Supply Chain Planning Analyst

Our job is to keep society running. Making sure that food gets to the grocery store, hospitals have electricity, and that people can commute to work. We do that by making sure that Volvo Group trucks, engines, buses, and construction equipment keep running uninterrupted all over the world. Together with other talented people from a diversity of backgrounds and with a wide variety of skills we make sure that spare parts are available when they are needed in a sustainable distribution network with thousands of dealerships.

To make that magic happen we combine supply chain knowledge with data analytics in an exploratory environment where organization and hierarchy are less important.

We forecast global spare parts demand and optimize inventory to ensure the right parts are available in the right place at the right time. Our team supports Volvo Trucks, Volvo Construction Equipment, Volvo Buses, and Volvo Penta, working closely with the broader Service Market Logistics organization.

We lead the Sales and Operations Planning (S&OP) process and are building PlanIT, our cloud-native planning solution on Azure, which will be the digital backbone of our operations going forward.

Who You Are

We’re looking for someone who is eager to join our transformation journey, who can bridge the analytical and operational worlds to improve how we plan, simulate, and steer our global supply chain.

You might be a great fit if you are:

• Skilled at navigating the complexity of a global and dynamic supply chain

• Curious and proactive in leading or contributing to cross-functional processes like S&OP

• Analytical and experienced with simulation, optimization, or advanced modeling

• An ambitious self-starter who thrives on solving real-world challenges creatively

• Excited to grow your skills in Python, SQL, Power BI, and cloud platforms (Azure or AWS)

• Interested in learning and applying agile ways of working

• Comfortable communicating insights effectively in English to both peers and senior leaders

We are looking for someone with strong analytical skills who enjoys working with large datasets to uncover actionable insights. Experience in logistics, supply chain, or inventory management — whether from studies or work — is highly valuable.

Required background: University degree in Industrial Engineering, Statistics, Computer Science, Logistics, or a related field.

Interviews will be conducted continuously – so if you feel you are the right person, please send your application today.

We are looking forward to welcoming you as soon as possible but you can also join a bit after the target start date.
