Do you want to work practically with a traditional craft where precision, problem-solving, and feel for materials are at the center? Rosengren & Nilsson is now seeking an art caster for our production in Malmö.
About Us
Rosengren & Nilsson Group was founded in 2021 through the merger of two well-established metal foundries: Rosengrens Metallgjuteri (founded 1909) and Vetlanda Gjuteri (founded 2001). Together we combine more than a century of craftsmanship tradition with modern expertise in metal casting.
At our art foundry in Vintrie, just outside Malmö, we work with everything from artists and architects to municipalities, churches, and industrial companies. Our products include artworks, bronze and aluminum grave markers, 3D models, and 3D-engraved crystal glass. Each project is unique – and we see every product as a work of art.
About the Position
As an art caster with us, you become part of a knowledgeable and dedicated production team. We work primarily with casting and processing of bronze and aluminum. Projects vary in both size and complexity, and therefore the work requires both craftsmanship skills and the ability to find practical solutions.
You will participate in several stages of the manufacturing process – from preparation and molding to casting, finishing, and the final product. Depending on your previous experience, we will adapt the tasks and introduction accordingly.
Your tasks may include
Manufacturing sand molds based on models and templates
Preparations for casting
Melting and casting bronze and aluminum
Chasing and cleaning cast objects
Cutting, grinding, blasting, and other finishing work
Quality and dimensional control during the manufacturing process
Maintenance of tools, machines, and the shared work environment
Collaboration with colleagues to solve technical and practical challenges
Who Are We Looking For?
We are looking for someone who is practical, thorough, and enjoys working with your hands. You take responsibility for your work and understand the importance of quality, safety, and collaboration.
Previous experience in foundry work, sand molding, metal processing, or similar craft and industrial production is a merit. The most important thing, however, is that you have the right attitude, a genuine interest in the craft, and a willingness to learn.
We believe you will thrive in the role if you:
Have good practical and technical understanding
Are thorough and quality-conscious
Can work both independently and with others
Are solution-oriented and not afraid to take initiative
Enjoy physical work in a workshop environment
Have a clear focus on safety
Speak Swedish or English at work
A forklift license, overhead crane certification, and experience reading drawings are merits but not requirements.
What We Offer
With us, you get the opportunity to work with a tradition-rich and varied craft where each project has its own conditions. You become part of a cohesive team with great professional expertise and get the opportunity to develop within the various aspects of art casting.
We offer a workplace with short decision-making paths, great personal responsibility, and products that often find a visible and lasting place in public environments.
