Job description

Transport is at the core of modern society. Imagine using your expertise to shape sustainable transport and infrastructure solutions for the future. If you seek to make a difference on a global scale, working with next‑gen technologies and the sharpest collaborative teams, then we could be a perfect match.

Do you enjoy helping people understand how trucks work and seeing others grow through learning? Do you want to develop our global dealer network and enable trainers and technicians to succeed in an increasingly electrified and software‑driven truck environment? Then you can be the one we are looking for!

Technical Training is part of the Competence Development (CD) department at Volvo Trucks. CD is responsible for building world class competence across our dealer network by delivering innovative, efficient and people‑centric training that strengthens skills, enhances knowledge and supports exceptional customer experiences.

Within Competence Development, Technical Training is one of several key training domains. In addition to technical training for workshop technicians, CD also delivers commercial, sales, onboarding and role‑based training to support customer facing employees across the dealer network. Together, these areas ensure a holistic and consistent competence development approach.

Our mission in CD is to empower both workshop technicians and customer facing roles through modern learning solutions. This includes instructor‑led training, digital learning tools, new ways of learning, coaching approaches and initiatives that support attracting, developing and retaining diverse talent in the dealer network.

Technical Training focuses on developing and delivering training solutions for workshop technicians, with strong collaboration across CD and with our global training network. We work closely with a global network of trainers through a train‑the‑trainer concept, enabling consistent, high quality training delivery while allowing local adaptation. This network is also actively involved in our training development projects.

Many technicians in the dealer network work with both Volvo Trucks and Renault Trucks, which is why we cooperate closely with the Technical Training team at Renault Trucks in Lyon.

What will you do?

• Develop instructor‑led training courses and online learning solutions for a global audience
• Translate complex technical content into clear, structured and engaging learning material
• Act as a trainer in a train‑the‑trainer setup, handing over training solutions to market companies and supporting local trainers
• Deliver training mainly at the Training Centre in Gothenburg, with opportunities to teach at other Volvo locations around the world
• Work closely with colleagues in Technical Training, technical specialists across the organization, and the global trainer network

You will be an important contributor to the continuous improvement of how we develop and deliver technical training, combining structure, creativity and collaboration.

• A university degree in a relevant field or equivalent experience
• Proven experience working with trucks, truck systems and technical training development
• Solid expertise in electrical systems, ideally gained through hands‑on work with Volvo´s Truck electrical architecture
• Interest in communication, learning and knowledge sharing
• Experience in structuring and simplifying technical information from multiple sources
• Strong presentation skills in English
• Strong technical writing skills in English
• Confidence in using Office 365 applications
• A collaborative, open and solution oriented mindset

What is a plus if you have:

• Experience from workshop or service operations
• Previous exposure to training, coaching or mentoring
• A truck driver license
