About Veidekke

Veidekke is not an ordinary construction company. While we build everything from bridges and housing to roads and tunnels, it is our view of people that sets us apart. Veidekke is an idea of how people can work together to achieve good results. We believe in inclusive forces and collective intelligence – that different skills and perspectives lead to better outcomes. Therefore, diversity is an asset. We conduct extensive gender and diversity work to create an even more inclusive work environment and culture that values people's differences. We build with heart. Veidekke is Scandinavia's fourth largest construction and civil engineering company with a total turnover of approximately 43 billion NOK. In Sweden, we have about 2,200 employees and a turnover of approximately 15.1 billion NOK (2023).

Do you want to be part of building something new and exciting? We are now looking for you in Jönköping and surrounding areas who have experience in infrastructure projects focused on road and land. Other suitable locations may include Växjö, Värnamo, Gislaved or nearby.

Are you an engaged leader who would enjoy building a strong, cohesive infrastructure team in Småland and Östergötland together? We are looking for a site manager who, with experience and an inclusive working style, can create engagement and lead our projects to success. Veidekke has a broad project spectrum and can undertake everything from infrastructure projects in road, railway, water and sewage, power and energy to treatment plants and industry.

If you are ready for a new challenge in a slightly different company where the employee is central, Veidekke is the right company for you. Veidekke is built on solid roots and traditions that are grounded in a constant focus on people with involvement, co-ownership, and openness.

“Veidekke is an idea of how people best work together to achieve good results” Arne Halland (CEO 1962-1989)

It is a conviction that if we as a company are to succeed, employees, customers, and suppliers at all levels must be involved. At Veidekke, involvement & openness is the path to success.
