We are changing with the world. Be part of our evolution.
The program is open to candidates from all over Brazil, seeks diverse talents and will value recent graduates from these states.
How it works
There is no age limit to apply and no previous professional experience is required. All vacancies are for on-site work in municipalities in Pará and Maranhão where Vale has operations.
Areas of Activity
The technical services area acts as a regional technical reference for the business units, being responsible for integrated business planning, mine planning and geosciences, tactical and operational geotechnics and hydrogeology, engineering management strategy, asset maintenance and laboratory operations.
The Base Metals project area is dedicated to the planning, development and implementation of new projects in areas such as research, development of equipment and solutions, risk management, sustainability, innovation, among others.
How it works
If the chosen person is allocated in another city or state, we offer relocation and mobility benefits (including dependents). Anyone interested doesn’t need to know anything about mining either, everything will be taught during the program.
Selection process
Information such as age, educational institution, address and marital status is withheld during the selection process in order to avoid value judgments on the part of those carrying out the assessment. Our selection process is based on your assessment of potential and performance.

We have a commitment to gender equality and, therefore, 50% of trainee vacancies will preferably be allocated to women. We also want to increase the representation of minority groups in leadership positions in our company and we encourage the participation of black women, black men, LGBTQIA+ and PCDs in the selection process.
We are present in 5 Brazilian states, spread over 4 different regions. Of course, we want to find potential talent across the entire national territory.
Among the group of trainees selected in 2022 in Brazil, 67% are female, 71% identified themselves as black (black or brown) and 49% are from the North and Northeast regions of Brazil. We want to increasingly value talents and encourage you, regardless of where you study or live, to be part of our transformation.
