Are you an experienced communicator who wants to work on initiatives that actually make a difference and do it alongside engaged, curious, and pretty cool people? Then this could be the assignment for you!

What you will do

You will work broadly with communication, both strategically and operationally. One moment you will analyze needs, discuss choices, and priorities. The next moment you will be producing content in text, image, or video and hitting publish.

You will work with external communication towards two target groups, housing seekers and landlords. We do most things ourselves, in-house. This means you will be involved all the way, from idea and concept to finished material. Do you like to see the results of your work? Good. So do we. Internal communication is also an important part of the job. You will support managers, the management team, and colleagues with both advice and production, sometimes as a sounding board, sometimes as a project leader, and sometimes as the one who just solves what needs to be solved.

Who we think you are

You have an academic education in media and communication science or another education that we assess as equivalent. You are confident in the communication craft and have worked strategically and operationally for at least five years in similar assignments, but you are not done learning. You are familiar with the tools, structured, and comfortable taking responsibility. You can explain complex things in a way that different target groups actually understand, and you do it without complicating matters.

As a person, you are curious, unpretentious, and easy to collaborate with. You are confident in sharing ideas and recommendations and take your own initiatives. You are someone who contributes to both results and atmosphere. Experience from municipal or other public operations is a plus, but the most important thing is that you enjoy the assignment and context.
