We are searching for a passionate Safety and Security Leader for our safety and security program in Sweden. Your mission will be twofold – you will lead Safety and Security for our Retail Concept and Enabling functions in southern Sweden, whilst bringing together the local Safety and Security teams across Inter IKEA companies and sites in southern Sweden to coordinate and align safety and security approach.   

At IKEA, we do things a little different. We think differently, act differently, and work differently as well. We like to break things. Like rules. And then make things. Like music-playing lamps. And beds disguised as sofas. Even plantballs that help us look after our planet. It’s all part of our vision - to create a better everyday life for the many. And it’s been keeping our co-workers going for over 75 years. By 2030, we hope to help millions more look forward to going home. Maybe you can help us?
