Health, Safety & Environment Specialist for Megaproject

Job Description

NCC Green Industry Transformation

Sweden is facing a historic transformation. Heavy industry is undergoing a shift, paving the way for a fossil-free future that creates significant value in terms of economic growth, technological development, and the environment. As an important part of community development in northern Sweden—where some of the most critical investments are taking place—we are now seeking a driven Health, Safety & Environment Specialist (HSE), a key role in one of our complex projects in Northern Sweden.

The role as HSE Specialist

Do you want to help shape the industry of the future and play a key role in complex projects – in a safe and sustainable way? As a HSE Specialist on one of Sweden’s largest construction projects, you will have a central role in driving and developing systematic health and safety work on site. This is a role where your contribution truly makes a difference – every day, in the operation.

You will work closely with production and other project functions on matters such as safety inspections, statistics, risk assessments, incident and non-conformance management, and preventative health and safety initiatives. You will lead and participate in meetings, and develop instructions and presentation materials.

This role is not just about rules and procedures – it is about creating a strong, active safety culture where people thrive, perform, and return home safely. With a physical presence on the construction site, and close collaboration with the client and all project functions, you will help build both structure and culture.

You will report to our Head of Staff and become part of a committed team in an organisation where your efforts make a real difference.

Qualifications

Your profile

We are looking for someone with experience from large-scale projects – preferably in construction and/or industrial projects or environments – where you have worked hands-on with health and safety issues. You have relevant education or equivalent knowledge gained through professional experience, and you are confident in taking ownership of your area.

You are used to driving initiatives independently and joining projects at an early stage, where you will develop and implement processes. At the same time, you work in close collaboration with the client and other professional roles in complex environments. You are proficient in both Swedish and English, and have the ability to communicate clearly and engagingly, both in conversation and in presentations.

Would you like to be part of something significant – while contributing to a safe and sustainable working environment for every individual on site? Then we would very much like to meet you.

Additional Information

Location

On-site presence in the city of Luleå (North of Sweden) is set to at least 50% of working hours—and at certain periods, the role will require close to full-time presence on site in Luleå. This is a prerequisite for succeeding in the role. However, it is possible to take on this exciting opportunity even if you are based elsewhere in Sweden, provided you have good travel options to Luleå (e.g., Boden, Piteå, Skellefteå, Stockholm, Uppsala, etc.). NCC will arrange travel and accommodation within Sweden.

For this position, background checks are conducted in accordance with NCC’s security culture.

Swedish Work Permit

Candidates must have the legal right to work in Sweden. The role requires regular on-site presence in Sweden and limited relocation support is available.
