The development office is responsible for preparing, planning, and following up on the long-term development plan and development portfolio. The unit is also responsible for planning and monitoring the renewal of the Swedish Companies Registration Office's systems from a holistic and portfolio perspective, as well as driving and leading the agency's business architecture as part of its architectural governance.

The place of employment is Sundsvall or as agreed. We offer remote work, but you are expected to be regularly present at the office in Sundsvall.

The work includes both internal agency activities and cross-agency activities, which may involve some travel.
