Shunter Driver - Green Cargo is looking for you!

Are you interested in a physical outdoor job in a constantly changing railway environment where safety is a top priority? We are now looking for someone who wants to take the opportunity to undergo paid training and work as a shunter driver at Green Cargo in Tomteboda! As an employee with us, you will contribute to our ambition to help more customers transport goods in an environmentally friendly and sustainable way.

Your responsibilities

At the marshalling yard, we work with shunting and marshalling of freight wagons. This means that wagons arrive in trains from all over the country and are divided and put together to form new trains to reach our important customers and terminals. The role of a shunter driver is to plan and shunt wagons to the right trains and customers. In addition to the shunting itself, functional checks of the wagons are included before they depart for new destinations. A common goal is to ensure that the trains reach customers on time and in a safe manner. This role requires a high level of commitment from everyone working at the marshalling yard and suits those who enjoy physically demanding tasks.

Meet some of our employees at the marshalling yard.

Things to know

The position is a permanent full-time position initiated by a 6-month probationary period, with a planned start in week 5. Your employment begins with a paid basic training of approximately 16-18 weeks that prepares you for the job. The training includes theory, practice, ongoing knowledge tests, and concludes with an examination. Approximately half of the training time is spent in another location, and the remaining time is spent in your hometown. Green Cargo covers travel and accommodation for the weeks you have training in another location.
