Would you like to help shape Alleima’s strategic direction and turn business opportunities into meaningful results?

At Alleima our mission is much more than delivering high value-added products, advanced technology, and processes – working together to develop solutions based on our customers’ needs, and, thereby, achieving our business goals is a better description of our daily work.

Alleima has a clear growth ambition with set targets to strengthen our market position and accelerate businesses’ development in interesting fast-growing industry segments. With curious co-workers and safety as our first priority, we create a work environment where you can grow both personally and professionally.

About the role

As Strategy & Business Development Lead, you will help shape Alleima’s corporate strategy and contribute to long-term business growth and value creation. By exploring market trends, customer needs, competitive landscapes and emerging opportunities, you will translate insights into strategic recommendations and actionable initiatives.

Working closely with our divisions and senior leaders, you will support strategic planning and decision-making while leading complex, cross-functional projects that turn strategic priorities into tangible results.

You will also support the preparation and communication of strategic insights and plans for Group Executive Management and the Board of Directors, helping ensure alignment with Alleima’s strategic objectives.

Location for this position is Stockholm or Sandviken. If you’re based in Stockholm traveling to Sandviken and, at times, international travel is a natural part of the role.

Your key responsibilities

• Drive and contribute to the development of Alleima’s corporate strategy.
• Advance continuous business improvement, with a focus on strategy, commercial and operational excellence, and value creation.
• Provide strategic analysis and support to the CEO, Group Executive Management and the Board of Directors.
• Advise leadership teams on strategic planning and initiatives, from initial ideas through execution.
• Lead development projects and facilitate workshops.
• Strengthen business intelligence capabilities by developing insights on markets, competitors, technology and macroeconomic trends.
• Build and maintain cross-functional and international relationships to share ideas, experience and expertise.
• Lead or contribute to M&A projects.

About you

You bring experience in strategy, business development or management consulting, preferably from an industrial or international business environment, together with a university degree in finance, engineering, business administration or a related field.

Your background includes leading strategic projects, conducting market and business analyses, and identifying opportunities that contribute to business growth and long-term value creation. You are comfortable working with complex information, developing structured strategies and translating insights into practical recommendations and actions.

To succeed in this role, you combine analytical thinking with business understanding, curiosity and a solution-oriented mindset. You take initiative, challenge perspectives constructively and enjoy turning ideas into meaningful results. With a collaborative and consultative approach, you build trust, engage stakeholders and create alignment across functions and geographies.

You communicate complex topics clearly and confidently, adapting your message to different audiences, including senior management and the Board of Directors. As we operate in a global environment, you are comfortable communicating in English, both verbally and in writing.

Experience from M&A-related activities, such as market assessments, due diligence or integration, is considered an advantage.

If you enjoy connecting strategic thinking with business opportunities and believe that collaboration and different perspectives contribute to better results, this could be the right next step for you.

What you can expect from us

At Alleima, you will be part of a global organization where collaboration, curiosity and continuous development are at the heart of what we do. We believe that diverse perspectives and an inclusive workplace help us make better decisions, create new opportunities and grow together.

In this role, you will have the opportunity to contribute to Alleima's strategic direction, work closely with colleagues and leaders across our business, and turn ideas and insights into meaningful results. You will be part of an environment where your expertise, initiative and perspectives are valued, and where we work together to create long-term value for our customers and our business.
