We are looking for an Equipment as a Service Solution Manager
At Volvo Financial Services, we are transforming together to shape the world we want to live in. As the captive finance arm of the Volvo Group, VFS delivers innovative, responsive financial solutions that fit the way businesses work today, as well as how they will work in the future. Through our dedication to innovation, we support our customers in the adoption of sustainable transport and equipment solutions.
At VFS, you will be part of a global and diverse team of trusted financial experts in the transportation and equipment industry whose passion is to cultivate customer relationships. We are knowledgeable, yet approachable, and customers can always count on us. We also embrace new ideas and challenge the status quo, believing that innovation is driven by a willingness to change to stay ahead and find smart ways to create new solutions to help our customers win.
Equipment as a Service (EaaS) is a Volvo Group offer that bundles all of the services and solutions provided by the Group and its partners, providing customers a contracted level of electric vehicle capacity, rather than requiring an outright purchase or lease or an electric vehicle.
In partnership with the Volvo Group brands, VFS is facilitating the development of a common platform that will serve as the foundation for the Volvo Group’s EaaS activities in the future. To accomplish this, VFS is applying a commercial CAST approach to further define and develop a single platform for EaaS across the Volvo Group. Using CAST, or Common Architecture, Shared Technology, thinking allows VFS to create a scalable, cost-effective solution, while giving Group brands the ability to fully customize offers for their customers.
The Equipment as a Service Solutions Manager is part of VFS Global Headquarters and reports to the VP EaaS. We will be hiring two EaaS Solutions Managers with one being based in Greensboro, NC USA and the other in Eskilstuna, Sweden.
