Swedbank is the fifth largest card acquirer in Europe and has a solid market position in Sweden and in the Nordics/Baltics. Working with us will have the opportunity to work with services impacting a very large number of customers; merchants as well as end-customers.
You will work together with a cross functional team with extensive knowledge, skills and experience in the services around acquiring in the Clearing & Settlement area, and also play and important role in the teams journey towards an agile way of working, which was started a couple of years ago. The CFT consists of software engineers, business analysts and an APO; everyone with focus on high qualitative deliveries of new development as well as lifecycle handling - all with a helpful and collaborative atmosphere in the team. You will also have a very close collaboration with the team´s APO and the Scrum Master for the addtional Acquiring SE CFT, as well as other key stakeholders in the Commerce area.

As a manager I believe that 1+1 equals 3, meaning that the collaboration between individuals with different skills and competences is the foundation for strong teams and successful deliveries. Positive energy and a solution-oriented atmosphere are key components for a good working climate, which I try to support as much as possible when assisting and facilitating you and the team to reach your goals. I also believe in a transparent climate, where all opinions and efforts count and that a real engagement combined with a holistic view makes the work so much more interesting.
