Senior Supply Chain Risk Manager

Scania is now undergoing a transformation from being a supplier of trucks, buses and engines to a supplier of complete and sustainable transport solutions.We are facing a new supply chain landscape! The biggest paradigm shift in the area of supply chain management since the introduction of Lean is here. We have learned a lot from the Corona crisis and all the small and big disruptions to global supply following that. At SNM we are awarded the toughest tasks, and now you have the opportunity to be part of the team making sure Scania’s global production system is able to roll despite the toughest of challenges!

The CCRM team, Cost- Capacity- and Risk Management, is looking for a new committed team member interested in further developing our Supply Chain Risk Process at Purchasing to make sure we are always one step ahead and able to proactively mitigate upcoming risks and working according to long term scenarios. The work we do has a great impact on the bottom line of Scania. Do you like working in a highly dynamic, cross-functional, and international environment with a high tempo and great development possibilities? Come join us!

The CCRM team makes sure all risks, short to long-term, that might have an impact on Scania’s ability to deliver on customer promises are handled in a swift and professional manner. We are currently in an intensive period with many challenges, many of them dealt with globally and often together within the TRATON and Volkswagen groups.

Responsibilities

As the senior supply chain risk manager in our team, you will be responsible for making sure our risk management strategic plan and projects progress according to plans. You will also be leading two colleagues in their operational work. This means running, as well as optimizing, our methods and processes and leading improvement assignments. You will also have an operational responsibility to follow up, report and deliver according to targets.

Focus is on coordinating project plans and resources, and setting targets on strategic assignments. You will in many issues be the link between Purchasing and Corporate Risk Management at Scania. You will be given the opportunity to take part in conferences, events, and seminars with a focus on risk internally as well as outside of Scania. New requests need to be handled with available resources and ongoing assignments in mind. The work is carried out in close collaboration with resources within the department and cross-functional partners from all parts of Scania, TRATON, and Volkswagen Groups.

The team and I as manager

Our team consists of several experienced professionals and there is a strong team spirit and a clear “can do” mindset, especially in tricky situations. We believe in clarity and openness, strong collaboration amongst team members, and the power of collective learning. I as a manager am engaging with a coaching leadership style - I strive for all the team members to be independent in their work, as well as plan and take many decisions themselves and in collaboration with stakeholders.

You

We believe you are an engineer or business graduate with experience in supply chain risk management and project management, preferably with working experience from cross-functional supply chain activities within Scania and/or TRATON. You express an interest in issues related to proactive scenario building, purchasing, and logistics. You should have a focus on results and a strong ability to take initiative. Further, you like to handle multiple parallel activities and have the ability to look ahead and think proactively. Being able to handle all details whilst maintaining a holistic view is absolutely vital.

You like maintaining relationships and enjoy having many contacts within different parts of the organization, both at Scania and with our owners.

As the role involves a large international network, you will need to be proficient in both written and spoken English. Swedish is an advantage as well as other language skills. Proficiency in German and Portuguese is a merit. We value diversity.

Grit is a personal trait that is highly valued - despite obstacles ahead we see things through. We always do our best!
