H2 Green Steel revolutionizes the steel industry with the world’s first green steel plant and is now seeking hundreds of new employees. HR Manager Anette Sundström shared more about the recruitment plans during Friday’s business breakfast in Sävast.
H2 Green Steel (H2GS) är en central del av den gröna samhällsomställningen och bygger just nu världens första storskaliga gröna stålverk. Detta verk beräknas minska koldioxidutsläppen med upp till 95 procent jämfört med traditionell ståltillverkning med masugn. Nu står företaget inför en intensiv fas av personalrekrytering för sin nya anläggning på Boden Industrial Park (BIP).
During the business breakfast at Boden Business Park, Anette Sundström, HR Manager at H2 Green Steel, presented the company’s future plans and recruitment needs.
– We are now entering a phase where we are accelerating the work of building up the organization that will operate the facility, in parallel with the construction of our green steel plant in Boden, she said.
H2GS plans to recruit approximately 600 people over the coming year to staff various parts of the operation. The goal is to have around 1500 employees in place by early 2026. To achieve this, the company has set an ambitious recruitment timeline, with a strong emphasis on creating a diversified and gender-balanced workplace where the gender distribution is 50/50 between women and men of different ages.
The company is looking for a broad range of skills and roles to operate the green steel plant’s platforms. The main job categories include:
- Technicians
- Assemblers
- Mechanic
- Electrician
- Process operators
- Maintenance staff
In addition to these, there is a need for specific expertise in electrolysis, DRI production, casting and hot rolling, as well as in digitalization and machine learning. The company is also seeking general professional skills in areas such as finance, purchasing, and recruitment.
– We will now more actively seek, for example, process operators, technicians, electricians, and mechanics for the operation of various parts of our green steel plant, said Anette Sundström, urging those interested to keep an eye out for upcoming recruitment campaigns.
– We will post more job vacancies going forward and make targeted efforts related to our recruitment of personnel.
