UPTIME BUYER & U&A SEGMENT HOST
Do you enjoy working in an agile and challenging environment with high focus on the customer? Do you want to drive changes and bring innovations in a multicultural environment? Do you embrace continuous improvements and enjoy working in teams? Are you pro-active, service minded and target oriented?

Well, then you should apply today. We at Volvo Group Trucks Purchasing are looking for a buyer in the Uptime & Adaptation (U&A) team to drive the portfolio of gear shifting systems, steering arms and "built to specifications" solutions...and we need you!

WHAT IS OUR OFFER TO YOU?
Volvo mission is to drive prosperity in the transport industry and one of the foundation stone is the customer success! Fulfilling customers' demands rapidly and keep our promises by having their product up and running during its complete life cycle is exiting but might be also a true challenge. That requires for sure a change in mindset and to be innovative, capturing creative supply solutions on the market as well as driving it together with our preferred suppliers.

Typically, the business model for high volume production does not fit with the business we operate for service market parts. The challenge is then to structure and operate the business in the way which is efficient for the service market business and in that way, bring value to the end customers!

Are you ready to take the ride and embrace the challenge?

Uptime, Adaptation and Synergies is a global organization within Group Trucks Purchasing (GTP) which creates value in the service market business, creates value through the customization of the trucks to fit customers' needs and aim at building strong purchasing synergies amongst the various Purchasing organizations of Volvo Group.

THIS IS YOUR MISSION
You will be leading the purchasing activities on your scope with all internal and external stakeholders to ensure the customers maximum satisfaction.

That means that you will own and develop the Segment Business Plans for U&A on your perimeter; scout and seek for the best suppliers plus bring creative and innovative solutions on this segment on the whole value chain (challenge design, sourcing & contract, procurement). You will also lead the negotiations and supplier performance reviews, manage your purchasing portfolio for service parts in order to secure the best QDCF-TSR performance and perform purchasing activities related to ordering, logistics and financial flows to the suppliers.

At GTP, we strive to be a multicultural and global organization. We welcome applicants which can even further increase our diversity. Come join us, apply today and let's do business together!
