About the job

The position of traffic planner focusing on large infrastructure projects means working at a strategic level to find synergies as well as challenges between the major infrastructure projects in the municipality. This aims to create a holistic view both in the short term and in the long term with the goal of increasing efficiency and creating conditions for planning and implementation. The role aims to create networks between ongoing projects, which means that the ability to quickly analyze and draw conclusions from relevant information in complex contexts is important. It is also crucial to understand how the traffic system works and to be able to grasp long-term solutions, as well as needs during phased expansions. It may also be relevant to initiate investigations and feasibility studies to structure the planning for the municipality's collective infrastructure projects, both internally and with external parties.

Great focus will be placed on the municipality's two regional city centers, Flemingsberg and Kungens kurva. The majority of the role involves coordination and networking, but it may also be relevant to be a project or assignment leader for one of the municipality's projects or investigations.

The role reports not only to the immediate manager but also to the community building department's steering group and relevant project owners. The work will be done closely with project managers and project owners and in dialogue with the region, the Swedish Transport Administration, and neighboring municipalities.

The major infrastructure projects currently underway in the municipality are Spårväg syd (part of the Sweden Negotiation), Tvärförbindelse Södertörn, traffic junction Högskolan, and Bytespunkt Flemingsberg, including planning for a lowering of the state road 226. Furthermore, work is ongoing with planning and implementation in some of the municipality's development areas such as Flemingsberg, Loviseberg, Kungens kurva, Vårby, Skogås, and Trångsund.

You also have good knowledge of national and regional transport infrastructure planning. Good knowledge of Swedish, both spoken and written, as well as good computer and system skills are a given.
