About this role
Smurfit Westrock Piteå is seeking a Maintenance Technician!
Do you have a technical interest with a focus on mechanical work and enjoy working collaboratively with others? Are you communicative and like to think critically? Then the role of Maintenance Technician might be for you!
About the Position
This is a social role for those who enjoy problem-solving.
The tasks are varied, including administratively planning and preparing maintenance activities, as well as working on improvement projects, investigations, and follow-ups. You will provide technical support during maintenance work and act as a contact person for companies and suppliers. In your daily work, you will collaborate with many other professional roles and be part of a team with the Personnel Manager and other Maintenance Technicians in your department. You will also substitute for the Personnel Manager in their absence if needed.
Skills and Previous Experience
You have a high school diploma and preferably additional training in a relevant field or other knowledge that we consider equivalent. You have previous work experience in mechanical work. To facilitate good knowledge exchange, documentation is an important part of the job, so you are computer literate and proficient in both Swedish and English, both spoken and written.
To thrive in this role, we see that you are engaged by continuous improvements. Therefore, you initiate the development of technology and working methods. You enjoy working with administrative tasks. Since you will be planning and preparing interventions in the area, you are skilled at structuring and driving your commitments to completion. As the work largely involves collaboration with colleagues and contractors, you are motivated to maintain a high level of service and appreciate the value of others' differences, experiences, and competencies. Working through a safe approach is a given for you.
