Sourcing Manager – Building & Construction

Scania is now undergoing a transformation from being a supplier of trucks, buses and engines to a supplier of complete and sustainable transport solutions.

One of our colleagues is moving on to new challenges and therefore we are currently looking for a committed teammate to join our diverse group.

Job Description

The main objective will be to source both new buildings and conversion of existing buildings mainly within Sweden but also in Europe according to the company’s needs at the best achievable Cost, Quality, Delivery and Sustainability. 

Main task is to lead supplier negotiations, present results in decision boards and conclude commercial agreements to create the best value for Scania. This is often executed in close cooperation with internal as well with Traton and Volkswagen group. You will be part of aligning the company’s need across multiple functions in order to cooperate and drive the tender processes. An active participation in different internal stakeholder organizations is necessary to reach the best results and to make a difference.

Your profile

We believe that you are passionate about business and have previous experience from purchasing or from a related business area as well as a university degree. Previous experience working with AB04/ABT06, CAPEX or related services is a merit.

Since the majority of both internal stakeholders and suppliers are native Swedish we prefer you to be fluent in both Swedish and English.
