Yes! We can support you with housing and travel. We will provide you with more information about this during your first call with the recruiter.

You will be employed at NOVO Energy from the start. For your first 18-24 months you will be on leave from NOVO Energy and get a temporary employment at Northvolt. After 18-24 months (whatever is agreed upon), the leave ends and when you move back to Gothenburg you start your job as an employee of NOVO Energy.

Everyone employed by NOVO Energy is offered an initial temporary probationary period which automatically turns into a permanent position if everything is well. This provides both us and you an opportunity to feel that this is right and that we feel comfortable together.

We apply market-based wages, in accordance with collective agreements. More details will be provided during your recruitment process.

As in all production environments, there are risks. In battery cell production there are various chemicals and materials that require special training in handling and storage, as well as special protective equipment. As part of your initial training, we’ll introduce you to all of this, and thereafter provide ongoing opportunities to expand your skills and experiences to prepare you for growing into more senior roles.

Production of battery materials and cells requires highly controlled environments in order to assure high-quality products. Therefore, it’s important that much of the cell production process takes place in clean & dry rooms – environments that limit dirt and particles and are temperature and humidity controlled. Working in a clean & dry room is similar to working in a lab environment, and it requires specific training and protective clothing.
