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 scaleup and the backing of two industry leaders. This is a strategic, build-it-from-scratch role. As Supply Chain Manager, you'll design the process that connects our suppliers directly to our OEM customers, and then own it end to end as we move from concept to scale. You'll decide how the flow should work, and the decisions you make will shape how a brand-new supply chain is built. What you'll do You'll design and own the end-to-end hardware flow, from supplier to OEM line. That means defining the process: the order flow, the financial flow, and the call on when and where to add inventory buffers. On the supplier side, you'll set logistics requirements and SLAs: lead times, delivery precision, capacity, and escalation. On the OEM side, you'll own the details that make deliveries land: EDI, shipping notifications, packaging and labelling, and logistics portals. Day to day you'll run order-to-delivery and keep the physical and financial flows aligned with Finance. You'll also track the KPIs that matter: OTD, delivery precision, lead times, and fill rates, and drive improvement together with Procurement and IT. Ideally, you've done some of this before: in commercial vehicles or automotive supply chains, with drop-shipment models, or building a supply chain from scratch in a scale-up. If so, you'll feel right at home. To thrive in this position, we believe you bring: Solid experience in supply chain, logistics, or operations (ideally automotive, electronics, or industrial) Strong grasp of end-to-end flows, order management, and planning Experience with OEM customers or complex B2B logistics, plus ERP/EDI tools A hands-on builder who's as comfortable setting strategy as executing it Why Coretura? You'll build something that doesn't exist yet, with the freedom to decide how it should work — and then see it run. You’ll have the freedom to drive projects forward, contribute ideas, and help shape the future of commercial vehicle technology. Our lean innovative team is always learning and adapting, your contributions will truly matter. Next steps Ready to build the future of commercial vehicles? Due to summer vacation, we will review all applicants during the first week of August. Last application date: 3rd of August 2026. Questions? Don’t hesitate to reach out to Victor Holkert at victor.holkert@coretura.com if you have any questions regarding the position or the process. Please note we do not accept any applications via email.
