You belong to the Planning and Traffic unit within the Urban Environment department. You will be part of a working group of six people within the supervision area, while also collaborating closely with many expert colleagues at the Environmental Administration. In the group, we work closely together and have a pleasant atmosphere where we support each other regarding both substantive issues and workload. The group conducts supervision on road and rail traffic, development projects, and aviation, and belongs to a unit that also works with environmental issues in urban planning. We are part of a department where everyone works with environmental issues related to urban development in some form. It is an inspiring environment with many knowledgeable and friendly colleagues.
