• Develop sketches and visualizations.
• Write object descriptions and texts that explain the purpose and main function of individual investments. Propose and argue for new investments in public spaces, both verbally and in writing.
• Participate in physical planning and particularly consider issues related to public spaces, based on, among other things, the importance of meeting places, climate adaptation, greenery, well-designed living environments, and the importance of cost-effective operations.
• Assist project managers in the implementation of investment projects related to public spaces.
• Be able to lead or participate in the development of strategies for how Ronneby's public spaces should be developed.
