Process Optimization Expert

At Sandvik Rock Processing Solutions, we’re now looking for a Process Optimization Expert to join our Performance Solutions team. If you enjoy developing new knowledge and turning it into something that works in practice, this could be the role for you.

About your job

As a Process Optimization Expert, you develop knowledge within Crushing & Screening process performance and turn it into practical guidelines, tools and ways of working. Combining PlantDesigner models with field data, case studies and operational experience, you strengthen how we understand and improve process performance.

You build process competence across the organization and support Sales Areas through the Global Process Expert Network. This includes coaching Global Process Experts, providing training and expertise when needed, and supporting sales representatives, resellers and internal partners in delivering performance solutions.

You also contribute to new performance-related service offerings and ensure Flowsheet and Performance Guarantee approvals follow established procedures.

Location and flexibility

The location for this position is Svedala – just outside of Malmö – and we apply a hybrid work set-up where you can work from home two days a week. International travel is a natural part of your job.

Your profile

You bring a curious mindset, a can-do attitude, and the drive to deliver high-quality results. You work in a structured and pragmatic way and are not afraid to roll up your sleeves when needed. Being a true team player, you believe that collaboration leads to the best solutions — at the same time, you’re comfortable working independently. Your communication skills help you build strong relationships across our global organization, and you thrive in a role where both technical depth and cross functional collaboration are key.

To succeed in this role, you need:

• A university degree in a relevant field, or equivalent experience – preferably a master’s in engineering.

• Extensive relevant professional experience in the areas of process engineering, testing engineering, mechanical engineering, mining engineering, or similar.

• Deep knowledge of Crushing & Screening equipment and process models, and how they perform in practice.

• Experience in process improvement and technical analysis.

• Strong analytical skills and the ability to solve complex problems.

• Proficiency in coaching and developing others, and in facilitating cross-functional work.

• Excellent communication skills in English.

• A valid driver’s license.
