About this role
Do you want to be part of Team Thomas®? Do you want to be part of a dedicated team that has fun at work? With us, you'll become an important cog in a team that works to manufacture and deliver high-quality concrete and excellent service to our customers. We have been entrusted to deliver to many customers in our local area and are therefore expanding our staff in Karlskoga.
Life at a Concrete Factory...
The role is responsible, challenging, and highly varied, with no two days being the same.
Mixing concrete is a craft where you develop an attractive feel for the right quality over time. If you don't already know how, we'll teach you.
The work includes a lot of customer contact, sampling, quality and work environment issues, factory maintenance and cleaning, operating wheel loaders, and much more. You'll also get the chance to meet customers and visit construction sites where you can see where the concrete ends up.
In Karlskoga, we normally have two people operating the factory, along with colleagues who work in customer service, concrete truck drivers, and pump operators. We primarily work daytime, 6:30 AM–3:30 PM, but times can vary depending on customer projects and concrete deliveries. Sometimes we work afternoons and evenings, which we plan together as a team. We need to be flexible, but also offer flexibility when life requires it – as long as we ensure good customer service.
Karlskoga is one of eight factories in the area that collaborate closely to provide the best possible customer service. This means you will occasionally work at nearby factories in the area, especially in Karlstad, with which we have an extra close collaboration. Sometimes there may be trips to customer projects for sampling.
Who are you?
• You have a good ability to contribute to good cooperation and service both internally and in external contacts.
• Our days are changeable, so interest and ability to see opportunities and work with problem-solving are important.
• Qualities such as commitment, quality awareness, flexibility, and precision are crucial to delivering a good product and service.
• Caring for and maintaining our factory is part of the assignment, so it's good if you are practically oriented and like the idea of contributing to our maintenance work.
• Experience in construction, other industry, or even concrete manufacturing is meritorious, but we are primarily looking for our next team player. We are good at concrete manufacturing and teaching it!
We strive for increased gender equality and diversity in our organization. Therefore, we especially welcome female applicants, while all qualified candidates are encouraged to apply.
