Experienced Hydrometallurgist to the R&D department at Rönnskärsverken
Our department for Process- and Product-development (R&D) at Rönnskärsverken in Skellefteå needs reinforcement by an experienced Hydrometallurgist.
Work tasks
As an experienced Hydrometallurgist in the R&D department, you will develop and improve our hydrometallurgical processes towards our target - to be the most environmentally friendly and respected metal producer in the world. There is also an increased need to find new solutions for the future as our raw materials are becoming more challenging. The work also includes supporting the operations and project implementations.
Your work will heavily influence how our processes will be changed and improved for the future.
This particular position has an emphasis on our Hydrometallurgical processes, e.g. our effluent treatment plant and our new leaching plant. We also foresee an increased use of hydromet processes to meet our environmental goals as well as our goals within circular economy; recycling, separation of value metals from waste streams and productification of new metals/substances.
You plan and execute complex investigations and test campaigns independently and stay updated in your field of expertise. You work either more independently or as a member of a project team. The work is both theoretical and practical.
You will be in frequent consultation with your colleagues at the R&D department as well as with the operational staff at the various plants and academia.
The work place is Rönnskärsverken in Skellefteå. Travelling will occur, but are of shorter duration. You will be reporting to the section manager and occasionally also to project managers.
Education and qualifications
You are an engineer with a relevant education in hydrometallurgy.
You have an ability to understand complex problems and plan your work. You work with an analytical approach and have patience as many of our improvement projects are of longer duration (years). Good communication skills in both speech and writing are needed, as complex problems and solutions must be explained.
To be considered you must have:
- Graduation from University with an exam within Chemistry/Metallurgy and with an interest for hydrometallurgical/wet chemistry applications
- Experience from similar work
- A good ability to document your work into various reports
- A good ability to communicate orally and in writing in English and in a number of years also in the Swedish language
We prefer that you also have:
- Experience from heavy process industry
- Experience from R&D work
- A Swedish drivers license, class B
We offer, to the correct person, varying work tasks in an extensive and exciting work area.
We take for granted that you share our common values; Care, Courage and Responsibility
