You'll also be responsible for developing the Supply Partner Code of Conduct, policy, and platform for our collaboration with supply partners in building sustainable supply networks.

Key responsibilities will include:

  • Developing and leading the implementation and scaling of the global Human Rights Due Diligence program for the Volvo Group supply network.
  • Researching, interpreting, and applying Human Rights due diligence frameworks and guidelines related to supply chain activities, ensuring compliance with legal frameworks in close cooperation with Volvo Group Trucks Purchasing Legal & Compliance.
  • Providing direction on Human Rights compliance and due diligence based on current and future regulatory landscapes globally, coaching, and training to continuously build knowledge and capabilities within the organization.

  • Collaborating with the Responsible Purchasing team to actively contribute to and participate in the buildup, implementation, and roll-out of the Responsible Purchasing Roadmap.
  • Participating in external industry groups and compliance networks representing Volvo Group Purchasing.

We're looking for a passionate and experienced professional with a track record of working on ESG strategies in a multinational corporate environment. You'll have the ability to identify opportunities and risks from a sustainability perspective, with a focus on Human Rights and People. Your leadership skills, creativity, and ability to operate in a world of uncertainties will be essential in driving change and managing cross-functional projects involving a wide range of stakeholders.

Required experience and education include:

  • A Master of Science or equivalent in a relevant field with a minimum of five years of work experience as a sustainability professional.
  • A deep understanding within the compliance and due diligence field with a focus on human rights, preferably in a supply network context.

A relevant degree in law or business administration is considered an advantage for this position. To succeed in this role, we believe you have experience driving progress in human rights, international relations, law, or related areas.

We value your data privacy and therefore do not accept applications via mail. Our focus on Inclusion, Diversity, and Equity allows each of us the opportunity to bring our full authentic self to work and thrive by providing a safe and supportive environment, free of harassment and discrimination. We're committed to removing the barriers to entry, which is why we ask that even if you feel you may not meet every qualification on the job description, please apply and let us decide.

Joining Volvo Group means working in a global context with 1,400 colleagues from diverse backgrounds and different nationalities across 25 countries while contributing to the core business and results of Volvo Group. Group Trucks Purchasing has 125 BSEK in purchasing annual spend and 2,550 supply chain partners in serial production.
