Are you an experienced recruiter ready to take your expertise to the next level? Join us in shaping the future of Talent Acquisition while staying close to the action. This is your chance to be part of a dynamic environment where collaboration, dedication, and innovation drives success. In spring 2026, we will launch Oracle and introduce global processes and ways of working - making this an exciting time to contribute and influence our journey forward.

Becoming part of the SSAB family means joining a journey. 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. In the roofs over our heads, in the bridges connecting our cities and in the cars of tomorrow. At SSAB we are proud of our history and leadership in high-strength steel. But 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 has committed to becoming largely fossil-free. As part of SSAB you will be instrumental in realizing this goal and push for the green transformation of the whole steel industry.
