Together with our digital talents, we will deliver the platforms on which future services and solutions will be built. We will outline the North Star IT Architecture that embraces our legacy and enables value creation for the Group.

We collaborate with other parts of the organization, both in Digital & IT, with the different business units and Group Functions. We foster an environment where ideas, thoughts and opinions can be shared. We are team players with clear common ambitions, and we win together.

In this role, you will add value by aligning capacity competence and methods to the expected transformation towards the targeted footprint for Digital & IT in the Volvo Group.
