As a Commissioning Engineer you will support the commissioning planning and preparations at the office, and you get to do commissioning works on Valmet installation sites around the world. The projects include PEC projects focusing on White Liquor Plants.

As Commissioning Engineer you will make sure the commissioning works are done according to Valmet plans and instructions: in schedule, in budget and with good quality. Mostly work is done together with the Valmet team and the client on site, but in smaller projects you can work independently. Ensuring a safe environment and working methods for yourself and your team members is a priority.

Requirements

You should have a degree in a suitable technical field as well as working experience in pulp mills or power generation operations. Hands-on experience in commissioning works of similar equipment and knowledge of automation or control systems is also appreciated. Fluent English skills are essential in this position.

You should have good communication and interpersonal skills to build and keep up good relationships with both external and internal clients. You enjoy problem solving and troubleshooting. Even though this includes very practical tasks, you need to have systematic ways of working and keep your paperwork in order. Interest to work on assignments globally and flexibility to changing conditions are a requirement, as the individual assignments will last for several months at a time.

We offer

We offer you a challenging position in a dynamic global company and a great opportunity for your professional development. You will have the support of our great team.
