Summer job in production
Most of our summer jobs are in production. You’ll be right in the middle of high-tech machinery with control systems comparable to a jumbo jet, and production speeds that can reach over 1,900 meters per minute. Here, you’ll gain insight into process and product development while working alongside our regular staff on tasks such as process monitoring and roll handling.
 
Summer job in the lab
You’ll find our labs within the development departments. Here, you’ll work alongside our regular staff on everything from quality control and chemical analysis of the recycling process to issuing quality certificates and participating in complaint investigations.
 
Summer jobs in support functions
There are also opportunities for summer jobs in areas such as finance, marketing, maintenance, and transport.
Summer job in forestry
If you’ve started a post-secondary forestry education or equivalent, you have the opportunity to apply for a summer job in one of our three regions across the country. As a summer employee, you may work with tasks such as quality follow-up in forest management, harvesting, and thinning. Alternatively, you could take on substitute roles such as logistics coordinator, production supervisor, or forest management leader.
 
Summer job at our tree nurseries
We also offer summer job opportunities for high school students and older at our nurseries in Gideå and Friggesund.
