Application due date: 4/7/2025 23:59:59 UTC

Are you passionate about leading transformative projects and eager to shape the future of sustainable steel production? SSAB is looking for an ambitious Cost Control Engineer to join us on our exciting journey. At SSAB, we are committed to sustainability and aim to eliminate all CO2 emissions by 2030. This position is based in Luleå, Sweden.

Becoming part of the SSAB family means joining a journey that we believe is essential for the sustainability of this planet. Steel has been one of the most important materials for developing our society, and it will continue to be so. At SSAB, we are proud of our history and leadership in high-strength steel. However, we are also aware that the production of steel is one of the largest emitters of greenhouse gases in the world. That has to change. That is why we have developed the world's first fossil-free steel production and have committed to becoming largely fossil-free by around 2030. As part of SSAB, you will be instrumental in realizing this goal and push for the green transformation of the whole steel industry.
