Arbetsbeskrivning

Research shows that women and other underrepresented groups within our industry hesitate to apply unless they tick most boxes of a role description. At Stegra, we are building an impact company with sustainability at its core. We need a diverse, inclusive, and authentic team to rally behind our purpose of decarbonizing hard-to-abate industries, starting with steel.

So, if you are equally passionate about our purpose yet concerned that your experience doesn’t perfectly align with the qualifications stated in the job advert, we strongly encourage you to apply anyway. You may be just the right candidate, either for this role or for another upcoming role in our rapidly growing business.

About us:

Stegra, formerly known as H2 Green Steel, is on a mission to disrupt the global steel industry by producing green steel, with the end goal of bringing down CO2 emissions to zero. By using green hydrogen and fossil-free electricity instead of coal, water and heat will be our primary emissions. By 2030, our ambition is to produce 5 million tonnes of green steel annually in our fully integrated, digitalized, and sustainable plant in Boden, located in northern Sweden - currently in the construction phase. But this is just the beginning – our expertise in green hydrogen will enable us to decarbonize other industries in addition to steel, and we look forward to what’s next in store for us.

We are looking for talented, innovative, and purpose-driven people to join our rapidly growing and diverse team. Our employees get to learn every day, implement the latest technology, and test and put their ideas into practice. Together, we are building an impact company with sustainability at its core – for our people, customers, investors, society, and planet.

External Infrastructure Specialist

We are strengthening our infrastructure team with an External Infrastructure Specialist to help get all the critical infrastructure in place that will be necessary for us to be able to start producing green steel in Boden. The infrastructure includes, among others, power, port infrastructure, national railway infrastructure, railroad connecting the national rail to the site, process water infrastructure bringing water from the Luleå river, drinking and sewage water, fiber, and roads to our Boden site.

The infrastructure projects will be handled by the municipalities and municipality-owned companies of Boden and Luleå in close dialogue with Stegra. The infrastructure is critical for STEGRA operations, but could also be utilized by other users with operations in the relevant areas. In this role, you will play an important role in making sure that the infrastructure needs of Stegra are being met. This will mean creating alignment internally and understanding what our requirements/needs are from a technical perspective, and then building relationships with key stakeholders at municipalities, the county administrative board, government bodies and agencies, and main suppliers. This is a dynamic role with significant growth opportunities and the possibility to take a larger role within the Boden operations or be a part of building the required infrastructure for our future sites globally.

Responsibilities:

• Manage external infrastructure processes from a Stegra perspective.
• Be part of ensuring infrastructure is designed and built according to Stegra's needs through coordination between stakeholders from Operations and Project Delivery teams, both internally and externally.
• Create work plans and monitor progress in dialogue with relevant internal and external stakeholders to ensure alignment with the Stegra Boden Project time plan.
• Monitor and manage project risks in dialogue with stakeholders.
• Provide relevant status updates about the external infrastructure to Stegra stakeholders, i.e., lenders and shareholders.
• Negotiating service contracts with the main service providers of the external infrastructure in accordance with potential regulation and market best practice, in collaboration with other Stegra functions such as finance and legal.
• Contribute to potential public procurement processes managed by external stakeholders.
• Build trustful relationships with key stakeholders in general and at the Boden and Luleå municipalities, the county administrative board, government bodies and agencies, and main suppliers.

Qualifications:

• Academic education/ engineering or business.
• Excellent written and verbal communication in English and Swedish.
• Grit and resilience - Strong stakeholder management skills and ability to build trustful relationships.
• Proven ability to manage projects related to planning, engineering, and/ or construction of infrastructure.
• A big plus is experience in power systems or other complex infrastructure, experience from working with public sector organizations, and infrastructure management capabilities.
