Practical Work in Construction and Modular Production at Adapteo

This is your chance to work practically with construction and modular production, be part of an exciting growth journey, and develop in a role where every day is varied and educational. We are looking for someone who wants to be part of Adapteo's team, where your contribution makes a difference in production, for the environment, and in society. At Adapteo, you will be part of a close-knit and unpretentious group where everyone helps each other and has fun together. We look forward to your application!

ABOUT THE POSITION

Adapteo is the leading provider of flexible, modular, and sustainable building solutions in the Nordics, from offices and schools to housing and healthcare facilities. The company builds adaptable buildings that can be scaled up, scaled down, moved, or reused. Adapteo uses a circular business model where the lifespan of the modules is extended, resources are used efficiently, and the carbon footprint is minimized, with a focus on reuse, resource efficiency, and fossil-free transportation.

Adapteo is currently building a new state-of-the-art facility in Uppsala, an investment that brings together workshop, warehouse, office, and showroom under one roof and will be an important part of the company's future production and growth. As a modular repair technician at Adapteo, you will have a unique role where you help build, repair, and improve modular solutions from start to finished product. You will begin with thorough training and start with demolition, where you bring in modules, remove what needs to be taken away, and prepare them for production. Depending on the project, experience, and your strengths, you will then have the opportunity to specialize in a station or work area, such as caulking, painting, flooring, installation of plumbing and radiators, roof and panel work, and final preparations for transport. This way, you learn step by step and grow into the part of production that suits you best.

A typical day starts with the team gathering to go through the day's plan together with colleagues and supervisors. During the day, you will work closely with your colleagues, learn new tasks, share ideas, and contribute to improvements in the workflow. The role is practical, varied, and developmental; you continuously build your skills and take responsibility. Initially, the work will take place at Adapteo's hub in Enköping, but in the long run, everything will move to the new state-of-the-art facility in Uppsala, where you will be part of an exciting growth journey.

This is a consultancy assignment, meaning you will be employed by Academic Work and work as a consultant at Adapteo. The assignment will be full-time and long-term. There are very good chances for permanent employment, provided that all parties are satisfied with the collaboration.

  • The chance to come up with ideas and suggestions for improvement and truly influence workflows and processes

  • Long-term opportunities to develop and take on more responsibility over time
