Do you want to work with Sweden's dairy and meat producers, develop service and advice regarding cattle fertility, and be part of Växa Sweden's team?

Then apply for Växa's vocational training to become an Animal Technician in the autumn of 2025, starting on September 29, 2025. The training ends on December 10, 2025.

The training is conducted partly digitally and partly in physical meetings. You will receive all information during a potential interview. Internship is included in the course and is arranged locally by Växa.

The training is conducted by specialists in areas such as fertility, animal health, and breeding, and maintains high quality.

We have available positions in several locations in Sweden:

Östersund, Uppsala, Flen, Laholm, Falkenberg, Falköping, Vänersborg, Ingelstad, Bredaryd, Eksjö, and Vimmerby. Being mobile is a plus.
