Do you want a meaningful job where you can make a real difference for both society and the energy transition? With us, you are part of a socially critical operation with exciting projects, cutting-edge technology, and colleagues who value each other.
We are now looking for several experienced Station Technicians who want to help build the maintenance operations of the future!
We are facing one of Vattenfall Eldistribution's largest investments ever – a historic concentration of efforts to build stronger, more resilient, and entirely in-house capability in maintenance, troubleshooting, and repair. At a time when the world is placing ever higher demands on robustness and durability, we are taking decisive steps to ensure a power grid that can handle difficult conditions and delivers when it matters most.
Responsibilities and Tasks
As a Station Technician, you play a central role in ensuring that our electrical installations from 0.4 to 400 kV are safe, accessible, and equipped for future energy needs. In this role, you get varied and practical fieldwork, where you combine advanced technical problem-solving with careful digital documentation. Together with colleagues in operations, maintenance, and projects, you contribute to a power grid with high operational reliability and quality, where your technical expertise makes a real difference in everyday operations, for both our installations and society.
Your main tasks include:
Performing service, operations, maintenance, construction, and troubleshooting in stations and electrical installations
Conducting rounds, inspections, and checks according to established maintenance programs and reporting deviations
Working according to ESA, EBR, and applicable safety procedures and participating in risk assessments and work preparations
