Digital Platforms Executive

Location

Reading, Berkshire | United Kingdom

Job description

We are Porsche. We are home to what is, in the extraordinary scale of the automotive world, a small family of passionate enthusiasts - established in 1948 and run in Stuttgart to this day by the same family that bears the company name.
