Vattenfall is one of Europe's largest producers and retailers of electricity and heat. Our main markets are Sweden, Germany, the Netherlands, Denmark, and the UK. The Vattenfall Group has approximately 20,000 employees. We have been electrifying industries, powering homes and transforming life through innovation for more than 100 years. We now want to make fossil free living possible within one generation and we are driving the transition to a sustainable energy system.

Job Description

Join us in building Vattenfall's future supply chains!
Vattenfall has high growth plan for decentralized energy solutions, i.e. E-mobility , solar, energy storage, heat pumps, microgrids & smart homes. The new, climate-friendly digital solutions are projected an explosive growth in our markets and Vattenfall is determined to build a leading position in these business areas.
A business unit within Customer & Solutions, BU E-mobility, is now building our own Vattenfall charging network for electric vehicles - InCharge, now launched in Sweden, Netherlands and Germany. The main focus has been destination charging, but the business area for public/fast charging is emerging.
Moreover, several other units within C&S, Heat & Distribution are selling charge boxes as a core part of their bundled decentralised offering to Vattenfall's core and emerging markets.
A key success factor to gain the position as market leader in the field of EV charging is cost-efficient, smart and coordinated sourcing of hardware, as well as an efficient, sustainable supply chain (including installation and Operation and Maintenance (O&M) services). We are now looking for the right person to further enhance our procurement activities in the area of E-mobility with the focus on the Sweden - a Strategic Buyer for Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE).

Due to the complex organization of Vattenfall, a large component of stakeholder relations is required. The strategic buyer will be part of the New Energy Solutions (NES) procurement team that is also responsible for Solar, Energy Storage, Hydrogen and Supply chain so tasks within these categories may also become relevant depending on the workload within the team. Furthermore, identifying and executing on synergies between these categories are key success factors for the NES team. A successful candidate needs to have (sufficient) technical understanding of the hardware as such, but first and foremost a business-oriented mindset, strong procurement and negotiation skills & a true interest in building the new, electrified transport sector.

Qualifications:

Procurement and sourcing experience is mandatory and working with Category Management is a merit
Business-oriented mindset with strong experience in sourcing and supply chain activities, documented track record of creating value and save cost across the supply chain
Good understanding of people and culture in working across multiple business functions and markets

Education:
Degree level qualification, ideally in either an engineering discipline or business administration
Post-graduate professional qualification in Business or Supply Chain desirable
