Do you want to work for a sustainable society? Join us at IVL.
Bridging science and society
At IVL Swedish Environmental Research Institute, we conduct applied research and consultancy for organisations and companies that need expert support in environmental and sustainability issues. To deliver this, we work closely with both industry and the public sector. Today, IVL employs around 500 environmental specialists covering most areas of environment and sustainability.
IVL has offices in several locations across Sweden, including Stockholm, Gothenburg, Malmö, Fiskebäckskil and Skellefteå. We also have an international presence, with offices in Mumbai in India, Beijing and Wuhan in China, Bogotá in Colombia, and Amman in Jordan. In addition, IVL has a few colleagues who work remotely, including from France and Spain.
Our team includes engineers, environmental scientists, behavioural scientists, economists, communicators, IT specialists and social scientists, to name just a few. We combine broad expertise with deep specialist knowledge – one quarter of our employees hold doctorates. IVL's expertise is in high demand, and our work makes a real impact. Maybe you are our next colleague?

Social activities
IVL's sports and art- and cultural associations are run by committed employees and sponsored by the company. Maybe you want to participate in the annual art lottery? Or try a new sport? Everything takes place on a voluntary basis and the activities are adapted so that everyone can participate.
We have a joint IVL party every two years, Christmas gathering, as well as other activities such as pubs and game nights. And of course we have office "fikas" once a week, a good way to get to know new colleagues.
