Health and Safety Engineer

Om jobbet

Studies show that women and underrepresented groups often hesitate to apply unless they meet every requirement. At Stegra, we're building an impact-driven, sustainable company - and we need a diverse, inclusive team to make it happen.

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

At Stegra, we're not just building a plant, we're proving that sustainable industry is possible. And to do that, we need people like you.

Join a team where safety comes first. Where we support each other, learn as we go, and make space for everyone to grow and contribute. This is your chance to be part of something big - while being closer to nature and leading a balanced, purposeful life.

What you'll do

We are looking for a Health and Safety Engineer you will work closely with the operational teams on site.

You will act as the link between Health & Safety and operations, supporting safe, compliant, and effective ways of working across the organization.

As we are building a cross-functional Health & Safety team, supporting all areas at our Boden site. This is a unique opportunity to be part of shaping how safety is embedded into a completely new, modern industrial setup from the ground up.

Working at Stegra could mean operating in an environment with high temperatures, hazardous gases (such as hydrogen and carbon monoxide), and ATEX-classified areas. Managing these risks is critical - and this is where you and your colleagues come in.

You will play a key role in ensuring that safety is not just a requirement, but a natural part of how we operate every day.

• Act as the Health & Safety representative within the operating unit
• Support implementation and continuous improvement of the Site Management System
• Drive improvements in workplace safety and ways of working
• Ensure compliance with safety regulations, standards, and internal requirements
• Support and strengthen Stegra's behavior-based safety approach
• Partner with the line organization to enable ownership of health and safety responsibilities
• Support incident investigations, follow-up actions, and reporting to relevant authorities
• Contribute to hazard identification, risk assessments, and implementation of control measures

What you'll bring

You're someone who puts safety first in every situation. You understand that strong safety performance comes from a combination of structure, awareness, and everyday behaviors.

You're pragmatic and solution-oriented, with the ability to turn requirements into practical actions that work in real operations. At the same time, you collaborate easily with others and build trust across teams.

Specific to this role, we would like to see that you can tick off a fair amount of the boxes below:

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Engineering, Occupational Health & Safety, or related field
• Experience working in an industrial or manufacturing environment (e.g. chemical, energy, oil & gas, hydrogen)
• Experience with ATEX environments, including classification, equipment, and compliance
• Knowledge of ISO 45001, Swedish legislation, EU directives, and industry standards
• Experience with risk assessments, incident investigations, and safety processes
• Additional relevant training within areas such as chemical hazards or occupational hygiene is a plus

For you who have an expert position today it would be advantageous if you have:

• Knowledge of hazardous process gases, including risk assessment and safe handling
• Good understanding of dust explosion risks and prevention measures

Benefits at Stegra

At Stegra, you'll join a company where your work has real impact on the climate, the industry, and future generations. We're building a culture rooted in safety, trust, and inclusion, where people feel supported to grow and thrive.

You'll receive fair, competitive compensation aligned with collective agreements, along with benefits like up to 30 days of paid vacation, occupational pension, parental benefits, and insurance. If you need support with relocation or immigration, our relocation department will help guide you through the process, whether it's permits, housing or other practical matters. You can also enjoy perks like subsidized gym memberships and bike leases, plus the everyday benefits of life closer to nature.

This is Stegra

Stegra is on a mission to change the global steel industry by producing green hydrogen, iron, and steel - with the goal of eliminating CO₂ emissions. Instead of coal, we use green hydrogen and fossil-free electricity, meaning our primary emissions will be water and heat.

But this is just the beginning. Our expertise in green hydrogen will enable us to decarbonize industries beyond steel, paving the way for a cleaner future.
