About the position

As a project manager, you will be responsible for the implementation of investment projects within hydropower. The projects mainly involve modernization and upgrading of existing facilities with a focus on electrical and automation systems.

You will lead projects throughout their lifecycle – from feasibility studies and technical requirements to implementation, follow-up, and supplier dialogue. The work is carried out in close collaboration with technical experts, other project managers, project sponsors, and support functions such as purchasing and finance. As a project manager, you are responsible for planning, progress, coordination, and ensuring delivery according to set goals.

The size and complexity of the projects vary. They can involve smaller upgrades, such as HMI or relay protection replacements, to larger investment projects where entire electrical and control systems are replaced. Often, you will manage several projects in parallel, with a balanced mix of more extensive and simpler assignments. Travel is part of the job and is planned according to the needs of the projects, focusing on presence at the site during critical moments.

You will be part of an experienced project management team where knowledge exchange, collaboration, and support are a natural part of everyday life. The role suits you who want to combine technical understanding with leadership and who enjoys taking responsibility in complex technical environments.

Your qualifications
  • University degree or master's degree in a relevant technical field

  • Several years of work experience as a project manager, technical specialist, or designer

  • Experience from electrical, power, and/or automation projects

  • Good knowledge of Swedish and English, both spoken and written

The role also suits you who have worked as a leading designer or technical specialist and want to take the next step towards project management. To succeed, you need to be self-driven, have a clear drive, and enjoy a role with many contact points. You need to be able to see the big picture, prioritize correctly, and manage changes when the conditions in the projects change.

As a person, you collaborate easily with others, have a strong focus on safety, and a high ambition to deliver results with quality and structure.
