Transport is at the core of modern society. Imagine using your expertise to shape sustainable transport and infrastructure solutions for the future?

At the Global Pensions ALM function, we develop, implement, and follow up on pension-related investment strategies and journey plans with the aim to gradually reduce investment risks related to defined benefit pension schemes, and by that reduce the cash flow risk for the Volvo Group throughout the business cycle.

  • Ability to verbally present and argue for propositions effectively.
  • Ability to work in challenging situations when pursuing next-step solutions.
  • Fluent in English, spoken and written. Preferably also fluent in Swedish.
What’s in it for you?


  • An opportunity to work with a variety of challenges in the pension ALM field
  • You will be one of few group specialists, having the possibility to propose and execute on strategies and ideas
