Why work for Statkraft?

Dear skilled professional or student

You may be in the process of assessing or selecting a possible employer.

We believe that you will benefit from making your selection on the basis of five simple criteria:

1) Select a solid, healthy company which has ambitions and offers opportunities on both the national and international level.

Statkraft is the company with the third highest net worth in Norway.

2) Select a growth industry and a growing company.

The power market is undergoing liberalisation both in Europeand the rest of the world. This presents numerous opportunities, and Statkraft has shareholdings in a number of major energy companies in the Nordic region.

3) Select a company which has a clear set of core values.

Statkraft’s corporate culture is characterised by long-term thinking and a dedication to creating lasting value. This is where we are different; we do not merely reward short-term maximisation of profits.

4) Select a company which has a clear identity and takes a multidisciplinary approach.

Statkraft’s core values focus on creating a balance between commitment and competence, and between boldness and responsibility. Our corporate culture emphasises commitment, and we place a premium on our employees sharing their competence, taking on responsibilities and contributing to the communal spirit. Goals are not merely discussed with a view to achieving them, but also with regard to what kind of behaviour, boldness and responsibility is required to achieve them.

5) Select a company with an inclusive corporate culture. 

Statkraft’s corporate culture does not encourage “sharp elbows”. We emphasise competence and cooperation in multidisciplinary projects, and have employees of all ages. We have a good working environment with a pleasant atmosphere and a number of enjoyable social activities. Our active company sports team offers a wide range of activities as well. About a third of our workforce is made up of women, and we are working specifically to increase the number of women employees.

Statkraft has a philosophy which entails looking after its employees and aiding them in their development. The key to our success lies in making sure that each and every employee experiences a sense of job satisfaction and professional development, and that each and every employee strives for – and feels a sense of pleasure at – good results. This is a small taste of what we can offer you as an employer, and we hope to be able to welcome you to Statkraft.
