Further, you will also have a high focus on data collection and usage in areas such as customer delivery service, logistical cost, working capital and here you are committed to ensuring constant improvement in data quality and granularity.

You will also ensure that SKF ́s high standards on sustainability are catered for where you are committed to identify opportunities to reduce CO2 per product, increase recycled content and safeguarding ethical business.

Your initial task will be focused on building your team through strategic planning, defining new roles and required competences and then proceed to recruit top talent to drive the Supply Chain organization in a way that delivers on SKF ́s goals. You will build a working culture that is based on speak up culture and trust.
