LKAB processing Kiruna

About the service:

Now we are looking for another process engineer for the enrichment plants KA1/KA2. We are looking for a committed individual who wants to be part of our growth journey and take responsibility for the enrichment plant KA2 in Kiruna. As a process engineer with us, you will work with the process engineering development work within the NMA section.

Your main task is to ensure that the business meets its production, energy and quality goals in the long term, but also in the short term through daily process technical support in the operational organization.

In your role, you will work with process and product development with the aim of strengthening the business's quality, capacity and results . This means that you initiate and lead or participate in projects and investigations with a process engineering focus.

In the role of Process Engineer KA2, you will collaborate with Process Engineer for KA1. We assume that you are driven, take responsibility and thrive in a role where you have several contact points and drive the development work forward in collaboration with others. To thrive as a process engineer, you must enjoy working in teams and towards common goals. The position is directly subordinate to the Section Manager for KA1/KA2.

You have university qualifications with a focus on mineral technology, chemistry and/or metallurgy. Knowledge of LKAB's ore beneficiation process and competence in automation is advantageous, but not a requirement. We would like to see that you have an interest in and/or experience from a similar business/industry/production. Great emphasis is placed on personal suitability.

• Passed upper secondary education or equivalent is a requirement

Commitment, Innovation and Responsibility are, regardless of the position you are applying for, important watchwords for you in your daily work.
