About the department and position

You will be part of our indirect procurement team in Huskvarna, which is responsible for all global transports within the Husqvarna Group, as well as road transports for parts of Europe, including distribution in the Nordic and Baltic regions. Our strategic goals are to deliver cost-effective logistics solutions that meet the requirements of the commercial organization, and we continuously strive to develop and improve our customer service.

The role includes all parts of the transportation process—from initial quote requests and negotiations to the implementation and follow-up of new and existing transport agreements. You will also be involved in handling financial reporting and act as a supporting contact when needed. Work will be conducted across all modes of transportation, including road, air, sea, and express, but your main focus will be on road transport within Europe, supporting the responsible transport manager.
