SKF has been around for more than a century and today we are one of the world’s largest global suppliers of bearings and supporting solutions for rotating equipment. Our products can be found everywhere in society, making us an essential part of everyday life for people and companies worldwide.

In September of 2024, SKF announced the separation of its Automotive business, with the objective of building two world‑leading businesses.

In summary, you will manage the Service and oversee the progression of this area. This is a practical role focused on delivering results and ensuring progress for the Service.
