Building Permit Officer at the Community Building Administration

The Community Building Administration offers creative conversations, a fast-paced environment, solution-focused working methods, and gives you the opportunity to drive and participate in changing community building processes. We are a collaborative administration between Hällefors, Lindesberg, Ljusnarsberg, and Nora municipalities with a broad mandate within the municipalities' community building processes.

The administration consists of three main areas of operation: technical operations, planning and projects, and building and environment.

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

As a building permit officer with us, you will be an important part of the unit, where you will work with applications and notifications according to the Planning and Building Act (PBL). The role includes investigating cases, engaging in dialogue with relevant parties, and making decisions. You will write service memos and present cases before the Building and Environmental Committee. We offer an independent role where you take responsibility for your tasks while having close collaboration with engaged colleagues who are happy to share knowledge and support each other.

Your work involves many contacts with municipal residents, colleagues from other administrations, and external authorities. The role also includes handling and presenting supervision cases.

QUALIFICATIONS

We are looking for someone with several years of experience in building permit processing and who is well-versed in the Planning and Building Act (PBL). You either have a building permit officer education, legal education in the field, another higher education in community building, or equivalent competence that is deemed comparable by the employer. It is an advantage if you have also worked with supervision issues previously.

To thrive and succeed in the role, you are used to working independently to drive and take responsibility for your own cases, while also having good administrative skills and can structure your work effectively. You are receptive, collaborative, and enjoy working in a team where you contribute your expertise and a solution-focused approach. Your communication skills are strong, and you express yourself clearly and pedagogically, both verbally and in writing. We particularly value your ability to see the big picture, consider different perspectives, and make well-founded decisions.

A B driver's license is a requirement for the position. We are looking for someone who, with a flexible and engaged approach, wants to contribute to the development of the operation and improved processes.
