Strategic Buyer

Coretura is a joint venture between Volvo Group and Daimler Truck, building the software platform for the next generation of commercial vehicles — with the pace of a startup and the backing of two industry leaders. We're looking for a strategic Buyer to lead sourcing within Vision & Perception: the software and hardware — cameras, radar, sensors — behind ADAS. You'll own supplier strategy and relationships end to end, and help build the partner ecosystem for a software-defined vehicle platform. What you'll do As our Buyer within V&P you'll develop and own the sourcing strategy. That means leading supplier selection, running contract negotiations, and turning key suppliers into long-term partners. From there, it's about making those partnerships deliver. You'll drive cost, quality, supply security, and resilience across your segment, and act as the main commercial contact for your suppliers. You'll also keep things safe and compliant, making sure IP, cybersecurity, and regulatory requirements are covered before any commitment is made. What you bring 7+ years in procurement, with proven experience sourcing software A background in Vision & Perception or related domains (hardware sourcing such as sensors/radar is a strong plus) Strong negotiation skills and a sharp commercial mindset A degree in Business, Engineering, Procurement, or similar Why Coretura? Coretura is a scaleup building something the industry hasn't seen before. You'll have real ownership from day one: shaping how a brand-new platform is sourced and making decisions that stick, without layers of sign-off slowing you down. You get the scale and backing of Volvo Group and Daimler Truck, with the pace and autonomy of a scaleup. What you build here matters. Next Steps Ready to build the future of commercial vehicles?
