The future of infrastructure begins with smart decisions in early stages – and at WSP Rail, you will play a key role in that process. We gather expertise from all disciplines and work together to create sustainable solutions. We are now looking for you who want to contribute with your experience as an investigator/planning coordinator and become part of a team that makes a difference.

About WSP Rail WSP Rail is a national subsector within WSP consisting of approximately 200 employees represented throughout Sweden, and globally we are over 7,000 within Rail & Transit. Within the Rail subsector, we have expertise represented across all disciplines such as land, track, electrical power, overhead lines, signaling, telecommunications, channelization, traffic, capacity, and early stages. All employees, both nationally and internationally, connect their expertise by working on large multidisciplinary as well as smaller assignments.

Some examples of assignments we work on in early stages include the location investigation for Nobelbanan, Norrbotniabanan, the location investigation for Maria-Helsingborg, Four Tracks Uppsala, Mälarbanan, and the expansion of the Stockholm subway, as well as many smaller assignments. We want to grow and are looking for our next investigator/planning coordinator!

About the role In the role of an experienced investigator/planning coordinator, you will be responsible for coordinating the planning process, where you will act as an advisor and support in the planning process for rail and in matters concerning the Railway Construction Act. For those with experience and vision, we offer the opportunity to act as project manager where you are expected to take a proactive approach in your leadership by maintaining close dialogue and collaboration with the client while being responsible for the progress, challenges, and opportunities of the assignment. You will be responsible for the execution of the entire assignment by understanding, leading, and steering the project based on given frameworks such as contract terms, scope, timeline, budget, requirements, sustainability, and work environment.

In the project manager role, you work to create conditions for your colleagues in the assignment so they can do their best work while developing and enjoying their jobs.

Did you know that you can become a co-owner of WSP through our global stock program – where we as an employer favorably increase your ownership share when you invest? That’s how we grow together!

Qualifications We are looking for someone with several years of professional experience in investigation and planning coordination in railway assignments. We see that you have a degree from a relevant technical university or other education/experience that can be assessed as equivalent, and that you are well-versed in the Railway Construction Act.

It is an advantage if you have been a project manager/design manager in the railway planning phase.
