Vacant job

1 position(s).

Do you want to make a societal impact and contribute to Sweden's independence in the world? We are looking for a Unit Manager with broad competence. At FRA, every task is part of something bigger. If you are the one we are looking for, we can offer a varied job in a knowledge-intensive environment where you get to make a difference every day.

Your Assignment

As Unit Manager at the Workplace Unit, you will belong to the Property Office. The office has overall responsibility for the premises and properties used by the agency.

Starting from this premise, you set the direction for how our workplaces develop – from the first idea to a finished environment. You drive the development, adaptation, and design of inspiring and functional workplaces where the business can grow and people thrive. This includes a clear focus on business development, where you ensure the workplace design aligns with the organization's goals and future direction. At the same time, you lead the unit forward in daily operations: you prioritize, follow up, and take clear responsibility for results, employees, recruitment of new staff, and a sustainable work environment.

You take this leadership further into a broader overall responsibility for our premises. Here, you move seamlessly between the strategic and the operational – from procurement and management of support systems and service agreements to relocation coordination and long-term premises planning. You stay ahead, develop forecasts, and drive the development of our workplaces both in the short and long term. In forums related to workplace issues, you become a natural focal point, and in the agency's property projects, you step in early to ensure that the business needs shape the solutions. In addition, you may handle and distribute incoming premises cases and be responsible for the agency's art collection.

You are part of the office's management group, and the role involves many contact surfaces both internally within the agency and externally with partners. Domestic travel occurs.

Your Qualifications

We are looking for someone who has:

• A high school diploma in property, logistics, or other education we assess as equivalent
• Documented experience of personnel responsibility, for example in roles such as team leader or project manager
• Documented experience of business development
• Experience of working with physical work environment and workplace design
• Very good knowledge of the MS Office package, primarily Excel and PowerPoint
• Good knowledge of Swedish, both in speech and writing

We consider it meritorious if you have:

• Education in business development (Lean, Six Sigma)
• Education in change management and change leadership
• Knowledge/awareness of cognitive ergonomics
• Experience of working within a state (political) organization
• Knowledge in CAD and database management
• Good knowledge of English, both in speech and writing

Your Personality

We are looking for someone with the following characteristics:

• Independence - You have the courage to act according to your own convictions.
• Collaboration - You work well with other people. You relate to them in a listening and smooth way. You listen, communicate, and resolve conflicts in a constructive manner.
• Strategic - You think strategically and have a broad perspective on issues. You see the long-term significance and further consequences of matters and adapt your actions accordingly.
• Structured - You plan, organize, and prioritize work effectively. You set and keep timeframes.
