Job description

We are a team of engineers, designers and specialists who together create award-winning environments in acoustics, sound design and vibration. Since 1956, we have worked to improve people's everyday lives by shaping sound environments in everything from large international projects to local initiatives.

Do you want to help create a more sustainable and comfortable society together with us at AFRY? We are looking for you to join one of the world's most exciting teams in acoustics, sound and vibration. For us, technology is about people, and we are looking for you who have a genuine heart for how sound shapes our lives and environments.

With us, you will be part of a community of over 100 dedicated colleagues. We pride ourselves on being one of the world's leading centers of excellence, but what really makes us successful is our culture. We believe in unpretentiousness and a generous exchange of experience - here we help each other succeed.

We offer an international arena where collaboration is at the center. We offer you the opportunity to work in an inclusive environment where your voice is heard and your perspectives are valued. We know that diversity breeds creativity, and we look forward to welcoming your unique skills to our team.

We are now growing in Umeå and are looking for a new colleague who wants to contribute their perspective and expertise to our inclusive community.

Qualifications

We are looking for you who are either already established in the field or who now want to take the chance to explore acoustics our way. With us, engineering and design meet to create sound environments where people feel good. If you have previous experience in environmental and permit matters, we see it as a great asset to the team.

• We think you recognize yourself in this:

• You are driven by curiosity: You see opportunities in challenges and are inspired by continuously learning new things in a supportive environment.
• Relationships are important to you: You enjoy working in teams and understand the value of building trusting relationships, both with colleagues and customers.
• You want to make a difference: For you, it is natural to be involved in developing both our working methods and our common work environment - we want your voice to be heard.
• Communication is your strength: You have an ability to convey knowledge in a clear and engaging way, both in Swedish and English.
• You are an unpretentious team player: Your creativity flourishes best when you get to share your knowledge and at the same time learn from the expertise of your colleagues.

We offer you a role where your education or experience is valued, and where you can be part of a culture that values your personality as much as your skills.

Further information

With us, you'll be part of one of the world's leading acoustics, sound design and vibration teams. Here you will not only have knowledgeable colleagues, but an inspiring context where we support each other in both large and small projects - locally and internationally. At AFRY, we make sure that technology works with you, not against you; we invest heavily in the latest software, modern instruments and a good working environment to help you realize your ideas.

We are convinced that our biggest success factor is that you feel good, both at work and outside of work. For us, work-life balance is not just a nice word, but a prerequisite. We want your everyday life to go together - whether it's getting your life together with pick-ups and drop-offs, prioritizing your training or simply getting a calmer morning. Here is the space for you to be a professional at work and at the same time have energy left for what matters most in life.

We believe in the power of doing things together. Through our regular gatherings, networking events, AWs and lectures, we create a community where everyone feels welcome. As an AFRY employee, you also get access to some of the best benefits in the industry and a secure support system for your personal development.

We are actively working to increase representation and inclusion in the industry. We know that a mix of different backgrounds and perspectives makes our team more creative and successful. We offer you a forward-thinking workplace where your voice is heard and you have access to an invaluable knowledge bank.
