Company description

AFRY offers services in engineering, design, digitalization and consulting. We are dedicated experts in industry, energy and infrastructure, creating value for future generations. AFRY has a global reach with deep roots in the Nordics. Together we accelerate the transition to a more sustainable society.

About the role

Ready for a challenge?

Do you have a lot of knowledge in purchasing, worked at least three years after graduation, and are now curious to work as a consultant in purchasing? Or have you worked many years in purchasing and want to find new challenges and development opportunities in purchasing? Maybe you are the one we are waiting for!

Why work with us?

We now offer an exciting opportunity to continue to develop with us! As a consultant at AFRY, you are employed by us and work at one of our clients.

AFRY's Supply Chain Management business unit specializes in purchasing, logistics, production and projects. Thanks to our collective experience and broad expertise in Purchasing and Supply Chain, we successfully assist our clients in projects and assignments in areas such as:

  • Strategic and operational purchasing: Direct and Indirect Purchasing
  • Category Purchasing
  • Contract and Investment Purchasing
  • Project Management Purchasing
  • Interim Manager Purchasing
  • Business Development and Change Management in Purchasing and Supply Chain
  • Project Management, Requirements and Procurement
  • Construction Logistics: Logistics analysis and design of logistics solutions

Requirements

We are looking for you with a technical university degree, preferably industrial economics or equivalent, and experience working with the purchase of technical products, systems or services. You have at least three years of experience in the field, but we also welcome applicants with a more senior profile. Experience from industries such as the automotive industry, life science and manufacturing industry is meritorious.

As a person, you are driven, purposeful, analytical and structured. It is important that you are interested in building contacts, both internally and externally, and that you are responsive and communicative in order to best nurture those contacts further. Sharing your knowledge with customers and colleagues is a matter of course, and you are a humble and service-oriented person.

To succeed in the role, good knowledge of Swedish and English is required, both in speech and in writing. At times, travel may be a natural part of your role. We therefore assume that you have a driving license B and can imagine traveling some (when and how we plan together).

In addition, everyone at AFRY is offered a generous annual wellness allowance, occupational health care, occupational pension and membership of our fantastic staff association, Club AFRY Göteborg, which organizes lots of activities - everything from ski trips and training to theaters and lectures.
