Frequently asked questions
Can I work remote?
Northvolters are a dynamic workforce on the move visiting other sites on a regular as well as irregular basis. Sometimes this means it is also more convenient or efficient to spend a day or two working from a place outside of our offices. This is fine as long as we do this in alignment with our team and support of our joint projects. For production personnel that is needed by our machines, remote work is not possible.
Does Northvolt help with relocation?
Yes! We support you in the process of immigration, finding a home, schooling, spouse support, and much more. We will provide you with more information about this during the first call with the recruiter.
What will I earn?
We apply market-based wages, in accordance with collective agreements. More details will be provided during your recruitment process. On top of your salary, you will get the opportunity to acquire Northvolt shares at a fixed price.
Do I have to be able to speak Swedish to work in Sweden?
We're fortunate to be surrounded by many different nationalities, and until we invent Northvoltish, we speak English! But if you want to learn Swedish, we provide courses for that.
What kind of employment can I get?
Everyone employed by Northvolt is offered an initial temporary probationary period which automatically turns into a permanent position if everything is well. This provides both us and you with an opportunity to decide if the position is a good fit and ensure that we’re both happy.
