You will work with underground mapping, core logging, sampling, mapping/logging of geotechnical parameters, structural geology, and recording of measurement data. Due to safety reasons, basic knowledge of the Swedish language is a requirement. Work is carried out on a shift basis.

As an Exploration Geologist, you will be working on the exploration of future iron ore deposits in one of our underground mines/open pits and their surrounding areas in Malmberget/Gällivare, Kiruna, or Svappavaara.

We offer an interesting workplace with opportunities for development and challenging duties.
Our total number of job openings is approximately seven in Kiruna, seven in Malmberget/Gällivare, and four in Svappavaara.

If you have any preferences in location and/or position, please state that in your application as well.
Skills and Competencies
The positions require a minimum of 2-3 years of college or university studies in the field of Geology.
As a person, you should be responsible and driven, but also perceptive and flexible. The positions include a lot of collaboration with others, so good communication skills are essential.
For safety reasons, intermediate proficiency in Swedish is required for certain positions, while fluency in English is mandatory for all positions.
