This position offers the opportunity to shape core trade governance, drive continuous improvement, and influence high‑impact decisions across a global environment.

Accountabilities

• Serve as the primary subject‑matter expert for import and export regulations, advising European legal entities on HS classification, country‑of‑origin determination, customs valuation, and the use of free trade agreements.
• Act as a strategic advisor on the impact of trade restrictions, tariffs, and emerging regulatory frameworks.
• Supervise and act as Business Product Owner for SAP systems, particularly the GTS module, ensuring effective adoption and functionality.
• Monitor regulatory changes, compliance trends, and geopolitical developments to keep the organization informed and aligned with evolving requirements.
• Design, implement, and oversee internal compliance programs, SOPs, and periodic audits to ensure robust trade governance.
• Develop and conduct internal training to promote compliance awareness and accountability.
• Provide guidance on export controls and sanctions, including compliance with regulations from jurisdictions such as the UK and US.
• Operate in a fully remote environment, preferably based near company sites in Sweden, Germany, or France.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in international business, supply chain, law, or a related field; an advanced degree is preferred.
• At least 8 years of experience in global trade compliance with strong expertise in customs regulations, ideally within the medical device, biotech, or pharmaceutical industries.
• Deep knowledge of import/export regulations, including HS classification, country‑of‑origin rules, and customs valuation.
• Hands‑on experience with SAP GTS or similar global trade management systems.
• Understanding of global customs regimes such as the EU Union Customs Code, US CBP, and China GAC.
• Experience in export control, including dual‑use goods and export‑controlled technologies.
• Strong analytical thinking, problem‑solving abilities, and a strategic mindset.
• Excellent stakeholder management, communication, and project leadership skills in a global environment.
• Self‑driven, motivated, and capable of managing multiple complex projects simultaneously.

Benefits

• Competitive compensation package aligned with experience and local market standards.
• Safe, collaborative, and inclusive work environment with a strong emphasis on open communication and teamwork.
