The project combines method development with practical application and may contribute to Scania's future environmental work globally.\nA Master's thesis project is an excellent opportunity to get to know Scania and build relationships for the future. Many of our current employees started their careers at Scania by completing their thesis with us.\nBackground\nGreen areas at industrial sites play an important role in supporting biodiversity, ecosystem services and climate adaptation. At the same time, industrial sites are continuously being developed through new buildings, infrastructure and other changes that may affect existing green areas.\nScania has an environmental principle for biodiversity, but currently lacks a common method for measuring and monitoring changes in green areas and their values across its industrial sites.\nSeveral methods are available for measuring and assessing green areas, biodiversity and ecosystem services, including the Green Area Factor (”Grönytefaktor”, GYF), Climb and the Green Benefits Model (GBM). GYF is primarily used in urban planning and development and is therefore not fully adapted to the conditions found at larger industrial sites.\nScania Group Environment wants to investigate which method best meets Scania's needs and how it could be adapted for industrial sites. The starting point is GYF, but the approach may change based on the comparison with Climb and GBM. The method should provide a practical tool for assessing green areas and monitoring changes over time.\nObjective\nThe objective of this Master's thesis is to propose a practical method for measuring and monitoring green areas at industrial sites.\nThe starting point is to adapt the Green Area Factor (GYF), while also comparing it with Climb and the Green Benefits Model (GBM) to determine which approach best meets Scania's needs.\nThe method should provide a clear picture of the current situation and make it possible to monitor changes resulting from construction and development projects.\nJob description\nDuring the thesis project, the student is expected to:\nCompare the strengths and limitations of GYF, Climb and GBM based on Scania's needs and conditions.\nEvaluate how well the methods can be used to measure changes before and after a project.\nAssess how easily the methods can be used by project managers and others without specialist knowledge of biodiversity or ecosystem services.\nSelect a suitable method based on the comparison and adapt it for industrial sites.\nTest the method in a pilot study at Scania in Södertälje, with the aim of making it applicable across Scania globally.\nEvaluate the results and provide recommendations on how the method can be used to monitor changes in green areas over time.\nIf time allows, develop simple and practical guide for using the selected method.\nThe ambition is to develop a method that is simple, transparent and practical to use at industrial sites.\nEducation/program/focus\nSuitable educational backgrounds include environmental science, environmental engineering, landscape architecture, ecology, urban planning or other relevant studies focusing on the environment, biodiversity or land use.\nThe applicant must be able to communicate in Swedish, both verbally and in writing.\nNumber of students: 1\nStart date: To be agreed\nDuration: 20 weeks, corresponding to 30 ECTS credits\nContanct persons and supervisors\nPer Möller, Group Environment, \nKarin Boström, Group Environment, \nApplication\nYour application must include a CV, personal letter and transcript of grades\nA background check might be conducted for this position. We are conducting interviews continuously and may close the recruitment earlier than the date specified.\nPublication date:\n11/04/2026 - 11/22/2026","description_format":"text","description_chars":4156,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"master","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"Swedish","level":"Upper-Intermediate (B2)","optional":false}]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":[],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-04T11:22:54Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":78,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.865,"p_room":0.9,"age_days":7,"expected_fill_days":19,"reasons":["conf:0","velocity","win:mid","comp:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-11-12T10:38:37Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/scania-thesis-worker-environmental-specialist","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/scania-thesis-worker-environmental-specialist.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-12T15:00:03Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":31246,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-13T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":445730},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=445730"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fscania-thesis-worker-environmental-specialist"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":2,"usd":0.2},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fscania-thesis-worker-environmental-specialist"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fscania-thesis-worker-environmental-specialist"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/scania-thesis-worker-environmental-specialist\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fscania-thesis-worker-environmental-specialist"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3739496}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"scania.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3739496},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
