Technical Information Coordinator at VA SYD

Do you want to be part of VA SYD's digitalization journey and ensure that the technical facility information meets the required levels from project to management? VA SYD and the BIM and GIS unit are currently looking for two individuals in technical information management and information coordination.

Would you like a varied job with many contact points across several disciplines and engaged colleagues? Then you could be one of our new technical information coordinators!

Your upcoming role

The main tasks are to support VA SYD's technical project operations with information coordination to ensure good technical management. You will work to ensure that our project procurements follow established project guidelines and the agreed reference designation system in our requirement management portal. The work also involves supporting VA SYD's facility owners in the information management of the maintenance process and assisting in VA SYD's transition from analog to digital information management.

Tasks and responsibilities in the role:

• You will act as support and be the contact point between project managers, management, and suppliers.
• You are responsible for ensuring that information is managed in a structured manner according to applicable processes and systems and ensuring the information flow.
• You review information deliveries to ensure that contractors' deliveries meet the requirements that have been procured.
• You guide colleagues during changes with the perspective that the information should be accurate, relevant, accessible, secure, and traceable.
• Together with colleagues, you ensure that technical information deliveries meet VA SYD's expectations.

VA SYD invests in digitalization and technical information management. The BIM and GIS unit drives the development and management of VA SYD's systems for technical facility information and GIS. The unit currently consists of 11 employees distributed among documentation engineers, development engineers, cartographers, and several consultants and is now expanding with two positions. The unit is located within the Technology and Security department, which is responsible for delivering operational support to management and operations. The department coordinates, leads, and develops VA SYD's work in digitalization, security, technical standards, automation, and system and information management.

We offer

You will join a workplace with a good community and pride in our socially important mission, where you are given a lot of responsibility and the opportunity to influence both your work and your own professional development. We care about our employees and focus on participation and development as well as a balance between work and leisure, offering among other things wellness time, wellness grants, and the possibility of vacation day conversion. We actively work to ensure that VA SYD is perceived as a very good workplace by our employees.

Who are you?

The role requires good communication and collaboration skills as you will have contact with colleagues within VA SYD's various operations, focusing on ensuring that VA SYD's projects receive support in information coordination. At the same time, you are part of a developing organization, so you will also participate in our change work. You enjoy working independently and are flexible in adapting and delivering as a team member when needed. You easily absorb new knowledge and are motivated to develop work methods. For you, it is natural to work according to our environmental identity and our core values of quality, commitment, and responsiveness. You have good knowledge of Swedish in both spoken and written form.

Your experiences

VA SYD is currently looking for two new employees, where one position requires several years of experience working with technical information in project form or management, for example as a documentation manager, technical communicator, technical coordinator, or engineer responsible for technical documentation. The other position is suitable for someone new to the role or with only a few years of experience.

Both roles require good technical understanding, good structure, and:

• technical university education or equivalent education.
• experience in technical information management within the water, process, construction, or energy industries (for the junior role, this is an advantage).
• very good computer skills and experience with information management systems and knowledge of well-known 2D/3D CAD programs; experience working with IFC is an advantage.
• experience with technical standards and specifically naming systems according to ISO standard 81346 and building information modeling according to ISO standard 19650 is an advantage.
