Business Developer - Charging strategy and business development

Are you an explorer and a strategic thinker that is driven by making ideas into reality?

Do you have the drive to understand and explore the intersection between the physical and the digital space within the future ecosystem of Battery electric vehicles (BEV)? Then you might be the Business Developer we are looking for.

Scania is undergoing a transformation from being a supplier of trucks, buses and power solutions to a supplier of complete and sustainable electrified transport solutions.

An important part of this journey is to better understand the ecosystem around BEV and develop solutions that lower the threshold for our customers to join the BEV journey with us. We see that most of our customer’s uncertainty to commit to BEV derives from uncertainty in the ecosystem around the actual vehicle.

“Our task is to bridge this uncertainty gap and develop solutions that enable and elevates the BEV market for Scania. This we do by navigating the space and opportunities within the BEV ecosystem including electricity market, charging and the digital world to understand and develop Scania complimentary solution offer to BEV.”

                      Pontus Finnström – Head of Charging Strategy & Business Development

We are now looking for a business developer to help us drive business development topics from beginning to implementation in the new evolving landscape.

What you will do
In this role you will be working within the forefront of electrification and actively contribute to a more sustainable society, while in parallel gain insight into a generational shift in transportation that is just getting started.

Your profile
To be successful in this role you must be a real team player with an analytical mindset. You also have an entrepreneurial/intrapreneurial mindset and the ability to adapt to different markets and customer challenges.

We also believe that you have a strong personal drive and commitment with a solution-oriented mindset, no task is too small or too large. You have a drive for a sustainable business solution within the digital as well as the physical space.

Requirements
You probably hold a university degree in engineering or economics or similar and you have some years of relevant work experience within strategy or business development within a startup, consultancy or corporate setting. You most likely have experience with topics related to energy, service IT or similar.

You write and speak English with high proficiency and other languages are meriting. It is also meriting if you have a track record of going from business ideas to execution in any setting.

You probably have a strong skillset in a fact-based approach using PowerPoint and excel.

What’s in it for you
We offer you a fun, interesting, challenging, and developing journey together with engaged colleagues. The work environment is international and your colleagues and stakeholders are representing different parts of the organization, nationalities and companies. You will join a group of real team players with various backgrounds e.g Energy Utility, IT, telecom, charging, management consulting, etc., and of course also Scania. Our common denominator is to drive sustainable transport forward by enabling BEV sales through developing additional needed solutions.
