HSE Specialist

Hitachi ABB Power Grids’ High Voltage Products team provides products which help enhance the safety, reliability and efficiency of power networks while minimizing environmental impact. Our technology leadership continues to facilitate developments in areas such as ultra-high-voltage power transmission, enabling smart grids and enhancing eco-efficiency.
The High Power Lab in Ludvika is a unique test facility for high voltage products. Its main purpose is to perform high quality testing both in the development of new products and in certification of the products for a global market. A large variety of non-routine electrical test procedures implies that health and safety is a critical area. Our ambition is to establish the HSE area in the lab as "best-in-class" and something that we are proud of and that can serve as a role model within Power Grids.
“As HSE specialist here with us you will report directly to me, Johan Ekh, as the lab manager. I strongly believe in creating an atmosphere that encourages people take ownership of their area and to develop a “can-do” attitude. Collaboration and teamwork where we are transparent and treat each other with respect, even when the heat is on, is important to me.
Health & Safety is our 'license to operate' and I am strongly committed to make sure that we as a team reach our ambition to be best-in-class. This role comes with a great deal of responsibility and offers the chance to develop and to build networks both locally and globally. I’m looking forward to Your application!" - Johan Ekh
