One of the key success factors for Sandvik Group is our brilliant people – the ones who brought us to the market leading position we hold today, and the ambassadors of our brand and culture. Do you want to be in the forefront of representing our business and finding new talents for an industrial leader and global engineering group?

We’re now looking for an interested and purpose-driven Recruitment Specialist to join us in a central position as we’re building a competent organization for the future. Your previous recruitment experience lets you jump right into action and drive the full scope of recruitments in the Nordic region. It’s a great opportunity if you’re passionate about people, spotting needs and searching for unseen possibilities. You also get to work with exciting, global networks in a fast-moving and growing business!

About the job

At the Nordics Recruitment team, we aim to create the very best in-house processes for recruitment and talent management, and we bring both agility and core customer focus as we act on the needs of the business. Joining us as a Recruitment Specialist, you partner up with our hiring managers and take lead in the full recruitment cycles – from initial meeting to final signing of the contract. To support you is our team of recruitment colleagues, communication specialists and coordinators.

Knowing your customers and understanding the business is key, and your work spans across all our positions and brands. Our internal stakeholders are our clients and we’re keen on providing them with new Sandvik enthusiasts. Equally important is to create a strong candidate experience, and you help us to regularly improve the way we hire with a constant lens on diversity and inclusion. Naturally, you also engage in sourcing, running workshops and establishing a future candidate pool, and you help us keep track of trends, development and new recruiting methods.

Managing our recruitments in the Nordic region means you could be located anywhere within this area. However, you do need to spend some time in Sandviken, where most of your team members are located. Some travel is normally included in your job.

About you

We’re looking for someone with broad recruitment experience – either from an in-house recruitment or a recruitment firm, and with responsibility for full lifecycle recruitments. Any previous experiences from global manufacturing industries are beneficial. You have a project-based working approach and the grit to take our recruitments to the next stage by meeting the demands of both the business and the candidate market. Skills in digital meeting solutions, as well as recruitment and assessment tools, are needed, and an assessment tool certificate is a plus. In our international world you manage many various stakeholders, and you need fluency in English, while knowledge of another Nordic language is a merit. A relevant university degree would be great, but in the end it all comes down to your background and attitude.

And talking about attitude, you’re curious, open minded and unbiased, and you always show high integrity. With a structured and customer centric mindset, you take lead in multiple recruitment projects simultaneously, while being both proactive and ahead of the game. Great teamwork and supporting colleagues are keys. You influence and challenge us in building a diverse and inclusive workforce, and you consider all aspects to best support our hiring managers by listening to their needs, establishing professional collaborations and staying true to our Sandvik culture, vision and values.  

A glimpse of our culture

We also give you the freedom to find that perfect mix between work, family life and interests. Visit our stories hub, LinkedIn or Facebook to get to know us further.
