About the role
There is now an opportunity for you to join the ETP New Technologies & Markets function and contribute to the development of our new products. As a Senior Early Phase Project Manager - Purchasing, you are representing GTP in the ongoing Early phase projects and you plan and actively lead the purchasing deliverables in primarily the Hydrogen and Fuel cells related areas. This means that you are the key purchasing interface towards the projects' Chief Project Managers as well as the Early phase Portfolio Managers in Group Trucks Technology (GTT). Another important task in this role is to bring the innovation from suppliers and other external stakeholders into the projects and Proof of Value initiatives and to continue our transition from a reactive to a proactive way of working in Early Phases.
You will work closely with project managers from other functions, Commodity and Project buyers in GTP, prototype purchasing teams in GTT as well as your other colleagues in Emerging Technologies Purchasing. You lead and secure all the purchasing deliverables according to the project requirements and gate criteria's and take an active part in developing the technologies of tomorrow.
Who are you?
You have a Masters or Bachelor university degree within relevant field (e.g. in Purchasing Management), or comparable work experience.
You have experience from Purchasing and/or Product Development within the automotive industry.
Background as a Project Manager is considered to be a strong merit.

We are looking for a person with passion to develop sustainable transport solutions with pioneering products and services for the transport and infrastructure industries. If you have a strong drive and like to have fun at work, this will be a job opportunity that will suit you well.
We believe that you have a result-oriented mindset, which will help you to take on challenging work assignments in a successful way. In addition to this, you have the ability to learn quickly when faced with new issues. Furthermore, you are future oriented and loves the challenges our broad scope brings. It is not standard purchasing; we look for a true change agent and developer. Being the spider in the web and being part of a global organization, it is important to have good communication skills and to be fluent in English, both spoken and written.
We believe that you have a customer-oriented mindset and the ability to lead, inspire, challenge and coach different teams. In this context, it is important that you can act as a connector and leader towards the rest of the GTP organization. As we are solving a variety of different issues, often starting with limited information, we believe you are agile, pragmatic, driven and always open to learn new things. We have a strong emphasis on collaboration and sharing, hence we expect you to be a team player that builds relationships over time.
What can we offer you?
We can offer you an exciting and global working environment which will give you valuable experience that will contribute to your future development within the Volvo Group. In this role, you will have the privilege to manage and drive the Purchasing activities in the early technology/concept development to final verification in vehicle. Last but not least, you will get the opportunity to interact with highly committed colleagues from different cultures and to influence the development of our future products and services.

We can't promise you an effortless job, but what we can promise are some really skilled colleagues and some truly exciting challenges. You will work in a global environment that provides opportunities both professionally and personally. We at GTP Emerging Technologies Purchasing want you to prosper and be happy, because when you succeed, we succeed. Together we drive prosperity.
