Are you the one?

If you’re interested in an exciting position in hydraulics, we have the job for you! As a maintenance technician in the sheet metal unit, you’ll work alongside dedicated colleagues, and your mission will be to perform preventive maintenance to ensure stable production. Location: Oxelösund.

Becoming part of the SSAB family means embarking on a journey. A journey we believe is crucial for the planet’s future and sustainability. Steel has been one of the most important materials for the development of our society and will continue to be so in the future—in our homes, in the bridges that connect our cities, and in the cars of tomorrow. At SSAB, we’re proud of our history and our leadership in high-strength steel. At the same time, we’re aware that steel production is one of the industries that emits the most greenhouse gases in the world. That has to change. We have therefore developed the world’s first fossil-free steel production process and are committed to becoming largely fossil-free. As part of SSAB, you’ll play a key role in achieving this goal and thereby contribute to a green transition of the entire steel industry.

As a technician, you’ll work closely with production, performing preventive maintenance on hydraulic systems at our facilities. You will analyze malfunctions and breakdowns with the aim of eliminating them to ensure stable production. Planning and preparing hydraulic-related tasks is also part of the role, as is managing spare parts.

You will work both independently and alongside your colleagues. We always put safety first, and you will perform your work in accordance with SSAB’s safety, health, and environmental procedures and processes. The group encompasses the professional fields of hydraulics, media, and tribology, and you will help shape work methods and development.

We offer an exciting and challenging role where you’ll have the opportunity to make an impact and a difference. In addition, there are excellent opportunities for both personal and professional development.
