Candela's ultimate purpose is to speed up the transition to fossil fuel-free lakes and oceans. We strive to re-think efficiency in marine transportation to radically push the performance boundaries of electric boats and ships.

By combining sensors, computers and advanced submerged hydrofoils, our electric craft fly above the water, reaching speeds and range previously attained only by fossil fuel powerboats.

After launching Candela C-7, Europe's currently best-selling electric boat, we just launched Candela C-8, the first electric boat intended for high volume production. We are also venturing into public transport with the revolutionary foiling P-30 ferry, built for the city of Stockholm.

• Build and maintain mutually beneficial relationships with selected suppliers
• Work proactively with analysis of BOM data and market research to find ways to reduce COGS
• Be a proactive part in establishing a professional sourcing function at Candela

• Process oriented and scientifical
• Have excellent communication skills and the ability explain complex things in an easy way
• Have a drive to build strong relationships, both internally and with Candela's supplier base
• Have excellent skills in spoken and written English (Swedish is also good, but not a requirement)
• Have a strong get-things-done attitude: drive and ambition trumps long experience in this role
