JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

• The Assignment

  The position of building permit officer with coordination responsibility consists of two parts. As a building permit officer, you work service-oriented, legally secure, and promptly with matters within the Planning and Building Act (PBL). The coordinating part means that you drive structure, prioritization, and development within the building permit area, serve as support in assessments and planning, and participate in the management-wide work with governing documents and development issues.

• Your Tasks as a Building Permit Officer

  You will process permit and notification matters according to PBL, such as building permits, preliminary decisions, technical consultations, inspections, and advice. Strand protection matters are also included. In the role, you will have ongoing contact with builders, the public, consultants, other authorities, and lawyers. The management has particularly focused on supervision according to PBL in recent years, and you will be an important part of continuing this work. Many decisions are made by delegation, but you will also be a presenter in the building and environmental committee.

• Your Coordination Responsibility

  As a coordinator, you are responsible for developing and maintaining a good structure within the PBL area, for example through routines, templates, e-services, and forms. The role also involves being a management support in operational planning and a support for assessment and prioritization for the other building permit officer. The work also includes driving internal quality and development processes primarily within the PBL area but sometimes also for the entire management and municipality.

• Working Method

  The role involves many contacts with the public and businesses where you provide guidance based on applicable legislation. The work is independent but is based on a legally oriented working method with joint evaluations and assessments. You contribute to the strength of the group by sharing your knowledge and experience.

• We Offer

  We offer a stimulating and developing job with great personal responsibility and many points of contact both within and outside the organization.
