This position is located in Gothenburg, Sweden.


Who are you?
Do you dream big? We do too, and we are excited to grow together. In this role, we believe it is the right mindset that will make a difference at VFS. If you, besides your genuine interest in working with people in Transforming Together, also have a positive, service-oriented, and collaborative mindset, and take a proactive approach to handling all responsibilities, idea generation, and recommendations for productivity and efficiency – then we would welcome you to apply for this role.

We believe the successful candidate possesses in-depth knowledge of credit and underwriting processes as well as experience with the development and monitoring of automated credit decision engines. You also have an effective level of ambition and ability to understand team and corporate objectives, demonstrate outstanding verbal, written and interpersonal communication skills as well as work with a high level of integrity and ethics.


Qualifications likely required to be successful in this role include:


  • BS/BA in Finance, Economics, Analytics, Information Systems, Engineering, Statistics, or related field is required.

  • Proven organizational ability with the capacity to prioritize and work effectively on multiple tasks in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment.
  • Communicate complex statistical and technical results to a non-technical audience
  • Fluency in reading, writing, and speaking English; additional languages a plus.
What’s in it for you?

As an investment, we support your personal development and growth to achieve your career aspirations. Volvo Financial Services is an on-site business and we understand that you might need occasional or temporary flexibility, which your leader is equipped to manage and fits well to our culture, as being together enables us to build upon our innovative and collaborative culture, as well as develop you for continued success.
