About the job

At Byggföretagen, we work to improve the conditions for our member companies and the construction and civil engineering industry as a whole. Byggföretagen's core activities include advocacy and opinion formation, contract negotiation, as well as support, advice, and member care.

As an industry manager, you will primarily support colleagues and member companies in issues related to the industry's development in the northern region. The role involves close dialogue with the business community, authorities, municipalities, politicians, and other decision-makers. You will collaborate broadly, both internally and externally, and be responsible for planning and conducting information meetings, lectures, and various activities for our member companies.

You will work on our and our members' prioritized issues to make the construction and civil engineering industry more attractive, healthy, and safe. This includes, among other things, fair competition, the green transition, gender equality and diversity, preparedness, and safe workplaces.

The role also means that you are an important support in the regional advocacy work and contribute to creating good business conditions for our members – all within the framework of our goal of sustainable community building in close dialogue with the companies.

To succeed in the role, it is important that you have a structured working method, can express yourself easily in speech and writing, and are good at building networks and maintaining good relationships.

We highly value personal qualities and previous assignments, as well as a relevant education in, for example, community building, communication, or political science.

As a future employee, it is also important that you can identify with the organization's values of joy, engagement, and professionalism. Please read more about our culture and values here.
