Your profile
You have a background within general management, including previous accountability for profit and loss statements in a global, cross-functional business. A proven track record of managing sales and business development in different markets is necessary, and you have an excellent understanding of manufacturing processes and working with products. You know how to bring a division towards a successful future – listening to the needs of the customers, prioritizing areas of development and translating a strategy into clear and well communicated deployment plans. As we operate worldwide, you also need advanced verbal and written skills in English.

With business acumen, energy and ambition, you take the lead in decisions, and you’re skilled in capturing business opportunities and identifying improvements. Collaboration, communication and networking are your keys to making things happen – you’re an agile professional who brings people together, inspires change and leaves a positive impact.
