The Viscaria mine in Kiruna is a vital step towards increasing Sweden's and the EU's self-sufficiency in critical minerals. With its high copper content, assessed mineral resources, calculated mineral reserves, strategic geographical location, and a growing team of experts, Viscaria is well-positioned to deliver quality copper while adhering to the highest environmental and sustainability standards. By utilising the latest mining techniques, sophisticated logistics, and advanced water treatment, Viscaria strives to become one of the world's most sustainable copper-iron producers.
At Viscaria, we are committed to fostering a culture of equality, diversity, inclusion, and respect for all. In 2024, our dedication was recognised when Viscaria earned a place on the AllBright Green List—a recognition celebrating companies that have made significant strides in promoting equality, diversity, and inclusion.
Do you want to be part of this exciting journey? Join us in an operation where courage, commitment, and collaboration are the foundation of our success. We are currently looking for Summer Geologists to join our Exploration Geology department during the summer months (June-July-August).
 
Job opportunity Our Summer Geologists will be based in Kiruna, focusing on the Viscaria Copper-Iron project, which is in an exciting phase of near-mine and district-scale exploration. This presents a unique opportunity to learn about discovering new orebodies and integrating them into an upcoming copper mining operation. The region offers immense potential for major copper discoveries and provides exceptional outdoor leisure opportunities near numerous Scandinavian attractions.
The work primarily involves drill-core logging, including core preparation, geological and geotechnical data collection, sampling, and field work, following rigorous QAQC protocols. These target zones are located between 400 and 1.7km depth within a well-preserved IOCG-IOA system, offering a rare chance to study both the tops and bottoms of such formations. The data collected during this phase forms the foundation for subsequent geotechnical, resource, and economic studies.
You will be part of a diverse team of geologists, supervised by experienced experts, but may also work independently at times. The role can be physically demanding as handling drill cores requires resilience. This is an excellent opportunity to gain valuable experience in a safe, top-tier mining jurisdiction in Europe, providing the essential skills to embark on a rewarding career in the mineral industry.
 
Education and experience If you are currently studying geology or have just completed a university education in geology with good qualifications this opportunity is for you.
We expect the applicant has strong interest and in any or several of the disciplines of mineral exploration, e.g. field mapping, exploration geophysics, geochemistry or structural geology. You should have a positive, courageous and curious attitude to getting discoveries done and be a team player with a safety-first mindset. As we have an international team, we require good proficiency in English language and a class B (or valid equivalent) driving license.

Please apply no later than 28 February

- Expertise in at least two of the following: litho-structural geology, mineralogy/geochemistry, 3D modelling, Geomet/met.
- Demonstrated ability to influence, mentor, and guide others through technical credibility rather than formal authority.
- Fluency in English, both spoken and written; Swedish is a plus, or a willingness to learn.
- A valid B-class driver’s license for manual gearbox
We’re looking for someone who thrives in a collaborative environment, enjoys sharing knowledge, and is passionate about improving exploration practices. You are comfortable working with incomplete data, ambiguity, and competing hypotheses, and you enjoy helping others develop confidence in geological decision-making. You’re structured, curious, and confident in constructively challenging interpretations to drive better outcomes.

Du kan uttrycka dig obehindrat i både tal och skrift på svenska och engelska.  Personalen vid forskningsstationen utgör ett litet team som måste kunna samarbeta väl varför vi ställer högakrav på god samarbetsförmåga, flexibilitet och lyhördhet.

Stor vikt läggs på personlig lämplighet där vi värderar god attityd, god fysik samt ett stabilt och vänligt psyke. Naturvetenskapliga universitetsstudier med fokus på glaciologi, hydrologi, arktiska ekosystem, och/eller fjärranalys är meriterande. Likaså är utbildning i HLR och första hjälpen-behandling i terräng meriterande.

Arbetsperioderna är 30/6–21/9.

Period 1: 30/6 – 27/7 (ankomst 30/6, avresa 24/7)

Period 2: 24/7 - 24/8 (ankomst 21/7, avresa 20/8)

Period 3: 21/8 – 21/9 (ankomst 17/8, avresa 21/9)

Meddela i din ansökan vilken/vilka arbetsperioder du är intresserad av att jobba.

Om du söker hela arbetsperioden (30/6–21/9) arbetar du fem veckor, är ledig två veckor och sen arbetar de resterande fem veckorna. Du arbetar fem dagar per vecka och är ledig två dagar, dock inte nödvändigtvis under helgen. Ankomst till TRS sker 30/6 och avresa från TRS är 21/9.

Om anställningen
Anställningarna är säsongsanställningar. Mat och logi ingår, men förmånsbeskattas. Ankomst- och avresedag ligger utanför anställningsperioden och räknas inte som arbetsdag. Resekostnader ersätts med upp till max 3 000 kronor för resa tur och retur Tarfala.

För att ta dig till och från forskningsstationen vandrar du 24 kilometer från Nikkaluokta, delvis i alpin terräng. Möjlighet att transportera bagage (utöver dagspacknigen, via helikopter) finns, dock inte nödvändigtvis exakt vid ankomst/avresedag.

