Do you want a varied and exciting job in a laboratory environment? Do you enjoy working with people and constantly striving to develop the business together? Then this could be the role for you.

SSAB is facing a historic shift in steel manufacturing in connection with the transition to fossil-free production. This creates new opportunities and challenges for us at the laboratory in Luleå. To prepare for the future, we need to strengthen the organization and are therefore looking for a Section Manager for Wet Chemistry and Raw Materials.

In our homes, in bridges connecting our cities and in the cars of tomorrow. At SSAB, we are proud of our history and our leadership in high strength steel. At the same time, we are aware that steel production is one of the industries that emits the most greenhouse gases in the world. This must change. We have therefore developed the world's first fossil-free process for steel production and around 2030 we will be largely fossil-free.
