Typical career for hired engineers:

When you work for Electrolux, you get the opportunity of a career encompassing a wide range of roles and responsibilities in a truly international environment.

Thinking of your career

At Electrolux, recruitment is only the first stage. We want to ensure our employees achieve their full potential throughout their entire career with us. We help our employees to constantly set new goals and coach them along each step of the way. We provide them with the training they need and the feedback they deserve in order to motivate them to perform at their very best.

Mobility - a part of career development

As a highly international company, we strongly encourage mobility between countries, business sectors and functions, as it strengthens the internationalism, professionalism and diversity of our people– and adds to our competitive strength. At the same time, it builds a strong Electrolux leadership.

Mobility is a crucial tool to develop our people and to utilize the knowledge and expertise within the Group. Upon completing a job mission, we believe that a transfer to a new assignment can offer a new learning and growth-enhancing experience, such as:

* An increased understanding of our cross-functional and cross-border business processes

* An opportunity to learn from different cultures

* Exposure to different role models and best practices

Our open jobs-market approach aims at increasing career opportunities and mobility. We have developed a company job posting and recruitment database (Open Labor Market, OLM) that is used as a springboard for employees to seek career opportunities within the Electrolux Group, and which is also accessible through the job listings on this website. Managerial and many other open positions are posted on the OLM to be transparent and give all applicants equal opportunity to apply for positions throughout the Group.

Managing and expanding your skills

We believe that great leaders and great people create better results. Therefore we have made talent management and people development a top priority – an area with significant management attention.

We believe that talent, that is our people and all their abilities and skills, is an asset. And like any other asset, it needs to be managed. When we talk about talent management, we're referring to a systematic approach to promoting and developing all the talent within the Electrolux Group.

Our aim is that Electrolux has a strong pool of outstanding people and a performance culture that strives for excellence. We believe this will lead to outstanding business results. To achieve this, we actively manage our talent assets. Through appraisal talks and talent reviews we evaluate our people and focus on their development. We strive to grow our people through challenging jobs, mobility, coaching, feedback, training, etc.

Career development at Electrolux is a dual responsibility shared between the employee and Electrolux. This means that each manager is responsible for developing his or her people and their career, and that each individual in turn is responsible for seeking out new challenges and actively managing his or her career. And we consider people development a key managerial skill.

During a career with us, you will come into contact with many different aspects of our talent management - from coaching, feedback, appraisal talks and talent reviews to mobility and training programs.

It's all about your development - and how you develop others.
