The organization is characterized by community and collaboration. You will be part of a strong community where we support each other, share knowledge, and have fun together. At the same time, we work on something that really matters.

This brings both pride and meaning to the work.

In your role, you will have many contact points both internally and externally, and we work together with deadlines and set goals. We offer a developing and meaningful job in a large organization with good resources.

Our Offer:

• An important strategic community assignment
• An organization with engaged colleagues, clear political direction, and good resources.
• Vacation exchange, salary exchange for pension, benefit bicycle.
• Wellness allowance and free access to the municipality's swimming pool and outdoor baths.

You have at least 5 years of relevant work experience in water and wastewater strategy, and it is advantageous if you have previously worked with water and stormwater investigations.

As a person, you are driven, energetic, and have a great interest in your technical field. You enjoy working towards set goals and deadlines. Working both independently and in a team is a given for you.

You should have good communication and collaboration skills, be creative, and be able to express yourself well in Swedish, both verbally and in writing. Our internal and external contacts are based on cooperation and good relationships, which is why we place great importance on your personal qualities.
