Are you motivated to be responsible of negotiating with the largest IT vendors in the world? Are you the one who continue to work against the target when everybody else has given up?
My name is Patric Englund and I’m the hiring manager for this position. Are you ready to join my team and be part of Atea’s journey as we merge our business activities across five countries into one Nordic unit? Do you want to play a crucial role in the strategic tasks of the coming years? If the answer is yes; here is a unique opportunity for you to be at the forefront of our transformation and gain invaluable experience in bringing Atea Managed Services (AMS) together into the Nordics’ largest IT service provider.
To work at Atea AMS, you can reside in Sweden, Denmark, or Norway, but as we work better together, we prefer that you live in a location that is close to one of our offices.

WHO ARE YOU?

We believe you will excel if you have a proven track record in negotiating large, complex vendor contracts and possess a deep understanding of the associated tactics, politics and legal aspects. You recognize yourself as someone who enjoys structure, are flexible and proactive, have a positive mindset and value teamwork.
You communicate well with everyone, from specialists to CxO-level executives, and are skilled in networking and stakeholder management. At Atea, collaboration is key, so we are looking for a team player who thrives in close cooperation with colleagues, customers and partner. You have a curious mindset and continuously seek ways to optimize workflows to reduce costs. Additionally, you have a solid grasp of financial budgets and forecasts.