Stockholms universitet strävar efter att vara en arbetsplats som är fri från diskriminering och ger lika möjligheter för alla. Tillträde enligt överenskommelse. Intervjuer pågår löpande under hela utlysningsperioden.

vid Stockholms universitets Östersjöcentrum. Sista ansökningsdag:  2024-12-31.

Tarfala forskningsstation (TRS, från engelska Tarfala Research Station) är ett centrum för fjällforskning vid Stockholms universitet, belägen i Tarfaladalen på östra sidan av Kebnekaise ca 1130 möh och 24 kilometer från vägs ände i Nikkaluokta. Vid TRS bedrivs långtidsobservationer av glaciärer, vattendrag, permafrost och vegetation.

TRS leds av en föreståndare och en styrelse och har öppet ca 1,5 månader under vårvintern och ca 3 månader under sommaren. Utöver dessa perioder kan TRS även öppnas vid behov för kortare besök. Vid TRS finns kapacitet för 36 boende, ett fullt utrustat kök, föreläsningssal, bastu, tvättstuga, enklare laboratorier och en verkstad. Under stationens öppettider förstärks TRS permanenta personal (föreståndare och operativ stationschef) med säsongspersonal (drifttekniker, köksansvarig, fältassistenter, forskningsassistenter).

Varje år kommer svenska och internationella forskare och studenter till TRS för att studera den arktiska alpina miljön och glaciärerna i området. Nu söker vi en teknik- och fältverksamhetsansvarig (TFA framöver) till TRS som förstärkning till personalen på stationen. Anställning sker på Stockholms universitets Östersjöcentrum, där TRS är en självständing enhet. TRS personalförstärkningen med TFA ingår i en särskild satsning för TRS som initialt görs t o m 2028.

Arbetsuppgifter
TFAs huvuduppgifter utgörs av att stödja och utveckla verksamheten vid TRS på plats, med fokus på daglig stationsdrift och fältarbete i stationens när-och fjärrområde. TFA förstärker TRS ledning på plats (föreståndare och operativ stationschef) och ingår därför i verksamhetens ledningsgrupp. Arbetsplatsansvar delegeras till TFA när varken förståndare eller operativ stationschef kan vara på plats.

TFA’s arbete utförs på plats på TRS, i fält samt i och kring Tarfaladalen. TRS geografiska läge innebär att verksamhetens vardagslogistik på stationen och i fält måste planeras långsiktigt på ett sätt som minimerar påverkan på den ömtåliga arktiska miljön runt TRS.

Tillsammans med TRS föreståndare och operativ stationschef arbetar TFA för att TRS ska vara ett internationellt ledande glaciärcenter, där tvärvetenskaplig forskning av högsta kvalité om den högalpina fjällmiljön i Sverige, klimatförändringar och världens kryosfär utförs och kommuniceras även bredare än bara inom akademin. Specifikt innebär det att skapa de bästa möjliga förutsättningar för såväl TRS gäster som personal för att genomföra innovativa forsknings- och/eller undervisningsprojekt både i fält kring stationen och på stationen. Exempel på arbetsuppgifter är att:


• Vara ledningsstöd för TRS föreståndare samt operativ stationschef, och vid behov arbetsleda säsongspersonal.
• Ansvara för underhåll av stationens resurser med fokus på fordon, instrument och utrustning, och för koordinering gällande resursernas optimala användning.
• Planera och leda och/eller delta i fältinsatser som TRS genomför självt, eller som TRS besökare genomför.
• Planera och leda praktiska stationsunderhåll- och utvecklingsprojekt så som mindre byggnationer.
• Verka för att nyttiggörandet av forskningen som bedrivs på TRS gynnar speciellt lokalsamhällen liksom lokala aktörer i TRS området.

Kvalifikationer
Vi söker dig som kan vara på plats under hela TRS öppningstid (ca 5 mån per år) och kan utföra arbete i högalpin och glacial miljö och  talar både svenska och engelska flytande. Dessutom ska du jobba med TRS vardagslogistik som faller inom ditt huvud-ansvarsområde innan och efter TRS öppettider (ca 1 månad per år sammanlagt). Vi vill att du har:


• Fjälledarutbildning enligt normen för certi?erad fjälledare, samt dokumenterat arbetserfarenhet från detta.
• Skoterkörkort och stor vana av att köra skoter och skotertransporter i svår terräng.
• Certifiering för skoterguidning enligt BOHST.
• Dokumenterad erfarenhet som uppdragsspecialist i roll av bisittare vid helikopter-verksamhet.
• Utbildning i HLR och första hjälpen-behandling i terräng.
• Utbildning in SVELAV Pro 1.
• Gedigen erfarenhet av att:


• facilitera den bästa möjliga dagliga driften av en verksamhet i en högalpin och avlägsen miljö
• leda fältverksamhet, med speciell hänsyn till säkerhetsmässiga, operativa och logistiska aspekter
• delta och/eller leda räddningsinsatser i alpin- och fjällmiljö
• organisera och delta i helikopterverksamhet som uppstår i samband med verksamhet som bedrivs på en forskningsstation, främst person- och varutransport.

