Vacant job

At Jämtkraft, you will contribute to a secure and sustainable energy supply. We are now looking for a Maintenance Technician for our heat distribution network – an important role where you, together with colleagues, are responsible for ensuring that the district heating network operates stably and reliably in our owner municipalities.

About the job

In this role, you will plan, execute, and follow up on maintenance efforts to ensure long-term and efficient operation of the pipeline network. The tasks are varied and include planned inspections of the pipeline network, alarms, valves, and facilities, as well as troubleshooting and locating potential leaks using technical systems. You will also assist in connecting new customers to the network and coordinate maintenance work such as valve replacements and pipeline repairs.

An important part of the role is leading and following up on contractors' work, such as excavation and restoration. You are responsible for ensuring that underground work is performed safely, correctly, and in accordance with current occupational health and safety requirements. Documentation of changes and executed measures in our systems is also part of the daily work.

Who are you?

We are looking for you who have a high school education in technology, energy, plumbing, electrical, or another relevant area. If you have post-secondary education or experience in maintenance work within areas such as water and wastewater, energy, or similar operations, we view this positively.

To succeed in the role, you need to have a good understanding of heating systems and pipelines, be able to read and interpret drawings and maps, and have knowledge of flows and pressure in technical systems. You express yourself well in Swedish, both orally and in writing, and computer literacy is a plus.

A B-driver's license is a prerequisite for the position as travel is involved in the work. If you also have a BE or C1 driver's license, it is appreciated and can be an advantage in the role.

As a person, you are meticulous, structured, and solution-oriented. You enjoy working both independently and with others, and you have the ability to handle unexpected situations in a calm and efficient manner. We also believe that you are curious and want to develop within energy and sustainability.

Jämtkraft operates in a socially important sector, which means that the employment may be placed in a security classification.

On-call duties may be included in the position.

At Jämtkraft, you are important. We think long-term, we invest in you, and we want you to thrive and help us move forward. Therefore, you do not need to know everything when you start. We will equip you with the competence you lack. Just come as you are, because this is where you want to be!
