We welcome candidates at different stages of their careers. Your level of responsibility will reflect your experience, giving you the opportunity to grow while learning from colleagues with different areas of expertise. 


Who you will work with 

You will be part of Group Procurement and work closely with colleagues within IT, procurement and different parts of Boliden's business. You will also build relationships with IT suppliers, consultants and service providers.


Collaboration and knowledge sharing are important parts of the role. You will work with colleagues who bring different areas of expertise, while having the opportunity to take ownership of your sourcing assignments and contribute your own ideas. 


The positions can be based in Stockholm or Boliden, with another Boliden location potentially considered by agreement. In Stockholm, you'll work from Boliden’s Head Office, centrally located with excellent access to public transportation and local amenities such as a gym.

  • Build trusted relationships with IT, procurement, business stakeholders and external suppliers. 
  • Analyze spend and supplier markets to identify sourcing opportunities and support informed decisions. 
  • Contribute to IT category strategies and the continued development of how Boliden procures IT products and services. 
  • Contribute to responsible sourcing by balancing commercial value, sustainability, compliance and risk. 

What you bring 

You enjoy creating structure when several priorities need attention and are comfortable taking responsibility for moving an assignment forward while involving others when their expertise is needed. 


You build trusted relationships by listening to different perspectives and communicating clearly. You are comfortable working between technical and commercial stakeholders and can turn complex information into practical sourcing decisions. 


You approach challenges with curiosity and a solution-oriented mindset. You are also comfortable constructively questioning existing approaches and contributing ideas for improvement. We value colleagues who share knowledge, ask questions and contribute to an open and collaborative working environment. 


Qualifications are: 

  • An academic degree or relevant professional experience that provides an equivalent foundation. 
  • Experience in strategic sourcing or procurement. 
  • Understanding of IT contracts, commercial agreements and licensing models. 
  • Ability to understand technical concepts and translate them into commercial requirements and decisions. 
  • Professional proficiency in English.

It is an advantage if you have: 

Experience in IT procurement or sourcing is an advantage, particularly within areas such as software, IT services, consulting, hardware or telecom.
