Mercedes-Benz.io

We digitize for a better tomorrow of mobility. Therefore, we are kickstarting a new way of working and transforming Mercedes-Benz with customer-centricity and agility.
IO stands for input/output. We translate input from our customers into outputs of digital experiences such as the Mercedes-Benz worldwide website, its eCommerce platform as well as off-car digital services. That’s not our job; it’s our passion.

As a 100% subsidiary, we are an integral member of Mercedes-Benz and of the largest cross-departmental swarm, known as the “Digital House”. To build the best digital products, we benefit from vast expertise: the experience of a global automotive company hand-in-hand with the know-how of digital professionals.

WE CREATE DIGITAL EXPERIENCES - OUR PRODUCTS

Digital touch-points play an increasingly important role for our customers. The number of visits to the traditional car dealership decreases before a customer decides to buy a new car. Channels like the brand’s website and its applications like product-specific information, a vehicle overview and the car configurator are becoming an even more essential part of the customer journey. Our purpose is to close the gap between online and offline channels and to offer our customers a premium digital experience to smoothly hand them over to traditional retail.

MERCEDES-BENZ WEBSITE

DIGITAL COMMERCE PLATFORM

WE ARE A FIERCE TRIBE AND HAVE A RESPONSIVE ORGANIZATION

OWNERSHIP
Each of us is a responsible owner of multiple roles. We walk the talk and make things happen. We are masters of self-organization and let our entrepreneurial spirit run free. Failure is allowed and respected. We back each other up, share our experiences and find solutions together because the tribe is greater than the sum of its individual parts. We win and learn as one team.

PURPOSE
Our favourite question is ‘why’. This is why every single circle and role in our organization follows a purpose, a clear north star, a shared goal to aim for. We keep our eyes on the prize and our desired outcome in the back of our mind to make sure we all follow a common mission and share the same beliefs for the bigger picture.

CHALLENGING
“Mission accomplished” is not enough. We reflect and challenge everything – the status quo, Mercedes-Benz and ourselves. We love taking on a good challenge and pushing boundaries where we see potential for evolution. Our focus always stays on what creates the highest sustainable impact and how to get there.

COLLABORATIVE
As a flat-hierarchical company we work as we live: collaborative, reflective, ambitious and united. We know there are more ways than one to reach targets. Each individual connection makes us stronger and better. By being transparent and living a respectful feedback-culture, everyone can benefit from our skills, experience and creative passion.
