Drive digitalization and technical development in mining operations – in a project management role where systems, operations, and the future meet.
The most important job of the future
We want to lead the transition of our industry towards a sustainable future. Just as we want to change the world, we want to develop everyone who is with us on the journey, personally and professionally. Do you want to help shape the future of the global mining and minerals industry?
Your role
You will be part of the Technical Support section within Mining Technology, consisting of about ten colleagues with expertise in project management, technology, and engineering. The section's mission is to contribute project management and technical resources to projects, assignments, and standardization within Mining Technology and towards the mines, as well as to support the department in documentation, systems, data analytics, and the development and management of the mining planning tool Deswik.
As a project manager with us, you will lead projects related to system integrations, technical change initiatives, and the implementation of new solutions in close dialogue with the operations. You are responsible for driving the projects from planning to delivery, ensuring progress, quality, and coordination among various stakeholders.
The role involves close collaboration with both internal and external parties, and you work systematically with planning, risk management, budgeting, and follow-up. You lead the work according to agile methodologies and facilitate, for example, sprint planning, backlog refinement, retrospectives, and daily stand-ups.
What you bring with you
To thrive in the role, we see that you are structured, communicative, and confident in your project management role. You find it easy to collaborate, build relationships, and create engagement in cross-functional teams. At the same time, you are solution-oriented, self-driven, and enjoy taking responsibility for both the big picture and the details in your work.
- Relevant university degree or equivalent experience.
- Experience in project management within technical or system-related projects.
- Experience in system implementations and integrations.
- Good understanding of agile methodologies, such as Scrum (SAFe is a plus).
