Equipment as a Service (EaaS) is a Volvo Group offer that bundles all of the services and solutions provided by the Group and its partners, providing customers a contracted level of electric vehicle capacity, rather than requiring an outright purchase or lease or an electric vehicle.


In partnership with the Volvo Group brands, VFS is facilitating the development of a common platform that will serve as the foundation for the Volvo Group’s EaaS activities in the future. To accomplish this, VFS is applying a commercial CAST approach to further define and develop a single platform for EaaS across the Volvo Group. Using CAST, or Common Architecture, Shared Technology, thinking allows VFS to create a scalable, cost-effective solution, while giving Group brands the ability to fully customize offers for their customers.


The Equipment as a Service Analyst is part of VFS Global Headquarters and reports to the Eaas Strategic Projects Director. The location for this role will be in Gothenburg, Sweden.
