Project Specialist - Machine Investments

At Sandvik Coromant, we pride ourselves on pushing boundaries and testing limits by rethinking, redefining and redesigning to figure out what’s possible to achieve. We offer a global, innovative and inclusive setting, with passionate minds and industry leading solutions in metal cutting, and we’re always on the lookout for talented people who’d like to extend their potential together with us!
For Sales Area North Europe and our Strategic Relations team, we currently need a driven, enthusiastic and resourceful Project Specialist for investments – someone who’s ready to take on a broad role with a 360 scope. Are you up for exciting collaborations with internal and external partners, supporting machine builders and agents, and not to forget working with our end users? Then this is a great chance for you to get onboard our global growth journey!
Your job
In this position, you help us identifying customer investments and supporting them in their selection and implementation – ensuring a great return for their spending, and also that Sandvik Coromant is seen as a true partner for doing business. You work closely with our Frontline Sales teams to identify new investment leads, and you prioritize, negotiate, manage and close on machine investment opportunities. By constantly communicating and coordinating with your stakeholders in the wider organization, you drive success in our projects, and you ensure smooth, cost-efficient and timely conclusions. Yes, networking and collaboration are truly your most important keys in this role!
Other central responsibilities included are preparing and presenting complex solution offers by means of story board, tooling sheets and quotations, as well as supporting implementation of provided solutions at our end user sites. You also participate in trade events – for example at machine manufacturers, agents and distributors – and use your people skills to build strong relations with key contacts in this area. By keeping a broad business mindset, you explore new opportunities for our supporting products and services, and you find areas where we can advance.
To be in a perfect spot for customer interactions and building strong networks in Sales Area North Europe, you’re based at our office in Kista (Sweden), but we also give you the flexibility to work from your home. Travel within the region is included in your job, meaning you need a valid driver’s license.
About you
We’re looking for someone with experience from the cutting tool industry and its applications, as well as machine interface solutions. You hold a background in customer-centric roles within sales or services and understand the machine market in the Nordic countries. You’re also comfortable working in a manufacturing environment with lots of tech talk and people interactions. Your knowledge is grounded by a relevant university degree in a technical field, and you bring a great understanding of business and performance drivers.
CAD/CAM experience is desirable, and you’re skilled in the Office 365 applications including Teams, Dynamics and Power BI. Since we’re a truly global organization, you need to be fluent in English and one of the Nordic languages, while other language skills could come in handy.
You’re committed, forward-thinking and outgoing. A person who takes ownership of your tasks, with the skills to prioritize and multitask to deliver results on time. With a modern business mindset and a digital approach, you challenge us to look at new perspectives – aiming to bring our business towards the future. You encourage people around you to always share their views and ideas, as you believe that no subject is too big or small to discuss. Interacting with many various stakeholders, you also understand that success comes from great teamwork and transparent, straightforward communication.
