Job Description

Are you interested in a job where you design both new and renovation construction sites and see your handiwork concretely in completed buildings? We are now looking for a concrete structural designer for our Vaasa team for versatile design tasks. As a concrete structural designer, you will design load-bearing concrete structures for various building projects. You will be responsible for your own design entities and move solutions forward in cooperation with the project manager, the rest of the design team, and the customer. Your desk may have both smaller, independently implemented design tasks and larger entities as part of a project group. Our assignments cover new and renovation projects – from small expert tasks to significant large-scale projects. We can tailor the job description according to your specialization and interest. It is important to us that you get to develop and receive projects that correspond to your experience level and challenge you appropriately. We are not afraid to give responsibility and we trust our experts. We work in 28 locations, of which your own office is located in Vaasa. Keys to success in the position: We hope you have at least six years of experience in concrete structural design. You have a suitable education in the construction industry (M.Sc. Tech / B.Sc. Arch / B.Eng. UAS). You master the basics of statics and the dimensioning of load-bearing structures and can fluently use Office tools and AutoCAD or Tekla Structures design software. Knowledge of RFEM and other industry software is considered an advantage. You have good interaction skills and the ability to communicate fluently and clearly in Finnish. You naturally operate as part of a team, but you do not shy away from independent tasks. You take responsibility for your own design work and are not afraid to invent new ways of doing things. An open attitude and interest in various structural design tasks will help you succeed in your work. What we promise you: We understand well that there is certainly demand for an expert like you. We want to convince you that this job opportunity is worth seizing specifically with Sweco. - Transforming society together. At Sweco, you are involved in creating the cities of the future and a more sustainable society – you are really making an impact. - Curious, brave and encouraging work community. You will get to work with experienced architects in a close-knit community where we value, support and encourage each other. - You will certainly not miss out on career and learning opportunities. It is important to us that you get to develop and design your own career path. Our Sweco Academy offers diverse training opportunities. - When things happen in everyday life, we are flexible. Work and other life sometimes require adjustment. Good work-life experiences are important. - Our versatile and comprehensive personnel benefits are not made up; you can influence their content yourself. Further information and application: You can apply for this position and become our colleague via the attached link by August 17, 2026. We review applications and meet those interested in the position already during the application period, so do not wait until the last moment.
