Advisor in Indirect Fire and Air Defense

We are looking for an advisor who wants to help drive our work forward within the department for indirect fire and air defense. With us, you will have the opportunity to use your skills where they truly make a difference and contribute to a stronger defense.

About the Position

As an advisor, you will play a central role in supporting, representing, and coordinating issues within the department for indirect fire and air defense. At the same time, you will contribute to strengthening our capability in strategic decision support and organizational development.

In this role, you will work in an advisory and investigative capacity within the management group's area of responsibility and represent the department in selected assignments. Your work will vary over time and include both strategic and operational tasks, such as:

• independently driving issues related to the department's mission
• serving as a point of contact with other authorities
• conducting analyses and investigations that serve as a basis for management's decisions
• providing input for considerations regarding the distribution of responsibilities between different organizational parts.

You will also be responsible for handling questions of varying nature, from everyday matters to more complex strategic assignments that arise within the department's and unit's ongoing work. Through your work, you will be an important part of ensuring that the department delivers high-quality support to management and contributes to the organization's continued development.

The position is located in Stockholm. Business travel occurs, both domestically and internationally.

About You

We are looking for someone who has a relevant degree for the position or has equivalent competence acquired in another way that we assess as comparable. You have relevant and current experience in conducting, presenting, and preparing qualified analyses and decision support materials. This also includes experience working with instructions and policies or similar within an authority. To succeed in this role, it is essential that you have knowledge of both the conditions for governance and coordination of authorities at a strategic level as well as the distribution of responsibilities and missions within the defense sector. The position requires a B driver's license and good knowledge of Swedish and English, both spoken and written.

It is an advantage if you have current and relevant experience working with support to management with materials for decisions, implementation of government governance within authorities, or inter-agency collaboration.

Personal qualities are of great importance to us. We welcome applicants with diverse backgrounds and experiences and are looking for someone who is self-driven and responsible. In a structured manner, you take initiative and drive processes forward. You have good judgment and are guided by goal- and result-oriented thinking in prioritization, planning, and action.
