And now, we want you to be a part of it. Join us on a new journey - as we pioneer a brand new, global role as a Global Telephony Owner.

In this key role, you'll be at the forefront of innovation, part of a dynamic and dedicated team where collaboration thrives, and every day brings new opportunities to make a difference within Husqvarna Group. Together, we'll embark on a mission; to revolutionize telecommunications services on a global scale.

About the position:

This is more than just a new role - it's your chance to create and shape an innovative telecommunication system from the ground up within a prestigious global company, with 334 years of heritage and innovation.

As Husqvarna Group's Global Telephony Owner, you'll spearhead our telecommunication strategy, ensuring seamless and secure communications across all divisions. This vital role allows you to shape our new VOIP telecommunication framework, aligning it with our strategic objectives and the latest in technology.

The role is new to Husqvarna Group and the first years will be to build up cloud based VOIP telecommunication services, utilizing Microsoft Teams platform.

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop and execute a telecommunication strategy in line with company goals.
• Stay updated on telephony tech for competitive edge.

About you:

Whether you’re currently at a consulting firm specializing in telephony solutions or have hands-on experience deploying such solutions from a similar company to ours, your expertise will be crucial.

You're a dynamic leader, skilled in driving digital transformation and change within Telephony and Collaboration Operations. Effective communication skills are necessary for collaborating with teams and explaining technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders. You prioritize meeting the communication needs of our stakeholders – and are fluent in English (Swedish is a plus).

Furthermore, you possess a good understanding of budgeting and financial analysis, enabling you to optimize costs while achieving objectives.
