In the 30 countries Ovako operates, we have about 2,900 employees in a wide range of functions. At our nine production sites, we meet dedicated and determined employees who ensure that we are manufacturing engineering steel that meets our customers' high demands. Also, we have outstanding specialists who, often together with the customers, improve the properties of steel grades in order to provide lighter, environmentally friendly solutions to the company's customers.
Anneli Anhelm is driven by turning questions into answers, and by developing the steel products of the future. Meet Anneli Anhelm, head of technical customer service and product development, who tried out a number of opportunities before she knew what she wanted to work with.
Sebastian Smed started his personal journey at Ovako as a summer temp in 2010 - but Sebastian is actually the fourth generation in an unbroken line of the Smed family to work at Ovako in Hällefors. Ever since that summer, he has continued progressing within the company and in addition to his role as a process operator at the rolling mill, Sebastian is also a safety and union representative for IF Metall.
Julia Hermansson has been a controller at Ovako Hällefors since 2017. Her role as a controller includes preparing and following up business plans, budgets and financial statements to analyze and evaluate operational performance. When the opportunity arose for a job that turned out to be a good fit with where she was in her life and education, she jumped at the chance to apply - a decision she has never regretted!
