Talent Acquisition & Employer Branding Specialist for Group HR
"Attracting, developing and retaining the right expertise is one of our most important future priorities. For me, this role is about creating opportunities, both for people and for the business. We want to build long-term relationships, create a strong candidate and employee experience and at the same time dare to challenge our ways of working to continue developing the Ovako of the future." – Anna Thorslund, Chief People Officer (CPO), Ovako Group
At Ovako, we know that future competitiveness is built on people. That's why we work long-term to attract, develop and retain the right expertise. We are now looking for a Talent Acquisition & Employer Branding Specialist for Group HR based in Stockholm, a role for you who enjoys combining recruitment, project management and development in an international industrial environment.
You will work closely with our group functions and Global Sales, while supporting our Business Units in recruitment and other initiatives related to talent supply. The role offers great freedom and many points of contact, but also clear responsibility to drive progress and turn ideas into concrete results.
A role where development meets execution
Recruitment is an important part of the mission, but the role is about much more than filling positions. You will drive projects, develop processes and help ensure that Ovako continues to be a modern and attractive employer.
We see great opportunities in digitalization, AI and new ways of working. Therefore, we are looking for someone who is curious about how technology and automation can create better candidate experiences, more efficient processes and smarter ways of working. You are driven to develop, simplify and create real value, while helping us ensure that we remain relevant for the employees of the future.
An important part of the role is also about building relationships long before a recruitment need arises. You will represent Ovako at fairs and events, collaborate with universities and colleges and work on various initiatives to create early contact with future engineers, specialists and leaders.
"We are looking for someone who likes to make things happen. Someone who combines structure and implementation power with curiosity and a genuine interest in people. For me, it's about constantly challenging ourselves, seizing new opportunities and ensuring that we continue to develop in line with the world around us and the people we want to attract," Anna concludes.
