President Attachment Tools Divison

We’re looking for an experienced and forward-thinking business leader to join us as President at Attachment Tools Division – someone who shares our vision of making the shift and advancing the world through engineering. We’re part of the business area Sandvik Rock Processing Solutions (SRP) – an industrial leader in breaking, demolition and recycling solutions for mining and construction applications.

We’re on an exciting growth journey, building the new digital era of manufacturing, and we have the know-how and innovative mindset to develop ideas into pioneering tech solutions. Adding your strategic mind, value-based leadership style and entrepreneurial outlook, we’re ready to lead this work and aim even higher to enforce our top position!

Your mission

With an evolutionary, customer centric approach, you drive our global business models and take full ownership of future directions. You ensure growth, efficiency, profitability and innovation – both through organic development and through acquisitions, partnerships and alliances. You set the division strategy, organizational design and operations, and you ensure execution through a performance driven culture. By staying on top of our progress, driving improved cost agility, investing in opportunities and building confidence in decision-making, you protect the value and strengths of SRP. You also follow trends and market shifts to adapt our entire business to the reality we’re facing.

Acting in our decentralized environment, you’re known for building strong teams, your great collaboration skills and the way you form strong networks. As part of our organization, you work closely with all relevant parts of Sandvik Group, and you also establish smart and effective ways of interacting with key stakeholders. Other important items on your agenda are empowering our work with diversity and inclusion and making sure we conduct business in a safe and sustainable manner. You have full profit and loss responsibility, as well as main items on the balance sheet.

You report to the President of Sandvik Rock Processing Solutions and are an active member of our business area management teams. The preferred location for this position is Lathi, Finland, but other locations may also be an option. Global travelling is included in your assignment.

Your background and character

We’re looking for a qualified and inspiring mentor with a value-based leadership style. You put development, progress and customer focus first, and you establish a grounded and successful mix of organic growth with acquisitions. With an updated mindset and digital experience from the industrial sector, you’re skilled in transforming traditional businesses into new technology and modern business models.

You have an extensive background within general management, including previous accountability for profit and loss statements in a global setting. You have additional competence in driving sales through a matrix structure. Ideally you have experience in front line sales in a dealer-based model, and in a direct sales project environment. Another merit is experience from a listed company environment, and you know how to balance and act on a visionary strategy with the tactical ability of driving execution. Doing business in all corners of the world calls for an open mind and cultural awareness, and advanced communication skills in English.

Collaboration, stakeholder management and true business acumen are your success factors, and you capture opportunities in innovations and new ideas without losing track of your direction. You’re also confident and brave in decision-making and you take the lead in initiating change. Just like us, you put trust in the power of teamwork, and you promote an entrepreneurial culture where people engage to increase performance.

Our culture

At Sandvik, we’re tech driven, innovative and entrepreneurial. We believe that success is a team effort so we value diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive culture where people can be themselves and reach their full potential.
