Vacant job

Building and maintaining roads and infrastructure is significant. Contributing to societal development is even greater. With us, you get to do both. We are currently looking for a site manager for small construction projects at our establishment in Kalmar. At Svevia, we combine the camaraderie and team spirit of a small company with the stability of a large corporation. Here, you have the opportunity to develop as a road specialist - with dedication, cooperation, and responsibility.

Your role as a site manager

Furthermore, you support the site manager in the daily work with tasks such as customer contact, production control, financial monitoring, and invoicing.

The role of a site manager includes both administrative work in the office and outdoor work. The role offers significant personal responsibility and the freedom to independently plan and execute your projects.

The position is full-time. You will be based at our establishment in Kalmar and report to the site manager. At Svevia, we apply individual salary setting. Here, you become part of a cheerful and dedicated team that works well together. You also have the opportunity to combine operational responsibility with strategic planning, while ensuring that your projects achieve set goals with high customer satisfaction.

• Some form of experience in previous construction work
• Good computer skills and interest in digital work methods and processes
• Good knowledge of Swedish in speech and writing

We see it as a merit if you have experience from a managerial position/other responsible role in a similar industry such as road and construction work or maintenance work.

Your personality is important to us! As a person, you are solution-oriented and adaptable, with the ability to handle different types of people in your environment. You have a clear customer perspective and see yourself as a secure and trustworthy team player who has the ability to create good collaborations with both customers and colleagues. In the role of a site manager, it is also important that you enjoy administrative work involving structure and order, while having the ability to prioritize in a daily life where the pace can change rapidly.

With us, you contribute to a larger whole. We plow for the family on their way to the mountains. We ensure that the business community's goods transport arrives and make sure that streets, squares, and parks are clean and tidy. Additionally, we protect lives on the road through our traffic management offering.
