The industrial segment at Volvo Penta offers world class drivelines such as diesel engines, electric drivelines and other power solutions to a broad variety of applications, such as material handling, forestry, mining and gensets. The segment has grown steadily in the recent years, mainly with new customers and applications of our successful industrial driveline portfolio.
At Market Unit Nordic we support some of Volvo Penta’s key industrial customers and are also at the very forefront when it comes to future technologies.

To succeed you will need to work in very close collaboration with your peers at the customer, e.g. OEM engineering & design functions, to build an understanding of their needs and requirements. You will also work closely with key internal stakeholders to promote the OEM requirements as well as getting their support to succeed.


This position is a part of a team with skilled and inspired colleagues that will contribute to your success but also count on you to support them in their daily work. Together with your Sales Manager colleague you will build a customer team with the overall responsibility, technically and commercially, for the total driveline business for your respective customers.

At Volvo Penta we are actively working to establish groups consisting of differences in experience, age, gender and nationality to get a maximum advantage of the strength through diversity.
