You will report to the Group Manager – Mine Planning and be part of a team that values collaboration, innovation, and respect for work-life balance. Living and working in the far north of Sweden, you will experience a vibrant community surrounded by breathtaking nature, all while enjoying a supportive environment that encourages personal and professional growth. As part of the team, you will have the flexibility to balance your career with your personal life, allowing you to thrive both inside and outside of work.
In addition to working for one of the world's leading mining companies, you will enjoy the benefits of Swedish culture, enabling you to appreciate your family, hobbies, and daily work in an unbeatable environment.

Relevant university degree, such as rock engineer, civil engineer, geologist, or similar.
Hands-on working experience in rock mechanics, with a focus on deformation and subsidence control.
