About the assignment

We are looking for an experienced Building Permit Manager for a long-term consultancy assignment within a large-scale infrastructure project in the Stockholm area.

To strengthen the organization, we are now seeking a Building Permit Manager who will join the department's support team and assist with building permit-related matters.
