Coop Norrbotten is one of Norrbotten's largest employers with many challenging jobs. We are on an exciting journey of change to be able to meet the food customers of the future as well and as naturally in our physical stores as on Coop.se.

The change that is underway involves extra many challenges, but also opportunities. And you are never alone. If there is anything we are particularly proud of, it is our employees. By having succeeded in recruiting many competent employees, we are working together towards the future.

Coop is unique! It's easy to think that all grocery stores are the same. The same products on the shelves, the same shopping carts and the checkout at the exit. But Coop is different because we are owned by our 3.5 million members. That's what makes us unique. It also gives us extra responsibility, but also extra opportunities.

Coop is one of Sweden's largest employers and we are driven by the task of giving everyone access to good food. We are on an exciting journey of change towards being the force for good food in Sweden. We want to simplify everyday life and give everyone access to good ingredients - something that is good for body, soul and our environment.

Coop has long lived at the forefront and realized the importance of ecological thinking. Our fish is certified, our chickens are released and our own brand Änglamark has been named Sweden's Greenest Brand - but our journey doesn't end there.

Together with our employees, we work every day with our customers to continue to be the best in sustainable development and now we are investing even more in spreading the joy of food and more love for good ingredients.

Together we can and will become the good force in food Sweden!

We value the qualities that an even age and gender distribution as well as ethnic and cultural diversity bring to the business.
