SSAB stands out in the global steel industry through its commitment to sustainability and innovation. As part of our fossil-free transformation in Luleå, we are replacing the existing production system with new mini-mill technology and adding a cold mill complex with enhanced capabilities. This investment will reduce Sweden's total carbon dioxide emissions by approximately 7%.
We are now looking for a senior Construction Area Project Manager to lead the execution of our new Melt Shop - a central part of this historic transformation.
Location is flexible, preferably Luleå or Stockholm, with regular travel to site.
Becoming part of the SSAB family means joining a journey. A journey that we believe is essential for the sustainability of this planet. Steel has been one of the most important materials for developing our society and it will continue to be so. In the roofs over our heads, in the bridges connecting our cities and in the cars of tomorrow. At SSAB we are proud of our history and leadership in high-strength steel. But we are also aware that the production of steel is one of the largest emitters of greenhouse gases in the world. That has to change. That is why we have developed the world's first fossil free steel production and has committed to becoming largely fossil-free by around 2030. As part of SSAB you will be instrumental in realizing this goal and push for the green transformation of the whole steel industry.
