Since the decisions will have a direct impact on Scania’s profitability, they are taken at the highest level within Scania.
 
Other tasks involve Scania’s strategic long term volume plan, reports to Scania’s management and board, as well as daily operational issues connected to order allocations and informational pulse meetings. You will represent the department in various forums and projects.
