About this role
Sandvik Machining Solutions (SMS) is taking the next step in our strategy to develop and expand our digital offering, by establishing a new Product Area (PA), Sandvik Applied Manufacturing Technologies (SAMT), with a dual mission: to profitably expand our position within manufacturing by creating and bringing premium digital offerings to markets across the manufacturing value chain, and to support value creation through digitalization across all businesses within SMS. The missions are reflected in the structure of SAMT consisting of two principle parts. One part is a portfolio of customer facing and self-sufficient Business Units (BU’s) which is growing fast, both organically and through mergers and acquisitions, and already contain several leading brands in their respective fields. The other part is the development of Center of Digital Excellence (CODE), to ensure high quality support to these BU’s and to execute the digital strategy across SMS. SAMT is transforming how we integrate and grow companies in a digital business portfolio. Because of this, we are now looking for a driven Business Integration Specialist with a solid background in mergers and acquisitions to join our recently formed Integration team. This is an exciting opportunity to excel your career as SAMT continues to expand its footprints within the digital space of manufacturing. You get to be in from the very beginning, with planned merger and acquisition (M&A) projects on an international level ahead of you and in a position where you truly drive positive change. This position is located at Epicenter in Stockholm, and international travel is a natural part of the job. Your mission – Using your integration expertise to achieve operational excellence As a Business Integration Specialist, you collaborate with management and leadership teams within our growing portfolio of BU’s in analyzing, developing and integrating processes and information models to make them more efficient. Acting as a domain and technical expert, you are responsible for identifying and defining program and service delivery requirements; supporting the development and acquisition of companies and products. You participate in the development of integration strategies and frameworks to achieve operational excellence, and bring expertise to the overall analysis of design and architecture of solutions. This includes identifying short- and long-term goals and objectives for integration projects followed by a supporting role during implementation. Your character – A mature leader with a solid background in mergers and acquisitions We are looking for someone with a Bachelors’ in a relevant field of studies, or the equivalent knowledge gained from a similar role. You have a solid background in M&A integration and a proven track record from successful business integration projects in an international environment, probably from a medium-sized or large organization. As we act on a truly global stage, you have fluent skills in both written and verbal English. Your character fascinates us. You are a strong and natural leader with a solution-oriented attitude, and a true achiever; taking ownership of the projects and always delivering on promise. This enables you to take lead of integrations and to work as a bridge between business and technology. Collaborating is key in this position, and you use your business acumen and your communicative skills to build solid, prosperous relationships with stakeholders at all levels. At Sandvik, we strongly believe that diversity of experience, perspective and background will lead to a better environment for our employees, our business and, thereby, our customers.
