hela Sverige Are you passionate about leading transformative projects and eager to shape the future of sustainable steel production? SSAB is looking for an ambitious Cost Control Engineer to join us on our exciting journey. At SSAB, we are committed to sustainability and aim to eliminate all CO2 emissions by 2030. This position is based in Luleå, Sweden.
At SSAB, we are proud of our history and leadership in high-strength steel. Steel has been one of the most important materials for developing society and will continue to be vital in shaping the future. From the roofs over our heads to the bridges connecting our cities and the cars of tomorrow, steel plays a crucial role. However, we also recognize that steel production is one of the largest contributors to greenhouse gas emissions globally, and that must change. That is why we have developed the world's first fossil-free steel production and are committed to becoming largely fossil-free by 2030. As part of SSAB, you will play a key role in helping us achieve this ambitious goal and drive the green transformation of the steel industry.
