Hammar develops, manufactures, and sells side loaders – a unique and world-leading solution for handling and transporting shipping containers. From our headquarters and factory in Olsfors, between Borås and Göteborg, we drive innovation that reaches customers in more than 125 countries.
We are market leaders globally, but we don't stop there. Hammar is on a clear growth trajectory with ambitious plans ahead. We see strong potential to reach new customers, expand to more markets, and continue developing our products at the absolute forefront. With the entire value chain gathered in Olsfors, from development and design to production, we have both the pace and capability to quickly turn ideas into competitive solutions.

Responsibilities
As a service technician, you work with service, troubleshooting, repair, and maintenance of Hammar's products. The work is performed mainly in the workshop in Olsfors where you work with both new and used machines as well as customer machines coming in for service and repair.
The position can be tailored based on your experience and skills. For certain roles, field service at the customer's site is also included, and for those with prior experience, there is an opportunity to take greater responsibility by supporting the Service Manager with planning and coordination.
Examples of work tasks:
• Service, maintenance, and repair of Hammar side loaders.
• Troubleshooting in hydraulics, mechanics, pneumatics, and electrical systems.
• Modifications, upgrades, and customer customizations.
• Handling of warranty, complaint, and service matters.
• Delivery inspections and functional testing.
• Technical support to customers and colleagues.
• Documentation of completed work.
Depending on the position, the role may also include:
• Field service and emergency service calls at customer sites.
• Customer visits with the company's service vehicle.
• Planning and prioritization of workshop tasks.
• Support to the Service Manager in daily operations.
• Temporarily expanded responsibility during peak periods or absences.
Employment Type: Permanent position (with 6-month probationary period)
Work Hours: Daytime, full-time (100%)
Start Date: By agreement
Work Location: Olsfors, just outside Borås.
Background and Personal Qualities
We are looking for someone with experience in service, maintenance, or repair of construction machinery, heavy vehicles, agricultural machinery, or other similar equipment.
We would like you to have:
• Knowledge of hydraulics, mechanics, and electrical systems.
• Ability to read and understand technical drawings.
• Good computer skills.
• B driving license.
• Good knowledge of Swedish and English, both spoken and written.
A forklift license is a merit, as is experience with field service, welding, machine building, technical support, and customer contact.
As a person, you are responsible, solution-oriented, and have a strong technical interest. You work independently when needed but also enjoy collaborating with colleagues.
