Sustainable Transport Business 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.

Staying relevant in the future relies on integrating the ambitions underpinning the goals for sustainable development into everything we do. Join the Sustainable Transport Team at Sales and Marketing to take an active part in Driving the Shift! You will be a part of a team working dynamically both in terms of stakeholders and in terms of business areas.

 

The group and your tasks

We are a small team dedicated to supporting the development of Scania’s role as leader in the shift to sustainable transport across business areas. Our focus is on transport and we recognise that this means working on everything from decarbonisation, to the peoples perspective and circular business.

 

This is a group for you who like being part of an exciting business and sustainability driven environment and prefer variation. We are now looking for Sustainable Transport Business Managers to:


• lead Scania’s roadmap towards achieving our Science Based Target and understanding sustainability impacts from different activities (such as biofuels, electrification and e.g. driver services)
• own and manage partnerships with fuel providers and industry associations to enable and speed up the transition to renewable energies
• support business and policy through expertise on different fuels and engine technologies, as well as a good grasp on legislative and policy frameworks
• lead initiatives using digitalisation to find new opportunities for sustainability and sustainable transport internally and externally
• lead work with intelligence and information gathering to map market possibilities
• lead business development through innovative partnerships and changes in the sales process and the supporting systems

We all also support the Business Units on a day to day basis with any question or query they might have regarding sustainable transport.

We are at the forefront of business transformation and the ability to maintain a mindset of “outside-in”, whilst also coaching, convincing and training is a key success factor: Sustainability and Profitability do go hand in hand, but it is not always easy to see. You stay up to date on developments withing the scope of sustainability and enjoy sharing relevant developments within and outside the team.

You speak English fluently and any additional language is meriting. You have a university degree and experience of working with sustainability. Experience from working in a commercial and/or services network for heavy vehicles is a merit as is other knowledge related to our industry, like product knowledge, understanding of transport and sustainability legislation and experience of working with process change and IT.

We celebrate difference and care deeply about diversity and inclusion – if you do not match all the requirements, please demonstrate how your passion, attitude and interest in the success of Scania’s customers might compensate for this.

In this role you will learn a lot of new things. With the speed at which we are seeing change in the ecosystem, there will be plenty of opportunities to learn more about Scania’s current and future business models and ways of working. The department will give you the possibility to network extensively across business areas and across geographies.
