The Hydro Graduate Program - The starting point for your Hydro career
In Hydro we have focus on hiring and developing the workforce of tomorrow. Every year we have several Graduate positions, where we are looking for young professionals early in their careers. All positions are permanent, within different business units and areas of expertise, but all graduate positions will take part in the graduate program.

About the department
Do you want to shape our story with your personality, expertise and ambitions? At Hydro we are a global family of 35 000 people that extract, produce, shape and reuse the world’s most flexible and sustainable metal into infinite innovations and applications.

Technology and Operational Support (TOS) is part of Hydro’s Aluminium Metal business area, which has a total annual production capacity of more than 2 million tons of primary aluminium and around 5000 employees in 16 countries. The main task of TOS is to support all commercial and operational units in accelerating Aluminium Metal’s profitability and sustainability agenda in the short and medium term - while having longer term technology development as a core activity. 

We are now recruiting a Graduate to join the Operational Support Casthouse team in TOS. They support casthouses in 15 locations around the world to achieve their goals within safety, quality and productivity, and to contribute to Hydro’s strategic ambition to increase recycling and the production of greener products. 

If you’d like to use and develop your technical knowledge in a collaborative environment with high activity and involvement across many locations, this is a great opportunity for you to start your career!

These are some key tasks: 

• Contribute to problem-solving and improvement initiatives
• Support cross functional learning between the casthouses around the world
• Participate in and develop performance audits in casthouses
• Support Hydro’s commercial strategy and implementation of new products for customers
• Use data to analyze and improve operation
• Contact and cooperate with Hydro's technology department
• Secondments to casthouses, also internationally

Our Graduate positions give considerable knowledge about the aluminium business and are essential for developing new leaders and professionals in Hydro. Key roles will typically require experience from different parts of the company, so a Graduate is expected to be flexible and mobile. For the right candidate, the position might give interesting possibilities both nationally and internationally.

Qualifications

• Maximum 2 years’ work experience after graduation
