Experience using structured problem solving methods such as 8D, DMAIC, PDCA, or similar approaches
Ability to communicate clearly and effectively in English, both written and spoken
Comfort in leading and contributing to meetings with suppliers, customers, and internal stakeholders at different levels, while representing SKF in a professional and trustworthy manner
We recognize that experience and strengths can take different forms, and that a deep background in one area can balance more limited experience in another. We therefore encourage candidates with relevant experience and a willingness to develop further in the role to apply.
