Location: Boden
Be part of shaping the future of the steel industry
We are seeking dedicated refractory installers who want to work in a high-tech, sustainable maintenance and production environment. At Stegra, you will join a modern steel plant where safety, innovation, and quality are top priorities. Take the opportunity to grow and develop with us in a forward-looking industrial setting.

About The Role
At Stegra, we are not just building a plant – we are proving that sustainable industry is possible. And to succeed, we need people like you.

As a member of our refractory team, you will be at the forefront of next-generation steelmaking technology. You will work with the maintenance of the Electric Arc Furnace (EAF), monolithic steel ladles, tundishes, and RH vacuum treatment.

In this role, you will play a key part in ensuring that production always has refractory components in optimal condition – safely and fully compliant with quality and environmental standards. You will closely monitor processes, identify deviations, and address them quickly.

This is a technically challenging and responsible position, where your focus will be on maintaining a smooth production flow while upholding the highest safety standards. You will work with advanced systems and precision equipment alongside skilled colleagues in a dynamic and fast-paced environment.

If you enjoy problem-solving, cutting-edge technology, and contributing to a more sustainable steel industry, this role offers a unique opportunity to make a real impact.

Your Responsibilities

  • Install refractory materials in the EAF, steel ladles, tundishes, and RH.
  • Conduct inspections and perform repairs as needed (e.g., bricklaying, gunning).
  • Troubleshoot issues related to refractory installations.
  • Verify, document, and record operational data.
  • Actively contribute to a safe work environment by participating in the development and maintenance of process control and safety routines.
  • Lead by example in prioritizing safety and support less experienced colleagues to ensure a safe and efficient workplace.
  • Make decisions and proactively identify solutions.

Your Profile

  • High school diploma or equivalent.
  • Experience in bricklaying, casting, or tiling is an advantage.
  • Experience developing work methods or participating in development projects is beneficial.
  • Additional certificates (e.g., forklift, crane operator license) are a plus.
  • Good knowledge of English; basic Swedish is an advantage.
  • Driver's license (B).
  • We place great value on your personality – especially your willingness to learn and how you collaborate with colleagues and leadership.

We Offer
If you are passionate about making a real difference and contributing to a more sustainable future, Stegra offers a unique opportunity to join a committed and ambitious team. Here, you can help shape the future of steel production while developing your career in a company that values inclusion, collaboration, and personal growth. We believe our success begins with our people – and together, we are building a greener tomorrow.

  • A permanent position in one of Sweden's most exciting industrial projects.
  • Competitive salary and benefits according to the collective agreement.
  • 25 vacation days per year in accordance with Swedish labor law.
  • Full relocation support, including assistance with housing, travel arrangements, and compensation.
  • Visa sponsorship where applicable.
  • Modern, purpose-built facilities in Boden with a focus on safety, sustainability, and innovation.
  • A supportive and inclusive work environment where everyone is encouraged to grow and develop.

Working in Boden
Our facility in Boden is located in the heart of a growing green industrial hub in northern Sweden. This is where we are building one of the world's most modern and sustainable steel plants. With just a 10-minute commute from the city center, you are close to both cutting-edge technology and everyday conveniences.

Your Application
Studies show that women and underrepresented groups often hesitate to apply unless they meet every requirement. At Stegra, we are building a sustainable company driven by impact – and we need a diverse, inclusive team to succeed.

If you share our passion but don't meet every qualification, we still encourage you to apply. You might be the perfect fit for this role – or for another role as we continue to grow.

About Stegra
Stegra aims to transform the global steel industry by producing green hydrogen, iron, and steel – with the ambition to eliminate CO₂ emissions. Instead of coal, we use green hydrogen and fossil-free electricity, meaning our primary emissions are water and heat.

By 2030, we aim to produce 5 million tonnes of green steel annually in our fully integrated, digitalized, and sustainable facility in Boden, which is currently under construction. But this is just the beginning. Our expertise in green hydrogen will make it possible to decarbonize industries far beyond steel, paving the way for a cleaner future.
