About the Job 

As a Business Architect – Product Sustainability, you will be instrumental in aligning Alfa Laval’s product information to support Alfa Laval’s ambitious sustainability and circularity objectives, with a primary focus on the Digital Product Passport. This foundational work will not only ensure compliance but also unlock significant opportunities, particularly within our service and aftermarket business. Over the coming years, while your core focus will be on sustainability and service, you will also contribute to other vital areas within the product domain. 

Your key stakeholders will include our Business Units, where you will interface with product development, sustainability, and service functions. You will also collaborate closely with our Enterprise Architects and Group Sustainability teams.
