Head of Front Frame, Fabrication Braås

What you will do

As a Head of Front Frame at Volvo CE in Braås, you will play a key role in our daily manufacturing operations and leadership of approximately 25 team members. You will be responsible for one of our production areas, covering processes such as plate cutting, machining, welding, and painting, ensuring smooth transition of parts to the assembly department.

Your primary focus will be to lead your team toward common goals, prioritizing safety, quality, delivery, and cost efficiency. You will engage your team through an inclusive leadership style, focusing on individual and group development.

In this role, you will have responsibility for:

• Health, safety, and environmental management within your production area
• Employee and competency development
• Budget and financial results for your section
• Tracking and monitoring of goals and key performance indicators (KPIs), acting on deviations
• Driving continuous improvement in production flows and processes

You will report directly to the Manufacturing Manager and be part of the Manufacturing leadership team.

Your future team

You will join a team of six dedicated Production Leaders, all working closely together to drive daily operations and development within the manufacturing department. We pride ourselves on having an open, supportive atmosphere where collaboration and a positive work environment are key to our success. As a team, we work closely with other departments to ensure efficiency and quality at every step.

Who are you?

We value personality and attitude highly – it’s your approach and leadership that will make the difference. You are a hands-on, visible leader who engages and coaches your team to perform at their best. You have a holistic view of your production area and how it fits into the overall manufacturing process.

We would like you to have:

• Experience in leadership with personnel responsibility
• The ability to inspire and coach employees while leading through change
• Strong communication skills in both Swedish and English
• Knowledge and experience with Lean Production – both theoretical and practical
• A high school diploma or relevant higher education in technical or leadership fields (preferred)

What’s in it for you?

At Volvo CE, you’ll be part of a values-driven organization where you can shape the future of manufacturing. You’ll join a global company with ample opportunities for professional and personal development. In Braås, you’ll experience the best of both worlds: the close-knit environment of a smaller team, combined with the strength and support of a global organization.
