Head of Business Insights - Commercial AI and Data Office

Scania is undergoing a transformation from being a leading supplier of trucks, buses, and engines to providing complete and sustainable transport solutions. Together with TRATON and our sister brands MAN, Volkswagen Truck & Bus, and International, we are working to shape the future of mobility with innovative and environmentally conscious solutions.

Our values – customer first, respect, team spirit, responsibility, and elimination of waste – are at the heart of everything we do. Together, we are at the forefront of creating a sustainable future.

This Is Us

At the Commercial AI and Data Office within Scania Sales & Marketing, we work with four key missions:

1. To provide a common Data and AI foundation from a commercial perspective—driving data standardization, navigating laws and regulations, and setting best practices for working with AI architectures and the Data Mesh.
2. To accelerate the adoption of Data, Analytics, and AI across the Scania business by building and operating data-driven solutions.
3. To support Scania’s transformation into a truly data- and AI-driven organization through expert guidance and hands-on support in generating business insights.
4. To structure, assure the quality of, and automate Master Data across Scania for optimized and aligned analytical use.

We are now looking for a leader to take on the role of Head of Business Insights within Scania’s Commercial AI and Data Office.
