Your team

The position is located within the District Heating Operations unit. Our focus is the optimal operation of our plants for electricity and heat production. We play a key role in Göteborg Energi's important mission – to supply the people of Gothenburg with the energy they need, 24/7, all year round.

The job as a plant technician offers stimulating, varied, and responsible tasks. You will work in a focused team with high competence. As a plant technician, you will have the opportunity to develop your skills while working on something that is extremely important for everyone living and working in Gothenburg.

The unit is led by Björn Runesvall. Björn – what is the best thing about the job besides the developmental tasks?

– It is the work climate in the group. We are a team where we dare to challenge ourselves, have high trust, and make each other better.
