The work involves planning, conducting, and concluding supervisory assignments, ensuring that all relevant aspects are reviewed.

Personal Attributes

We are looking for someone who is self-sufficient, meticulous, and responsible.

You convey complex information clearly and pedagogically, both orally and in writing, allowing you to communicate effectively with different target groups. You have good collaboration skills and enjoy working together with others, both internally and with external actors.

We also place great importance on your awareness of the demands for integrity, impartiality, and objectivity that come with working in a government authority.
