We have established a strong project operation, we are growing rapidly, and we continue to build on our highly regarded consulting business. Now we want to take the next step – together with you.

Here, you get the chance to be part of a team driving development forward within industrial automation. We work on exciting projects, both large and small, and you have the opportunity to influence the direction just as much as you influence the solution itself.

• Programming and configuration of control systems to create efficient and smart solutions
• Retrofits and modernizations of existing facilities where you combine analysis, problem-solving, and technology
• New turnkey projects, where you take responsibility from start to finished delivery

In the long term, we would like to see you develop into a more leading and coaching role, where you act as a mentor for our junior engineers and contribute to the team's competence development. The role is shaped here based on both our customers' needs and your own strengths and drivers.

Who Thrives With Us?

You who enjoy variety, cutting-edge technology, and finding smart solutions together with others. You are motivated by responsibility, want to influence, and enjoy developing. At AFRY, you get both freedom and trust – and a team that supports you all the way.
