plan with your manager – including external coaching or customised training measures. Regardless of whether your long-term goal is personnel responsibility, professional leadership, or something else entirely, we support you along your journey.
Become part of our culture: Whether you are the top scorer in the “RasenMayors” Football Club, have the best skateboard or inline skating choreography in the “RollingRays” or are a new singing talent in “RayC/DC”, our own band, you’ll definitely find like-minded people. You can also get involved in one of our pro bono projects (“Ray Helps”) and assist the Tabaluga Children’s Foundation, for example.
