The logistics industry has seen increased constraints and challenges the last couple of years starting with the pandemic being followed by various supply chain disruptions.

The logistics task is more important than ever, and we are now looking for a Logistic Developer to join our team at our head quarter in Lund, Sweden.

Who is your future team?  

The Transport Logistics team is a high performing diverse team consisting of ten skilled persons with different age, gender, nationality, knowledge, and background. The combination makes us strong and add flavor and joy to our workplace.

The focus is on optimizing transport logistics. Currently, some team members focus on inbound flow to our Configuration and Logistics Centers (CLCs), some focus on the outbound flow from our CLCs to our sales markets and some on logistics administrative tasks. All persons understand and have insight of the full supply chain even if one has different focus area.

You will ensure that optimal prerequisites are in place for our logistics transactions and deliveries to run smooth in the global Supply Chain (operational excellence) and that we meet delivery precision goals at lowest possible cost.
