Do you want to help strengthen Sweden's defense capability?

The Swedish Armed Forces are in strong growth, and so is the Naval Staff.

About the department

As a coordinator for technical information requirements, ILS coordinator, you are part of the Project Support Detail within the Navy's Materiel Office in the Naval Staff. The Navy's Materiel Office supports responsible managers in creating conditions for the material to be available, system-worthy, and safe.

Main responsibilities

As an ILS coordinator, you will be involved in our material projects from the very beginning. You primarily support our technical system leaders by engaging and coordinating the specialists needed for requirements specification and review of conditions for effective operation and maintenance of the material throughout its lifecycle. Our projects are conducted in close collaboration with the Swedish Defence Materiel Administration (FMV), and your role will be to create and maintain the Navy's internal working groups, other stakeholders within the Armed Forces, and to collaborate and maintain close contact with the project team and ILS responsible within FMV. The ILS work is based on the established routines and processes of the Armed Forces, which are then translated into practical work. The requirements specification includes, among other things, spare parts management, basic and maintenance data, systems security, logistics, technical documentation, and training.

REQUIREMENTS

To enjoy the role of ILS coordinator, you should have a technical interest, preferably in the marine area, a good analytical ability, and be quality-conscious. In your work, you will have many points of contact both within the authority and with other authorities and the civil industry, which means you need to be able to collaborate, cooperate, and communicate easily with others. Much collaboration occurs in meeting form, either through physical meetings or via Skype. The Naval Staff offers training that provides you with deeper knowledge in the ILS area. Therefore, you need to be development-oriented and want to stay updated in your area of responsibility.

Information about the Armed Forces and the recruiting unit:

The Armed Forces are undergoing extensive development work to build a stronger defense against the backdrop of a deteriorating security situation and a new defense policy focus on national defense. Leadership for a stronger defense aims to increase robustness, simplify command and obedience relationships, and through decentralization of mandates and responsibilities increase the conditions for mission tactics.
As part of this work, the Armed Forces have organized a Naval Staff for the leadership of the Naval units. The Naval Staff is established at Muskö in Haninge municipality.

In the Armed Forces, there is a strong value base built on openness, results, and responsibility. Professional development and personal health are valued and encouraged. There are good opportunities for internal career mobility, wellness, and a good balance between work and private life.

Employment with us means placement in a security class. Usually, Swedish citizenship is required.
Security screening with a background check will be conducted before employment according to Chapter 3 of the Security Protection Act. Employment also includes an obligation to be placed in wartime. The implications of this vary depending on the type of position.

When applying for employment, a CV and personal letter should be attached. If you proceed in the employment process, certified copies of grades and certificates must always be presented.

Calls from external recruitment companies and salespeople are not welcome.
