Your role
As Head of Sourcing, you will lead and oversee our entire purchasing function. You will manage a skilled team of 11 employees, comprising six purchasers, four strategic sourcing managers, and one SQM, with team members based in both Malmslätt and Östersund.
In this key role, you will have the overall responsibility for procurement and contract management within the Business Unit Tactical Support Solutions. You will apply an overall perspective, good commercial judgement and carry out long-term development of strategic business relationships.

* Supporting your team in planning and executing negotiations with major vendors
* Setting and achieving clear objectives for the department
* Guiding the team's development in line with business needs
* Continuously improving the department's Ways of Working

As Head of Sourcing, you will report directly to the Head of the Business Unit and be an integral part of the Business Unit Management Team.
Your profile
We are looking for a highly skilled and experienced professional with a strong background in purchasing and a passion for leading and developing others. While formal education in procurement is not mandatory, extensive hands-on experience is key, particularly with a blend of both operational and strategic expertise.
The ideal candidate will have a natural talent for building trust and fostering strong, collaborative relationships, both internally and externally. A strong business acumen is critical, enabling you to understand the broader context of procurement decisions and their impact on the organization.

Behind our innovations stand the people who make them possible. Brave pioneers and curious minds. Everyday heroes and inventive troubleshooters. Those who share deep knowledge and those who explore sky-high. And everyone in between.
Joining us means making an impact together, contributing in our own unique ways. From crafting complex code and building impressive defence and security solutions to simply sharing a coffee with a colleague, every action counts. We encourage you to take on challenges, to create smart inventions and grow in our friendly and tech-savvy workspace. We have a solid mission to keep people and society safe.
