Welcome to a New Future at Riksbyggen!
Riksbyggen is a cooperative company, which means we are member-owned and operate according to our four core values: Innovation, Security, Collaboration, and Sustainability.
We develop sustainable living environments by both creating new homes and managing properties. As one of Sweden's largest players in both housing development and property management, we serve housing cooperatives, businesses, and public property owners. Regardless of your interests or goals, you are always welcome with us. We are now looking for employees who want to help take care of our customers' gardens and outdoor environments during the growing season of 2026.
With Us, You Make a Difference
We perform contractual garden maintenance for housing cooperatives in Norrköping and surrounding areas, and we also actively work to develop our customers' green environments. The gardening team focuses on pure gardening maintenance and care of grass areas.
Daily tasks include, among other things, weeding planting areas, weed control on hard surfaces using various methods, pruning, hedge trimming, tying climbing plants, and edging. For some of our customers, we handle planting and care of seasonal flowers throughout the year. We also ensure to highlight and communicate the development potential we see to our customers, thus creating varied and enjoyable tasks while delivering added value to the customer.
The work as a seasonal gardener is varied and social. You meet our customers and contribute to a beautiful and pleasant living environment.
You work in a team, planning your days together and taking your own initiatives – you have great freedom under responsibility. Regardless of the weather, you work outdoors and stay physically active all day. The job includes driving vehicles with trailers and everything that entails.
The mobile phone is an important work tool. It is where we communicate and where you keep track of your email, manage time reporting, and similar tasks.
You Contribute with Your Skills and Engagement
We are looking for someone who is engaged, responsible, and caring. You have a strong interest in plants and green area maintenance or a curiosity and interest in learning. You enjoy planning your own work, are flexible, and solution-oriented.
Since you work in a team, it is essential that you enjoy collaborating, are unpretentious, and contribute to creating a safe and welcoming atmosphere in the workgroup. It is also important that you have the ability to create comfort and trust in your interactions with the residents of the housing cooperatives. You are practically oriented and enjoy being active.
Education and previous experience are meritorious but not required; the most important thing is that we find the right person. A driver's license for a manual transmission is a requirement.
The season runs from the end of March/beginning of April until the end of September. You will be based at our office in Norrköping, but you may work throughout the entire market area.
