Workshop Manager Industrial Engineering

Scania is now undergoing a transformation from being a supplier of trucks, buses, and engines to a supplier of complete and sustainable transport solutions. Transmission manufacturing is a key player in this transformation and is right now in an expansive and exciting phase where we lay the foundations for Scania's future transmission & eMobility production. In the coming years we will launch new generations of conventional and electrified gearboxes and axle platforms, and we are continuously challenging our current way of working to ensure world-class production.
Within our engineering organisation we work close to Scania R&D in the development to ensure excellent design for manufacturing.

Due to an upcoming parental leave, we are seeking an interim Senior Engineering Manager to play a key role in our ongoing transformation. This is a unique opportunity to develop your leadership skills in a one-year assignment within Industrial Engineering at Transmission Manufacturing.
In this role, you will lead a highly motivated team that plays an important role in Scania’s shift towards sustainable product and production. As the acting Senior Engineering Manager, you will be a part of the Engineering Management team and, together with your group managers, be responsible for managing both large and small-scale projects. Additionally, you will work proactively to enhance efficiency within our existing manufacturing processes and ensure several new e-mobility products are successfully introduced.
Our project portfolio ranges from large e-mobility and transmission initiatives—where entirely new manufacturing strategies need to be developed—to smaller projects such as replacing outdated machinery and implementing new components into our existing production structure.
Our current project portfolio contains everything from large eMobilty and transmission projects where we need to set whole new manufacturing strategies, to smaller projects like replacing worn-out machinery or implementing new components in our current structure.
