Job description

Experienced Project Manager - Scania Project Office

Scania is undergoing a transformation from being a leading supplier of trucks, buses, and engines to providing complete and sustainable transport solutions. Together with TRATON and our sister brands MAN, Volkswagen Truck & Bus, and International, we are working to shape the future of mobility with innovative and environmentally conscious solutions.

Our values - customer first, respect, team spirit, responsibility, and elimination of waste - are at the heart of everything we do. Together, we are at the forefront of creating a sustainable future.

Who You Are

You are an experienced and trusted Project Manager with a strong track record of leading complex, high-impact projects. You bring both strategic perspective and operational precision, and you know how to drive results through others.

We believe you have:

• Master's degree, preferably in Engineering, Business, or an equivalent field.
• Significant project management experience, ideally gained within Scania or the wider TRATON Group. Experience from executive decision‑making arenas is highly valued.
• Strong business understanding and the ability to balance strategic objectives with operational realities.
• Proven leadership experience, including leading other leaders and managing cross‑functional teams.
• Full professional proficiency in English; Swedish is an advantage.

Your leadership combines structure and empathy, and you bring stability, focus and collaboration even in high‑stakes situations. You are as comfortable discussing strategic directions with executives as you are guiding your team through the day‑to‑day complexities of execution.

You will guide complex, cross‑functional programs from decision to delivery, ensuring seamless industrial introductions that meet Scania's EBIT goals and strengthen our premium offering. Together with executive leaders and other project managers, you will help move Scania's strategy from vision to value, always with the customer in focus.
