Make a Difference with Us

As a project economist at Riksbyggen, you have an important and varied role within the renovation business.

You will work closely with approximately 90 project managers in renovation projects and support them in financial matters in the projects, such as forecasting and follow-up.

As a project economist, you proactively monitor the project's finances and manage its balance and income statements. You prepare documentation for invoicing, develop key figures and reports, and follow up and finalize projects. You will also monthly reconcile the market area's balance and progressive results and report to relevant decision-makers. You will also conduct analyses and support managers in their decisions with your understanding and insight into the project's finances. Occasionally, you will also handle questions related to VAT, financing, and tax issues, even if they are not part of your daily tasks.

You will work closely with your nearest colleague, also a project economist, and develop the financial process within your business area, occasionally working on specific development projects depending on the needs of the business. You will also participate in various training sessions on project economics within Riksbyggen. You report to the Business Manager for Renovation.

Contribute with Your Skills and Engagement
