Who We Are

Saab Surveillance is on a significant and exciting transformation journey. We have evolved from a concurrent engineering, small-batch production environment into a high-volume manufacturer serving a wide and growing portfolio of international customers. That evolution demands that our Supply Chain and Operations functions grow with equal pace and ambition.
Our Supply Chain Excellence (SCE) team exists to make that happen - and we are building the team that will drive it.

Your role

This is not a traditional project management position. As Transformation Project Manager, you sit at the intersection of operational insight, commercial rigour, and organisational change. You take complex, data-driven analysis from our Supply Chain Operations Analysts and turn it into compelling, fully costed business cases that secure executive approval, funding, and resources.

Once approved, you own the initiative - end to end, from mobilisation to delivery.
You are equally at home on the shop floor, in a working group, and in front of a Business Unit Operations Board. You know how to read a room, adapt your approach, and bring people with you - including those who did not ask to be part of the journey.
This is a senior, autonomous, high-visibility role. You will report directly to the Head of Supply Chain Excellence and represent the function independently at decision-making councils and operational boards. You will be expected to earn that room - and keep it.
Initiative Delivery

Upon approval, take full ownership of the initiative through its entire project lifecycle.

Build and mobilise cross-functional working groups from approved, shared resources - individuals who retain their primary roles and responsibilities.

Actively protect your resources. Monitor hours, effort, and output to ensure working group members are not absorbed back into their day-to-day roles at the expense of the initiative.

Guide, mentor, support and where necessary instruct execution - bringing operational credibility to every interaction.

Maintain relentless focus on commitments - time, competence, and deliverables - across all stakeholders and working group members.

Stakeholder Management & Reporting

Report regularly and clearly to the Head of Supply Chain Excellence, Business Unit Operations Boards, and wider stakeholders.

Present current state, progress, successes, and bottlenecks in a transparent, simple, and visually compelling manner - tailored to the audience, always.

Use every success as an opportunity to reinforce the SCE function as a trusted advisor and value generator within the business.

Change Management
Apply structured change management principles to ensure initiatives land, stick, and deliver lasting impact.
Operate in environments of varying organisational maturity - reading the landscape and calibrating your approach accordingly
Build change capability around you as the function grows.

Your profile

Education

A Bachelor`s or Master`s degree in Engineering, Operations, Business, or a related discipline is preferred.
As with everything we do - we are pragmatists. A strong, demonstrable track record of operational transformation delivery will speak as loudly as any academic credential.

Full professional fluency in both English and Swedish.
