At Scania Industrial Batteries AB, I coach and lead the category purchasing team for direct materials in industrial battery packs and new projects. I’m driving over 10% BOM cost reduction through cross-functional engagement and negotiation.

At Northvolt Systems AB, I led a team of 8 procurement professionals managing €100M in annual spend. I completed supplier selection and industrialization for 150+ suppliers across projects, including RFQs, contract negotiations and tool-up.

As Procurement Manager at Northvolt Systems AB, I delivered a 35% BOM cost reduction within 12 months of production launch and improved source-to-pay processes to 100% compliance. I also established decarbonization roadmaps across the global supplier base.

At Alimak AB, I developed category strategies and led best-cost country outsourcing with supplier industrialization, achieving a 25% cost reduction on metal fabrication. Earlier, at Oil & Natural Gas Corporation Ltd, I advanced to a C-suite advisory role for large-value procurement decisions and managed a €20M+ annual capital expenditure procurement portfolio.
