How do we ensure that technical systems in road and railway facilities operate 24/7, year-round? This requires project managers who can combine strong collaboration skills with technical understanding, structure, and a clear drive forward. Do you want to become part of our team?
ResponsibilitiesThe Infrastructure Systems Project Unit is one of six project units within the West Maintenance District. The unit is responsible for technical systems related to roads and drives projects to continuously maintain, manage the lifecycle of, and develop existing equipment. In the near future, technical systems in railway facilities will also be included, which is why we are now expanding our team.
As a project manager, your tasks will include, for example:

- responsible for developing business plans and forecasting

- contributing to and supporting the organization in the design of maintenance for the received facility (initially the central station, followed by the entire West Link)
As a project manager, you will work on projects focusing on technical control and monitoring systems for railways, although other types of technical systems may also fall within your area of responsibility. On this unit, we collaborate closely to maintain the availability of our facilities. This means that you will both lead your own projects and, when necessary, provide a supportive function to your colleagues. You have economic responsibility for the projects and continuously monitor the operations, which includes managing procured contractors and suppliers, as well as planning, budgeting, and conducting procurements.

The project manager role also involves a wide range of contact surfaces, both internally and externally, which in turn requires good communication, anchoring, and a curious approach.
We are looking for you who have:
