Join Volvo Cars in Shaping the Future of Sustainability

We are adapting technology to benefit people. This philosophy extends to the sales and customer experience we aim to deliver. Do you want to be part of creating exciting solutions for tomorrow's mobility?

About the Role

Volvo Cars is looking for a Sustainability Manager to lead our work on sustainability due diligence in our battery supply chain. In this role, you will be part of the Procurement & Supply Chain Sustainability team that is responsible for shaping the global Procurement & Supply Chain sustainability strategy and guiding its implementation, by focusing on cross-functional alignment and raising the ambition level in line with decided strategies.


Key Responsibilities
  • Engage with suppliers and Volvo Cars Procurement team to develop and implement our due diligence program in Volvo Car's Battery raw material supply chains, with a strong focus on Lithium, Nickel, Graphite, Cobalt, and Manganese.
  • Lead and monitor the social audit program of the Volvo Cars Battery Supply Chain, from mine sites to tier 1 suppliers.
  • Lead and monitor the Blockchain supply chain traceability program in close cooperation with our external Blockchain partner.
  • Engage with NGOs, investors, industry groups, and other external stakeholders, including traveling.
  • Support in drafting Volvo Cars Annual and Sustainability Report, policy and position paper updates as well as responses to customer/investor/media inquiries.
  • Steer, monitor, and report on related performance metrics, providing insights and strategic recommendations to management.
  • Continuously identify, assess, and update the Sustainability and human rights risks landscape of the Battery Supply Chain, including regulatory developments.
  • Collaborate and engage internally and cross-functionally within Volvo Cars through trainings and overall support.
  • Stay in touch and support in compliance with regulatory developments and industry trends in the Battery industry.

While the role covers the whole range of Sustainability, the main focus of the Battery Supply Chain Sustainability Manager will be on Human Rights and Responsible Business.


Requirements and Qualifications

We believe you have a university degree in a relevant area and more than five years of relevant work experience.

Knowledge about and working with batteries, battery chemistry, or the battery industry is highly valuable while basic understanding of Human Rights Due Diligence and related responsible sourcing standards, frameworks, and regulations is important. We are therefore looking for someone with a combined skill set who is comfortable in dialogues both with battery engineers as well as with Sustainability experts and suppliers. Experience with supply chain traceability such as Blockchain is considered an extra merit.

As a person, the most important thing is your passion and your belief in making this world a better place. You enjoy working as a team but also are self-motivated and can work and deliver without constant supervision. We need to lead both our own organization as well as our supply chain partners into sometimes unknown territory; building trustful relationships will therefore be key to success. You are a structured person who can shift gear and re-prioritize with short notice and have excellent verbal and written communication skills and aptitude for creating engagement for effective due diligence in the organization.
