Assignment Description

The Engineering Manager CA3 will lead engineering delivery for critical building services and installations within a major transformation program for fossil-free steel production. This role drives coordinated engineering efforts across HVAC, VVS, potable water, BMS integration and sprinkler systems to ensure safe, cost-effective, and timely delivery of the Cold Mill Complex in Luleå.

Responsibilities

• Lead and manage engineering activities for large-scale brownfield and greenfield CAPEX projects, with primary focus on building services (ventilation, heating/VVS, potable water) and BMS/HVAC integration.

• Own interface coordination and constructability reviews (gransdragning) to identify clashes, reduce rework, and optimize plant layouts.

• Ensure engineering deliverables meet safety, quality, regulatory, and project requirements throughout design, procurement and construction phases.

• Coordinate interdisciplinary projekteringsledning across internal teams, external consultants, equipment suppliers and construction subcontractors.

• Challenge design-to-cost proposals, support procurement alignment, and track engineering cost forecasts and performance.

• Govern and support the Engineering Management Office to improve engineering support services, workflows and partner performance.

• Drive technical decisions on HVAC, sprinkler, BMS integration and plant equipment layouts with a focus on operational reliability and start-up readiness.

• Follow up engineering schedules and ensure timely delivery of drawings, specifications and certifications required for construction and commissioning.

• Mentor and lead engineering team members, promoting collaboration, safety-first culture and continuous improvement.

Profile

• Experienced engineering leader with a pragmatic, hands-on approach and strong communication skills in both English and Swedish.

• Strategic thinker who coordinates complex interfaces while keeping safety, cost and constructability central to decisions.

• Collaborative and inclusive manager who thrives in multicultural project environments and supports growth of team members.

• Result-oriented project leader who can balance governance, technical depth and partner management to meet tight schedules.

Required and Nice-to-Have Skills & Experience

Required:

• Minimum 10 years industry experience, including at least 5 years of hands-on engineering leadership; minimum 5 years working in Sweden.

• Proven track record managing large industrial projects (steel, pulp & paper, refinery, oil & gas or similar) with responsibility for engineering delivery.

• Deep technical knowledge of HVAC systems, VVS, potable water systems, sprinkler systems and BMS/HVAC integration applicable to Nordic conditions and standards.

• Strong experience in interface coordination, constructability reviews and aligning technical requirements with project objectives.

• Fluency in English and Swedish, with excellent written and verbal communication skills.

• Demonstrated ability to challenge forecasts, control engineering costs and drive on-time delivery from engineering partners.

Nice to have:

• Project management certification (e.g., PMP, IPMA) or equivalent training.

• Civil engineering experience or education related to heavy industry plant projects.

• Experience with brownfield mill upgrades and start-up coordination in heavy process industries.

• Familiarity with Swedish and European codes and standards for building services and industrial installations.
