Our values – customer first, respect, team spirit, responsibility, and elimination of waste – are at the heart of everything we do. Together, we are at the forefront of creating a sustainable future.

Are you attracted by working in a commercial and international environment, have a strategic and forward looking mindset together with a strong understanding and interest in procurement? We are now looking for a business developer who will take ownership and over time optimize TRATON and Scania Sourcing & part lifecycle processes.
 

Role Summary
The main responsibility of the business developer is primarily to maintain and challenge our current ways of working to drive short and long term process adoption, efficiency and effectiveness.  The business developer will team up with brand representatives and stakeholders to drive continuous improvements of current processes and tools. This role ensures operational stability, reduces waste, and maintains a culture of continuous improvement.

 
Key Responsibilities

•    Process Optimization: Lead upcoming global process teams to identify inefficiencies in current workflows and implement improvements.
•    Issue Resolution: Address process deviations, bottlenecks, or quality issues quickly.
•    Compliance and Audit Readiness: Ensure all processes align with regulatory and organizational policies and rules.

Who You are
We are looking for someone with extensive experience and expertise in sourcing management in a manufacturing context. It’s an advantage if you also have experience applying BPM methodologies as a business process owner or analyst. To be successful in this role, you need to be excellent at stakeholder collaboration and communication, have a keen interest in research and analytics and have the ability to drive change in a successful way. You enjoy taking initiative and develop the role you are in. As a person, you are positive and contribute to good team spirit in the groups you work in, especially in times when the pace of work is high.
 

As the role involves work at an international level as well as some traveling, an advanced level of English, both in writing and verbally, is mandatory, and good knowledge of Swedish is an advantage.

We work together to create a climate where skills, as well as opinions, are openly shared and respected, while striving to have fun at work.
 
The team is based at Scania's procurement office in Södertälje and we are employing a hybrid work set-up, meaning that you have the opportunity to work from home or in our office in central Stockholm some days of the week.
