About Scandinavian Cosmetics

Scandinavian Cosmetics is one of the leading companies in sales, marketing and distribution of well-known brands within the Nordic beauty industry. We are committed to our customers and our portfolio of attractive brands. With a positive attitude, knowledge and passion we build long-term relationships. We are an attractive business partner that drives the market forward.

About the role

At Scandinavian Cosmetics, procurement is an important part of our Nordic Finance & Operations team. In this role you will ensure not only strong operational delivery, but also contribute to building a culture characterised by collaboration, development and continuous improvement.

You will have dual responsibility – partly for your own brand portfolios, partly for leading, coaching and developing the team in day-to-day work. You drive improvement initiatives, challenge existing ways of working and help create a more data-driven, efficient and scalable procurement function.

As Team Lead you will also be a close partner to our brand teams, where you contribute insights, prioritisations and initiatives that strengthen the business and create value.

Responsibilities

Leadership, development & improvement

  • Lead, coach and support the procurement team in day-to-day work
  • Create engagement and drive a culture of continuous improvement
  • Identify and implement improvements in processes and ways of working
  • Ensure clear structure, prioritisation and efficient resource utilisation
  • Monitor team performance and contribute to both individual and shared development

Operational responsibility

  • Responsibility for forecasting, planning and monitoring of procurement and sales
  • Ensure efficient inventory management and optimisation of goods flows
  • Oversee deliveries from order to end customer
  • Approve and record supplier invoices within your area of responsibility
  • Drive analysis, reporting and monitoring within procurement and logistics
  • Conduct profitability analyses and identify improvement opportunities
  • Contribute to budget processes and business reviews together with brand owners

Who are you?

You are an analytical and business-oriented person with natural leadership and a strong drive to develop and improve. You enjoy a role where you can combine operational work with creating structure, efficiency and long-term development. Challenging the existing and driving change feels natural to you – and you see opportunities where others see obstacles.

As a person you are communicative, engaging and relationship-building. You build trust and collaborate closely both within the team and with other parts of the organisation.

We see that you have:

  • Academic qualifications in procurement, supply chain or equivalent
  • Experience from a procurement role, preferably with elements of leadership
  • Experience driving improvement work and developing processes
  • Good knowledge of Microsoft 365, particularly Excel
  • Experience with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and Power BI
  • Very good knowledge of Swedish and English
  • Strong analytical ability and a business-minded approach
  • Ability to work structurally, prioritise and deliver on time

Employment

  • Full-time
  • Permanent

What we offer

At Scandinavian Cosmetics we offer more than a job – we offer a workplace where people feel inspired, supported and empowered to grow. Our culture is built on joy, collaboration and a shared ambition to move forward together. Everything we do is guided by our four values: Go. Grow. Glow.

GO is about taking initiative, acting with courage and making things happen.

GROW is about learning together, supporting each other and developing as a team.

GLOW is the passion, energy and warmth we bring to our work and our relationships.

The office is located on floors 26 and 27 in The Point, Hyllie (Malmö) - a fantastic office with easy commute options for most people.
