Job Responsibilities

As a land negotiator, you are a specialist in land access issues in the Swedish Transport Administration's road and railway projects within the Four Tracks Uppsala program. You are the link between the Swedish Transport Administration and individual landowners, municipalities, authorities, and other stakeholders.

The land negotiator works in all phases of the projects, from planning to completed construction. This, along with the different characteristics of the projects, means that the work has a wide scope and that the issues vary. Some examples of tasks that you perform independently and in collaboration with your colleagues:

• Assess and negotiate compensation for encroachments and damages
• Draft property law agreements
• Contact affected property owners, both physically and digitally
• Represent the Swedish Transport Administration in land surveying proceedings and other authority contacts

Within the land negotiator group, we help each other develop, as everyone contributes with their strengths and experiences. We care about a learning organization with the opportunity to drive and participate in continuous development work.

For us, it is obvious that you should get a good start to succeed in the role, and as a newly hired land negotiator, you will participate in our internal training package.

The position may involve work outside office hours as well as travel.

Qualifications

Who are you?

To thrive and succeed in the land negotiator role, we expect you to be a communicative person, skilled both in listening and in conveying messages in an understandable way. Since the role involves extensive contacts, we emphasize the importance of establishing trusting relationships in external collaborations, as well as being flexible and relationship-oriented with your colleagues to contribute to a positive work environment. The tasks include, in addition to teamwork, also independent work, which means that you need to have the ability to take your own initiatives. It is also important that you work in a structured and meticulous manner to ensure the quality of your work. Analytical ability and problem-solving skills are also necessary in the role, and we view positively that you possess these skills.

We are looking for someone who has:

• A university or college degree of at least 180 credits (120 ECTS) in land surveying/urban development or a law degree with a focus on property law, or alternatively, another university or college degree of at least 180 credits (120 ECTS) combined with work experience that we consider equivalent
• Current and relevant work experience in property law issues
• Good ability to express yourself in Swedish, both orally and in writing
• A driver's license for passenger cars
