Chief Project Manager

What you will do

At Volvo Autonomus solutions and in Product you will contribute to the transformation of our company, the transport industry and society at large. You will: 

• Lead and deliver complex and larger or smaller-scale autonomous transport projects — from early idea through to implementation and operation.

• Take full accountability for ensuring projects are delivered on time, within budget, and to the agreed scope and quality.

• Act as the central point of contact for all project matters — no task is too small or too big if it supports successful delivery.

• Proactively identify, assess, and mitigate project risks to secure stable progress.

• Drive effective cost control, resource planning, and change management to keep projects on track.

• Bring together cross-functional teams and partners, ensuring clear communication and close collaboration throughout the project lifecycle.

• Foster an open, inclusive, and solution-oriented project culture, where everyone feels empowered to contribute and committed to shared goals.

• Always keep the customer, safety, and sustainability at the core of decision-making.

Your future team

You’ll join Product Quarry & Mining — a diverse team of dedicated project managers, feature engineers, site designers, and product planners. We bring together deep industry experience and fresh ideas, combining technical expertise with genuine passion for shaping the future of autonomous solutions. Expect a high-energy, high-ceiling environment where we share knowledge openly, tackle challenges together, and have fun while making a real difference.

Who are you?

Do you dream big? We do too, and we are excited to grow together. In this role, you will bring: 

Essential:

• Solid experience leading large, complex projects — both technical and cross-functional — within the automotive industry.

• Proven track record of working with new, cutting-edge technologies — ideally technology so innovative you won’t find it by searching online.

• Strong skills in risk management, cost control, and change management to keep projects on track and deliver real value.

• Excellent communication, collaboration, and stakeholder management abilities — you build trust and alignment across teams and functions.

• A start-up mindset — comfortable with ambiguity, proactive in solving challenges, and always ready to roll up your sleeves.

• A high level of personal drive and accountability — this is not a role for someone looking to coast. We are in a critical phase where the right action, at the right time, makes the difference between success and failure. Obstacles will come — you thrive on removing them, finding solutions, and pushing the work forward without waiting for someone else to fix it.

• An open mindset, curiosity, and the motivation to thrive in a fast-evolving technology environment.

Nice to Have:

• Background in the mining business or related heavy industry.

• Experience in areas like purchasing, customer sales, or marketing, giving you a broader view of the product lifecycle and customer value.

At Volvo Autonomous Solutions, we believe diverse perspectives drive progress — we welcome applicants from all backgrounds and are committed to building an inclusive, collaborative team.

What’s in it for you?

We offer a competitive package of compensation and benefits — but just as important, you’ll find real value in how we care for our people and help them thrive.

At Volvo Autonomous Solutions:

• People come first. We prioritize your wellbeing with a supportive culture, a strong focus on safety, and benefits that help you and your family feel secure and cared for.

• You’ll join a positive, high-energy team where we share knowledge openly, celebrate each other’s successes, and tackle challenges together.

• We believe in flexibility — our ways of working support work-life balance and give you the freedom to grow both professionally and personally.

• Your development matters. You’ll have opportunities to build your skills, take on new responsibilities, and grow your career — across roles, functions, and even countries, if you wish.

• Our workplaces are inspiring. You’ll be based in a modern, collaborative environment with access to excellent on-site services and the tools you need to succeed.

When you join us, you join a global Volvo Group community committed to shaping the future of sustainable, autonomous transport — together.
