• Design customised truck solutions that meet specific customer and operational requirements.
• Perform feasibility studies, technical investigations and cost quotations.
• Drive customer adaptation solutions in collaboration with engineering, product development, production sites and bodybuilders.
• Ensure that proposed solutions are compliant, feasible, profitable and aligned with Volvo Trucks standards.
• Contribute to concept development that reduces lead times, increases flexibility and improves customer value.
• Capture market trends and customer insights and translate them into recommendations for future product development.
• Continuously improve processes, tools and ways of working to strengthen customer satisfaction and business performance.

Visible Business Impact – The solutions you create will directly contribute to customer success, operational excellence and Volvo Trucks' competitiveness in the market.
