Do you want to become part of our future-oriented municipality?

In Munkfors Municipality, people—both native-born and newcomers—live and unite in a community that provides a safe and pleasant living environment with municipal services focused on all citizens. Munkfors is the small municipality that excels at being small, leveraging the advantages of small-scale operations now and in the future. Munkfors Municipality has a strong belief in the future, drive, and commitment that moves us forward. Our vision rests on four value areas that are particularly important for the development of Munkfors Municipality: quality of life, excellence in being small, accessibility, and the "Munkfors spirit." Together, they form our common platform.

Description

As an Administrative Officer at the Technical Unit, you are a key person with a coordinating function, contributing to maintaining high quality and efficiency within the unit. The Technical Unit works to create a functional everyday life for the municipality's residents through the operation and maintenance of green areas, traffic facilities, buildings, streets, and roads.

We are now looking for an employee who will primarily work with issues related to urban planning, climate adaptation, environment, and land matters. You will be involved in both development work and ongoing processes. Here, you will meet a committed team with a helpful and welcoming culture, where we value both laughter and a strong commitment to our mission.

The position involves contact with colleagues, citizens, landowners, politicians, businesses, and other actors, making the job varied and social.

We offer a workplace with short decision-making paths and ample opportunity to influence. Here, you will both utilize your skills and develop in your role.

Here you will work with socially important issues and be an important part of our joint development. Every employee plays a significant role in our work to be an attractive and sustainable municipality.

Responsibilities

The role of Administrative Officer is broad and includes both strategic and practical work. It involves keeping processes together, supporting operations, and contributing to the development of our working methods.

The assignments vary in scope and complexity, and you will work both independently and together with colleagues in different configurations.

Qualifications

We are looking for you who have an academic education relevant to the assignment or substantial experience in advanced administrative work.

You have previous experience in administration and thrive in a role where structure, collaboration, and problem-solving are central. Experience from a politically governed organization is meritorious. It is also meritorious if you have experience in strategic urban planning and infrastructure or insight into the urban planning process and related issues.

You have the ability to see what needs to be done and take initiative. The role requires that you can handle multiple issues simultaneously and quickly adapt when conditions change. You are meticulous, organized, and have a desire to develop both yourself and the working methods.

We are looking for you who are service-oriented and enjoy working in a dynamic environment. You are analytical and have an easy time translating ideas into practical action. You have good collaboration skills and want to contribute to a work environment where we work together towards common goals.

To succeed in the role, you need to be confident in contact with various actors, both within and outside the organization. You are initiative-taking, enjoy strategic thinking, and are driven by finding sustainable solutions.
