Job Description

AFRY is one of the leading players in civil engineering in the Nordics. Thanks to our unique breadth, we are proud to deliver tomorrow's infrastructure solutions together with our colleagues from other engineering disciplines.

We are now looking for an engaged leader for our civil engineering section in Kiruna/Gällivare. Within the section, we primarily work with earthworks and road design, as well as construction and project management. We also have expertise in cultural heritage and surveying technology.

As a Service Area Manager with us, you will have a role with great variety, opportunities for many contacts and customer meetings, and responsibility for achieving successful and sustainable business outcomes. You are responsible for the entire section's operations, including strategies, profitability, marketing, quality, personnel, and competence development. You will combine your leadership role with working as a consultant for a portion of your time, preferably as a project manager, project leader, or perhaps a technical specialist.

The section currently consists of 12 employees. You report to the Regional Manager and sit on the region's management group. Region North consists of nearly 300 employees and stretches geographically from Gävle in the south to Kiruna in the north.

The place of work can be Kiruna or Gällivare.

Qualifications

We are looking for you who are passionate about team development, happy customers, and have a great interest in the section's services!

For this role, we see that you have many years of experience from the industry and are skilled at doing business. We prefer that you have work experience as a consultant, but if you have worked on the contractor or client side, that is also interesting. Fundamentally, you have relevant further education and a strong interest in engineering and civil construction.

You have preferably shown evidence of good leadership and can naturally engage and motivate. You have good social skills and like to be challenged both technically and in terms of business and leadership. You are relationship-building, and it is a great advantage if you have an established network in the industry. Naturally, you enjoy collaborating and thrive on sharing your knowledge with both customers and colleagues. Furthermore, you are driven by working in international teams. For this role, we therefore see that you are fluent in both Swedish and English and have ease in expressing yourself both verbally and in writing.

Do you want to develop with us? We welcome your application.

Additional Information

We offer a workplace and a team that can best be described as professional, business-minded, and fun to be around!

Therefore, we focus on a safe working environment and balance between work and leisure.

Last day for applications: 2030-06-30. We review the selection on an ongoing basis.
