What you’ll do

Right now, we are looking for a Site Water Manager for our greenfield plant in Boden. In this role you will report to our Head of Mill Services.

As Site Water Manager, you will own how all water services on site are delivered once systems are up and running. This includes raw and potable water, water treatment, wastewater, and stormwater.

You will be responsible for contracts, service performance, and day-to-day governance - making sure services meet regulatory, commercial, and operational requirements. Working closely with service providers and internal teams, you will monitor performance, solve issues, and improve how water is managed over time, with a strong focus on reliability, efficiency, and sustainability.

This role suits someone who enjoys responsibility, collaboration, and making complex systems work well in practice.

Specific to this role, the day-to-day tasks will include the following but as we are a growing company with very little silos between teams, other tasks might be included as well.

• Lead and support the site water team through clear direction, coaching, and capability development.

• Own the management of all site water systems, including raw water, process and wastewater treatment, stormwater and contact water ponds, potable water, pipelines, and sewers.

• Act as Stegra’s contract owner for Water Treatment Plants 1 & 2 and related service and chemical supply contracts, ensuring performance, compliance, and cost control.

• Ensure water and wastewater quality compliance through oversight, monitoring, and advisory support to operational teams.

• Manage relationships with service partners and the municipality, closing contract gaps and ensuring reliable, compliant water supply.

• Drive long-term reliability, risk management, and budget control for water infrastructure, with a focus on efficiency and sustainability.

What you’ll bring

You’re curious and believe that real progress happens when we work together. You’re not afraid to challenge old ways of thinking - and you treat others with respect while doing it. At Stegra, we value people who take initiative, build trust, and help create a workplace where everyone can do their best.

Specific to this role, we would like to see that you can tick off a fair amount of the boxes below

• Degree in engineering (mechanical, chemical, industrial, production, or similar); water treatment or environmental certifications are a plus.

• At least 5 years’ experience in heavy or process industry, preferably in operational or site-based roles.

• Solid experience with service contracts, budgeting, and cost control.

• Background in projects, commissioning, or start-up environments.

• Knowledge of ISO 9001, 14001, and 45001 and how to apply them in daily operations.

• Strong collaboration and leadership skills; fluent English required, basic Swedish is an advantage.
