Information about collection of your personal data:
When completing the questionnaire, data is collected about your name, email, gender, CV and cover letter.

We collect and register the personal information you have given in this questionnaire. Thereafter, we will potentially collect and register additional information about your skills from references and social media in order to evaluate your competences and experience for the position in question. Subsequently, you may be asked to fill out a personality profile and/or a video as a part of the process. Based on this information, we will develop a profile which we register and store for a period of 6 months.

The purpose of the abovementioned processing of your personal data is to evaluate your qualifications in relation to the specific position at the company/organisation you have applied for, as well as in relation to any future vacancies.

The information you have given in the questionnaire may be subject to automated decision-making. The logic behind this decision will be based on objective criteria, which makes it possible to identify applicants with the desired qualifications.

The legal basis for the processing of your personal data is your given consent.

Your consent to the abovementioned processing can be withdrawn at any time with the result that the registration of your data is deleted. Withdrawing your consent can be done by contacting the person responsible for the recruitment process at the data controller.

Your personal data will be stored for a period of 6 months after which it will be deleted.

You have the right to at any time request information about your personal data, and to have it rectified or deleted. You also have the right to request a limitation of the processing or to object to the processing. This can be done by contacting the person who issues the questionnaire at the data controller.

You have the right to receive the personal data you have given in the questionnaire in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, as long as an anonymisation of the data has not taken place.

It is voluntary to answer the questions in the questionnaire, but an omission to answer the questions will reduce the ability of the data controller to evaluate your competences in the presupposed way, which in turn may affect the assessment of your qualifications in relation to the position in question.

You will find additional information about handling of personal information on KOMPAN.com.

Central role with a focus on safety
You will play a central role in KOMPAN’s development team, working in close collaboration with the rest of the organization on new and further development of exciting product lines.

The focal point is the safety evaluation of customer-specific projects, where you will be involved from the idea stage right up to the handover to production.

You will be the key safety person on the projects and an innovative and creative player in the interdisciplinary collaboration creating innovative solutions.

More specifically, your responsibilities include:

• Being an expert within selected segments/product lines
• Participating in the safety evaluation of customer-specific solutions designed and developed in KOMPAN's own Design Studios.
• Participating in product development projects and providing safety input to designers and engineers.

This is based on your analytical approach and a natural interest and curiosity for product development where quality and safety are paramount.

It is crucial that you understand the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration, both internally and externally, to jointly create the conditions for the best solutions.

You have a strong sense of ownership and the ability to make decisions on an informed and well-argued basis.

You thrive in an open culture where daily life is characterized by dedicated colleagues who are passionate about their profession and products, and where the pulse can be high at times. There is a healthy growth culture with good opportunities for development.

Further, you:

• Hold an educational background as a mechanical or production engineer or similar.
• Probably come from the manufacturing industry, with a focus on product development or quality assurance.
• Have experience with standards and tests but would also like to help set new standards.
