Do you want to contribute to shaping SSAB’s future and help us transform the global steel industry?

Then you could be the one we are looking for to join our dynamic global HR Development team.

Becoming part of the SSAB family means joining a journey.

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 by around 2030.
