With Servica, you can grow

What is your job title and what are your responsibilities?

I work as a sustainability specialist. My responsibilities include Servica’s annual emissions calculation, as well as implementing and executing the actions outlined in the sustainability program. In addition, my work involves communication, reporting, and conducting sustainability orientations, as well as preparing and planning for future initiatives. On a daily basis, I also handle routine tasks such as responding to emails.

What did you study?

I am a civil engineer. In addition, I have been studying a specialist vocational qualification in resource efficiency alongside my work, and in a couple of weeks I will graduate as a low-carbon expert.

How did you come to work for Servica?

During my civil engineering studies, I became interested in circular economy, environmental themes, and life cycle assessment. I hoped that my career would allow me to work on these topics. However, my studies did not cover the entire field of sustainability, rather, they focused more on environmental responsibility. I pondered that a work trial could be a good opportunity to gain deeper insight into the field.

I contacted Servica, attended an interview, and was offered a work trial position. Last autumn, I received a fixed-term position as a sustainability specialist. I was happy to join a large organization where sustainability work was already ongoing.

What’s the best thing about your job and Servica?

The best part of my job is that it aligns with my values, and I feel that I am working on meaningful and important issues. I’ve received the necessary support and guidance from my supervisor as well as from my colleagues.

I appreciate most about Servica the opportunity to learn and grow, and to explore a wide range of topics. Servica offers many different services and functions, which has allowed me to become familiar with various areas in a multidisciplinary way. It has been both interesting and educational. Everyone at Servica has their own area of expertise, and it has been fascinating to learn about them.

What would you like to say to someone who is considering Servica as an employer?

With Servica, you can grow. I have heard others say the same. Many Servica employees have started in completely different roles than the ones they are in now. It’s great that at Servica you can also apply for different positions based on your own interests.

From an employee’s perspective, Servica is a reliable and professional employer.
