About the role: You will be part of Process Industries, a division within ABB's Process Automation business area that delivers complete electrification and automation solutions, industry-specific products and lifecycle services to customers in the mining, pulp and paper, metals, battery, aluminum and cement industries. Your role will focus on the Swedish customers in Pulp and Paper and in the metal industry. Our strength lies in our deep industry knowledge and ability to integrate both electrical and automation systems into plant projects, resulting in faster start-up times, increased productivity and reduced overall capital and operating costs for our customers.

Together with colleagues responsible for the customers and colleagues from different technology areas such as automation, digitization, process optimization, you form a customer team within the business area that works together for the long term. You will build relationships both externally with customers and internally within ABB and be part of business negotiations to ensure the customer value of proposed solutions becomes clear and thus win orders for ABB.

You will constantly work with end customers, suppliers, partners and together with the entire ABB team, all to transform ABB's expertise into increased customer value and success.