Följande anses meriterande: kunskap om forskningen som bedrivs på TRS. Tidigare arbetserfarenhet från TRS eller liknande miljöer. Erfarenhet från att arbeta med skidpatrull eller som skidlärare. Arbetserfarenhet från projekt som kräver rope-accesscertifiering.

Personalen vid forskningsstationen utgör ett litet team som måste kunna samarbeta väl för att säkerställa att TRS, och TRS’s gästers, forsknings- och utbildningsverksamhet ska fungera optimalt och på ett hållbart sätt. Därför ställs höga krav på god samarbetsförmåga, flexibilitet och lyhördhet, och personlig lämplighet.

Anställningsvillkor
Anställningen avser 50 % av heltid och gäller tills vidare med sex månaders provanställning. Stockholms universitet tillämpar individuell lönesättning, ange därför gärna löneanspråk. Tillträde snarast.

Stockholms universitet strävar efter att vara en arbetsplats som är fri från diskriminering och ger lika möjligheter för alla.

• Ensure that the geotechnical data collection is adequately done, is standardized, and with QA/QC.
• Planning and follow-up of dedicated geotechnical drilling programs.
• Liaise with mine geologists and structural geologists.
The position is within the Mining Technology Department and you will report directly to the section manager.
You will be based in Kiruna. Travel between different mine sites will be part of the job.
Qualifications
You must have at least 5 years of relevant experience in geotechnical mapping and core logging, good observational skills for rock mass characterization and knowledge of geotechnical classification systems (Q-system, RMR, MRMR), ability to review large datasets and 3D modelling expertise.
You are encouraged to have a well-developed ability to cooperate, excellent communication skills, experience in informal leadership roles and adhere to LKAB`s code of conduct. A systematic, structured, and self-motivated attitude is required for this role.
We Offer
Our unique operations require employees with unique knowledge. Regardless of the position, we help and support one another – across departmental and organizational boundaries – throughout the group. It is important to us that you want to contribute to the warm and inclusive culture that is the basis for our success. We are all driven by a strong commitment and want to create value for our customers. We like challenges and welcome new ideas. We build trust by taking responsibility, and with us safety always comes first. Our values are thus Commitment, Innovation and Responsibility.

The company:
LKAB is an international and high-tech mining and minerals group that mines and upgrades the unique iron ore of northern Sweden for the global steel market. Sustainability is core to our business and our ambition is to be one of the industry’s most innovative, resource-efficient and responsible companies. The group had sales of about SEK 31 billion in 2019 and employs about 4,300 people in 12 countries. Other group business includes industrial minerals, drilling systems, rail transport, rockwork services and property management.
The Norra Gruva Gruvplanering (Mine planning) section has the task of conducting LKAB's ore exploration and planning for the mining of raw ore in the Kiruna underground mine. NGG houses operations for Geology, Diamond Drilling, Rock Mechanics, Surveying and Mine Planning, which in unison are responsible for the mine's future strategic investments and ongoing mining plans.
NGG’s Geology department consists of a varied team of geologists, ranging from junior geologist to experienced specialists, which all work towards a safe and sustainable mining operation. LKAB is taking on the challenges of the future and as a part of NGG you’ll work with our unique iron ore body, one of the largest coherent bodies in the world. We are currently looking to bolster our workplace with a Structural Geologist.


The opportunity:
As our main Structural Geologist, you’ll hold a key role for our continued geological mapping. Together with NGG’s other operations and your colleagues you’ll continuously map and assess the geological features of the mine. You’ll act as a central hub of collecting information and synchronizing our mapping techniques, the job therefore requires you to be analytical and communicative.
In a long term sense, we believe that you’ll be crucial in integrating geological information with rock mechanical properties for blocks and mine, with special attention to rock tension and seismic situations, into a coherent model. You’ll also hold a key part in keeping it continuously updated and rich for wide usage in our operations.
As a part of our workplace you’ll have mandate and scope for action in an environment of openness and cooperation. You report to your Group Manager and work closely with both internal and external resources such as experts from our prospecting section and the mine’s production based operations.


Your qualifications:
On a personal level you should be responsible and detail-driven with an analytical mind and a sense of precision. You see yourself as a team-player and value your colleagues and associates, with an ability to position yourself as a dependable part of the organisation.
You hold a MSc or a PhD with former experience in structural geology. You are also familiar with standard mine planning software such as Leapfrog.
A driver’s licence is a requirement for this position. You communicate well in both spoken and written English, with any level of Swedish seen as advantageous.
Commitment, Innovation and Responsibility are important keywords for you in your daily work. We at LKAB believe it is important to have an inclusive climate where everyone feels welcome and we look forward to the new thoughts, ideas and perspectives that you bring with you.


What we offer:
Opportunities in a highly technological, international mining and minerals group with grand-scale operations on a global market. As an employee of LKAB you partake in the company’s reward system and other benefits such as educational assistance through our scholarships, the company health plan, dental care package and personal development plans and leisure activities with access to both gym and training facilities, arts groups, mountain cabins and much more. While also participating in the Swedish pensions and welfare system in the unique and wonderful landscape that is Norrbotten.


Further information:
