We strive to ensure that all residents of Värmdö can live a rich and free life. We want to be the ones who enable the dream of a vibrant and secure environment for homes, families, and businesses.

Community Building Office

Within our office, there are approximately 225 employees who together drive sustainable community development based on the political leadership's goals and vision, Värmdö - an archipelago of opportunities. The office's responsibilities include physical planning of land and water, nature and cultural heritage, infrastructure, and mobility. We build and manage roads, public spaces, and community properties.

Our working method is characterized by daily and effective collaboration where we work based on a project-oriented approach. We achieve good results through close cooperation with many operations within the municipality.

The Early Stages Unit (from 2026-01-01, the Land and Development Unit) is responsible for the municipality's land holdings and implementation issues in the detailed planning and expansion phases. This means that we handle technical, economic, and property legal issues, negotiate with construction actors, and carry out land allocations. Furthermore, we are responsible for managing and developing the municipality's land holdings by buying, selling, and leasing municipal land. We work project-oriented and have close cooperation with other operations within the municipality.

In the role of project manager for development, you are a development engineer in our community building projects. You will monitor implementation issues and be responsible for negotiations and contract writing with construction actors, property owners, and authorities within the framework of our community building projects. The role also means that you will support our land management organization in land surveying-related issues related to the municipality's land ownership.

You work closely – often in project form – with, among others, planning architects, water engineers, landscape architects, ecologists, municipal antiquarians, project controllers, and traffic engineers, as well as in dialogue with developers and contractors. Thus, an important part of the role is to create and maintain good collaboration forms between the municipality's various competencies and external parties.

We consider it meritorious if you have worked with municipal development projects and can assess the technical and economic conditions of projects from a municipal holistic perspective, that you have experience working in a politically governed organization, and that you have worked on implementing land acquisitions.

As a person, you are curious, meticulous, and have a developing work approach with a genuine interest in community building and sustainable development. You are structured and analytical, work independently, and take great responsibility for your tasks.

This is an outward-facing role with external and internal contact points, which requires good communicative and pedagogical skills. We have good cooperation within the unit with a willingness to work together towards the organization's goals, therefore we place great emphasis on your personal qualities.

For this position, presenting a valid extract from the police criminal record is a prerequisite for employment.

Värmdö municipality offers a wellness allowance, SL card against net salary deduction, vacation exchange for extra days off, and much more. We also actively work to create health-promoting workplaces with a good working environment and apply smoke-free working hours.
