Temporary Position - Sales Manager at Riksbyggen Property Management Market Area North/Umeå/Middle Norrland

Are you curious about working as a sales manager and want to join our team that works with new customer sales? Now you have the opportunity. We are looking for a temporary position during a parental leave of about 14 months starting from March 1, 2026.

We are looking for someone who wants to work as a salesperson with a business-oriented approach and contribute to Riksbyggen's continued success. Are you attracted to selling a wide portfolio of property services to both housing associations and commercial property owners? Then this could be the job for you.

What Will You Do?

As a Sales Manager, you will be responsible for the overall sales of property services within the Business Area of Property Management.

In this role, you will have your own budget and result responsibility and will be responsible for planning, leading, and executing new customer sales of services within Property Management. The Sales Manager works closely with area managers and customer group managers in the local market areas.

The customers are housing associations and commercial property owners. Your task is to find new customers where you will engage in customer outreach, quotations, business calculations, and contract signing. You will also work with inquiries that continuously come to Riksbyggen.

Your tasks include setting relevant sales targets, executing and reporting new customer sales, establishing an annual local sales and marketing plan, and planning and executing local marketing activities (e.g., fairs and local participation in central campaigns). You will be responsible for launching new products and services within your geographical area. The assignment will operate in the northern area.

You will report to the Sales Manager within Property Management. The position is based in Umeå, Luleå, or Skellefteå. Your geographical area of responsibility includes Umeå, Luleå, Skellefteå, Sundsvall, and Östersund.

Who Are You?

We are looking for someone who believes that sales and long-term customer relationships are a driving factor and has good experience in conducting and driving contract negotiations. We prefer that you have experience from the construction and property industry, but you may also have worked in another industry with similar service delivery. If you have previous experience with AFF agreements or tender work for the public market, we consider that an advantage.

We would like you to have relevant experience in marketing/sales or have gained equivalent experience through many years of work experience. It is important that you have good knowledge of finance and calculations as you will be responsible for profitability calculations and pricing of services.

As a person, you are trustworthy, engaged, and responsible, and you work independently, with great commitment and drive. At the same time, you are a team player who can collaborate with and support colleagues in the customer group. You have a business-oriented mindset, are good at identifying and meeting customer needs, and work results-oriented towards set goals. Your Swedish language skills are very good, and you communicate clearly, both verbally and in writing.
