Vacant job

Do you want to lead urban development projects that are truly visible and impact the city's growth? With us, you have the chance to help build the future of Linköping – a city in strong growth where you will have significant responsibility, varied projects, and the opportunity to both broaden and deepen your skills.

Your responsibilities

With us, you will lead the expansion of public land in line with Linköping's growing need for new housing, business areas, and sustainable investments. The projects are technically and economically complex with varying sizes and contents – from new neighborhoods, streets, and parks to renovations of existing urban environments.

You will be responsible for the entire process and work with everything from preliminary planning to procurement, implementation, and handover. This includes responsibility for monitoring time, budget, and quality, which involves planning and coordinating resources, procuring consultants and contractors, and ensuring that project goals are met. The work is done in close collaboration with colleagues and external stakeholders. You will also contribute to the work with technical solutions and calculations in early planning stages and participate in the development of our working methods.

This is a position for you who want a broad responsibility, enjoy leading complex projects, and want to contribute to building a sustainable and attractive Linköping.

Your workplace

The Investment Projects unit within the Department of Economy and Management is tasked with project managing the expansion of public land and space in Linköping Municipality, according to established plans for the municipality's expansion of new housing and business areas as well as investments. Project and investigation assignments primarily come from the department's land and development operations as well as urban environment activities.

With us, you will become part of an engaged and knowledgeable group with eleven project manager colleagues. Our unit is also supported by a geotechnician and a controller. In addition to a fun job and great colleagues, we also offer a flexible work environment focused on development, collaboration, and a healthy balance between work and private life.

Who we are looking for

We are looking for someone with a university degree in civil engineering with a focus on road and water, or similar relevant work experience in the field. Training in construction site safety coordination (Bas-P, Bas-U) is an advantage. You have good knowledge and experience of AMA Construction and MER, as well as contract law and industry regulations, such as AB 04, ABT 06, and AMA AF.

It is advantageous if you have experience in project management, KMA (quality, environment, work environment), technology and installation, as well as law and economics related to land and construction projects. It is also advantageous if you have experience in roles such as construction manager or design manager. You are accustomed to leading meetings and handling contract issues, notifications, and changes. You have basic knowledge in geotechnics and experience with water and sewage solutions and remediation of contaminated land.

You are an engaged and driven person who takes responsibility for your projects and ensures they are carried out with high quality, on time, and within budget. You work in a structured manner, have an easy time understanding complex issues, and take the initiative to drive the work forward. At the same time, you have good collaboration skills where you thrive in cooperation with others, listen to different perspectives, and create engagement in the project group. Your way of communicating is a success factor for creating both progress and participation. For you, it is a given to share knowledge, and you appreciate a daily routine where you learn from each other. You show great commitment, a positive attitude, and contribute to the team's good collaboration.
