Are you looking to open the doors to a dynamic career combining strategic thinking, hands‑on experience, and leadership development? At ASSA ABLOY, our operations professionals continually push the boundaries of what is possible – how can we drive efficiency? optimize processes? make a tangible impact? Put simply: they challenge the status quo to improve our business on a daily basis.

The two‑year (24‑month) ASSA ABLOY Rotational Development Program – the RDP – will put you in the center of our Accounting and Finance organizations. Offering the broadest view of our business, you’ll be a key member of teams while rotating through multiple assignments at various facilities within the Commercial Segment of the Americas Division. Gain first‑hand knowledge from our world‑class, experienced professionals, and accelerate your career.

Two Focus Areas

Operational Accounting

In this rotation, you will learn about the financial aspects of our business and how they impact our operations. You will work with accounting team members, controllers, and finance managers to prepare and analyse financial reports, budgets, and forecasts. You will also gain exposure to our internal control processes, audit processes, tax compliance and cost accounting methods.

Financial Planning and Analysis

In this rotation, you will learn about the strategic aspects of our business and how they influence our financial performance. You will work with finance team members, business unit leaders, and senior management to develop and evaluate business plans, investment proposals (capital equipment), and profitability analysis. You will also gain insight into our market dynamics, competitive landscape, and growth opportunities.

Optional Rotation Areas

ERP

In this rotation, you will learn about our enterprise resource planning (ERP) system and how it supports our business operations. You will work with IT team members, finance staff, and business analysts to understand how our ERP system integrates data and processes across various functions, such as accounting, inventory, sales, and purchasing. You will also learn how to use our ERP system to generate reports, monitor performance, and troubleshoot issues.

Production

During this rotation, you will experience our production processes first‑hand. You will work with production team members, manufacturing engineering, and plant leadership teams to ensure our products are built and shipped to our customers’ satisfaction.

Operational Excellence

During this rotation, you will work closely with our Operations problem solvers. These team members are experts at implementing LEAN tools, executing Six Sigma projects, planning new facilities, and consolidating existing sites. You will have the opportunity to improve your project management skills and develop innovative solutions to tackle real‑world challenges

Supply Chain

During this rotation, you will work with our Global Supply Chain team. You will have the opportunity to enhance your logistics, planning, and purchasing skills while optimizing how our supply chain services our production, and warehousing, facilities. In today’s globalized marketplace, our supply chain professionals are experts at ensuring a steady flow of materials while optimizing our cost structure.

About you

To be a competitive candidate, you will need to be an intellectually curious team player, ready to take on the challenges of tomorrow. We expect you to have an Accounting or Finance‑related degree with a minimum 3.0 GPA. Completing prior, degree‑specific internships is desirable. You should have a strong track record of involvement and engagement with on/off campus activities. You must have excellent communication skills, a self‑starter, motivated, and driven to seek out challenges and find solutions. As a member of the RDP, you will have an opportunity to see and work at many of our manufacturing locations. You must be willing to relocate to each rotation site as well as be prepared to travel for potential trips.
