Working at Volvo Energy is different
Welcome to a team unified by an important mission, great ideas, fun, diversity and inclusiveness. Our colleagues are - and will always be - the most important part of the story. Each colleague truly matters and plays an important role in our journey. Consequently, while demands are high, there are also plenty of opportunities to learn and grow - as a professional and as a person.

We will be a relatively small team and therefore look for colleagues that thoroughly enjoy this intrapreneurial challenge and ready to hit the ground running. We value individuals who lead with passion, perform with purpose, and transform with vision. Moreover, it will be essential you have a strong ability to form trustful relationships to effectively work with partners - inside and outside of the Volvo Group – in a cross-functional manner. You will make a difference

Making it a success for yourself and Volvo Energy
You welcome this chance to work in a smart and modern way, where we together are the catalysts to make our desired future happen. As our business area is new, you need to share our curiosity for new technologies, tools and ways-of-working and constantly want to take it to the next level. At the same time, you realize that breaking new ground also means mistakes will happen and nothing will be perfect. These are not frustrations but instead learning opportunities for us. You see the journey itself as the destination and whilst you are highly successful in your current position, you feel a strong desire to move further – you want to move from success to significance.
