Job Description

Shape the future of energy.

Are you ready to challenge the status quo, bring fresh perspectives and contribute to solving one of society's most important challenges? We are looking for talented graduates to join the Vattenfall International Trainee Programme.

About the traineeship.

This traineeship offers you a unique opportunity to kickstart your career in sustainable business. Each of the trainee positions is distinct, tied to a department within a specific business area and working location.

As Joakim, a former International Trainee based in Stockholm, explains, “I expected beforehand that working at a corporate would mean only serious business. We do focus on learning and growth and bringing new perspectives to the company, but we also have fun and add humor and lightness. I feel like we are the change the company wants to see.”
