Right now, we’re looking for a business-minded, curious and resourceful Executive Assistant to our Vice President and Head of Marketing & Communications – someone who truly finds a passion in organizing, coordinating and multitasking in the middle of a global, dynamic and customer-centric environment filled with inspiring and innovative people.

About the job
In this position, you have a vital role in the Sandvik Coromant organization, as you’re part of our team of executive assistants that plan and organize the daily work life of our managers in the Sandvik Coromant Management team. Your main task is supporting our Vice President and Head of Marketing & Communications, but this could also be combined with other assignments and projects.

You provide flexible service, an optimized office setup and act as a gate keeper for your executive. Besides supporting in various administrative tasks and being responsible for your executive’s agenda, you coordinate activities, travels and conferences, and you gather information, prepare material and document outcomes. As an Executive Assistant, you have a widely spread network and you interact with many different parts of the Sandvik organization, but also with external customers and partners worldwide. Additionally, you contribute in finding improvements that leads to smart and modern ways of working, and you inspire us to embrace the benefits and possibilities of acting in a cloud environment.

Who you are
We’re looking for someone with high ambitions, great service skills, a professional attitude as well as the ability and eagerness to learn new things. Your previous career most likely includes roles like this one, and you’re a master of structure and administration. As you’re supporting the Head of Marketing & Communications, we think that you have a broad interest in this area, and you would benefit from a marcom degree of some kind. You’re used to a global environment - including cultural aspects and different time zones - and as we become more and more digital, you need to be tech-savvy and comfortably embrace digital office solutions and new technology. You also communicate fluently in English and Swedish.

With organized and straightforward ways of working - and not to forget a doer’s mentality - you’re always two steps ahead, spot what needs to be done and then you take action! Yes, you truly enjoy a shifting setting, where you ensure accuracy and take pride in delivering on time. You stay calm under pressure and can switch gears at a moment’s notice when the situation calls for it. Although you single-handedly know how to prioritize and creatively solve problems on the go, you’re a true team player with a great gift for networking and communicating. Naturally, we believe that giving flexible service is in the core of your character and you’re thorough, unassuming and resourceful as you facilitate the work life of your executive.
