About this role
Are you a structured problem solver who thrives on order and enjoys collaborating with various functions? We are now seeking an Article Planner for the Central Warehouse in the Central Maintenance department in Luleå. Here you will play a crucial role in ensuring the right materials are in the right place – and contribute to developing our work methods and routines.
Joining the SSAB family means embarking on a journey. A journey we believe is crucial for the planet's future and sustainability. Steel has been one of the most important materials for our societal development and will continue to be so in the future. In our homes, in bridges connecting our cities, and in tomorrow's cars. At SSAB, we are proud of our history and leadership in high-strength steel.
