Job Description:

Let's shape the future together

Do you want to be a part of creating the exciting solutions of tomorrow's mobility? Then look no further, join us.

Let's introduce ourselves

Volvo Cars is on an ambitious journey to redefine customer experience in the automotive industry.

Our ambition is clear: to grow in a safe, sustainable, and personal way, giving people the freedom to move.

Volvo Cars Italy plays a key role in this transformation. The Corporate (Fleet) sales channel in Italy is growing, presenting exciting opportunities to develop innovative sales approaches and long-term partnerships with key customers and mobility providers.

* Providing commercial support to fleet customers and Full Service Leasing (FSL) companies
* Implementing and coordinating marketing and commercial activities within the fleet business community
* Collaborating closely with internal stakeholders to ensure a strong value proposition and excellent customer experience

The role is primarily based in the Milano area, with regular travel within Italy as part of your responsibilities (70-80%).

What you'll bring

To succeed in this role, you combine strong commercial acumen with a customer-centric mindset and a passion for innovation. We believe you have:

* Solid experience and excellent knowledge of the fleet and corporate sales environment
* Previous experience in a similar role within the automotive industry or with a Full Service Leasing (FSL) company (mandatory)
* A master's degree in Engineering, Business Administration, Economics, or a comparable field
* Experience using digital and analytical tools such as MS Office 365, MS Power BI, and familiarity with web, social media, and eCommerce environments
* Fluency in English, both written and spoken
* Native-level proficiency in Italian

As a person, you are a team-oriented professional with modern leadership capabilities. You are results-driven, curious, and motivated by finding new solutions. You enjoy working with customers, listening to their needs with care and attention, and you take a broader interest in how the business and organization evolve. You are energized by change, new technologies, and being challenged to continuously improve.
