Description
ABOUT US   At Daimler Truck, we change today’s transportation and create real impact together. We take responsibility around the globe and work together as one global team. We drive our progress and success together – everyone at Daimler Truck makes the difference. Together, we want to reduce our carbon footprint, increase safety on and off the track, develop smarter technology and attractive financial solutions. All essential, to fulfill our purpose - for all who keep the world moving.   Become part of our global team: You make the difference - YOUMAKEUS   Within Daimler Truck, the Truck Technology Operations Supply Chain organization covers a broad end-to-end scope across the powersystems supply chain, with a focus on plants in Kassel, Mannheim, Gaggenau and Detroit as well as global parts supply for overseas operations. Our work spans core supply chain domains such as supplier steering, in-plant logistics, transportation, network management, and digitalization. With Supply Chain 2050, we are launching a forward-looking industry–academia initiative to explore how the world of 2050 may evolve and what this could mean for future supply chains. The ambition is to think beyond today’s constraints, understand how to make supply chain a true differentiator in the future, and identify which strategic choices and capabilities need to be built already today. The project follows a two-step logic: it starts with unconstrained exploration of future worlds and their implications for supply chains, and then translates these insights into more focused pathways and selected areas for deeper work.  
Responsibilities
Conduct research for the Supply Chain 2050 initiative to explore future supply chain evolutions and strategic capabilities. Translate broad future scenarios into structured insights and concrete research pathways for the industry-academia network.
