Your crew

Beyond Gravity is in a strong growth and transformation phase. At our Linköping site, one of Beyond Gravity's key manufacturing operations, we are moving from a project-oriented way of working to a scalable and volume-oriented delivery model, with high demands for precision, pace and quality.

The Supply Chain function consists of logistics, planning and procurement, where the logistics function is currently in a development and transformation phase with a need for clearer structure, processes and control.

In this role, you report to the Senior Manager Supply Chain and have personnel responsibility for approximately 18 employees working across warehouse and logistics operations.

You are a person who is motivated by developing both people and processes and who creates engagement through clarity, collaboration and a coaching leadership style. The role requires a high level of presence in the operation, good prioritization skills and a good ability to handle a high pace.

Must-haves:

• Post‑secondary education in logistics or a similar field – or equivalent experience
