About the role
Do you have a strong interest in Automotive? Are you motivated by helping others develop and ready to take on a more leading role? AFRY is now looking for a Group Manager, where your leadership skills together with your willingness to contribute with your knowledge to our clients will come into their own!
In your role as Group Manager, you will belong to a section that today consists of 23 consultants specializing in product development in Automotive. Our consulting assignments are carried out both at the customer and in our premises as "inhouse assignments". It is a great team that is motivated by supporting our customers in the best way, helping each other and having fun at work!
As Group Manager, you will work closely with the Section Manager and you will work together to create a prosperous section where the development of the team is a focus area for you, ie. to lead and coach consultants in assignments. It may also be relevant to be involved in recruitment to the section.
You will also have the opportunity to develop your ability to create and maintain relationships with customers by actively working with sales of our services, where you yourself drive that work forward and build your sales areas. As part of the group manager role, you will work operationally in assignments for our customers and thus still have a foot in the technical work.
Why work with us? - "It is very important that you enjoy your work. In the day-to-day work, we support each other and share responsibilities, challenges and successes. You are driven by your own and the team's development, to succeed together and to have fun along the way." Björn Eriksson, Business Unit Manager
