Transport is at the core of modern society. Imagine using your expertise to shape sustainable transport and infrastructure solutions for the future? If you seek to make a difference on a global scale, working with next-gen technologies and the sharpest collaborative teams, then we could be a perfect match. 

What you will do

‘I    love that no day is the other day alike.’

‘I    love to work in truly global context with internal and external stakeholders from all over the globe.’

‘I    love to work in a fast-paced context where I learn a lot and have great colleagues.’

‘To work here is a great school for people that really want to become Purchasing professionals. I have learnt and experienced so much.’  

When asking some of our ‘co-responsibles’ about what they love about their job those are examples of the answers we get. We would like to call the people in the teams ‘co-responsibles’ rather than ‘co-workers’ as that is how we would like everyone to feel. We are all in this game together and every person counts to make a difference. Would you like to join our team to work together with us on the journey to build the future of our electronics department?

We are proud to be on a super exciting journey where we will grow our teams to be ready for committing to our long-term targets to be 100% fossil free, 100% safe and 100% more productive. To get there, sustainability needs to be at the heart of everything we do, and we thus need to grow our electronics purchasing department.

You will also contribute to the purchasing strategy and secure its implementation in your scope.

 

 

Who are you?

We believe that one of your greatest assets is to build high quality relationships with your internal and external stakeholders. With well-functioning supplier interactions, we know that we easier support our business and develop sustainable long-term partnerships in our supply chain. If you love to work in a multicultural context with a high pace and to cooperate with various functions, you will also love and excel at this job.

·  Develop and drive the strategic agenda for your area  
·  Collaborate cross-functionally to optimize your buyer portfolio in various aspects  

Negotiate, implement changes, and manage crisis in your portfolio

Ticket to ride
