Vacant job

Are you driven by the desire to grow and develop a business, and to do so together with others in often complex contexts? Do you have experience driving development projects and contributing to and developing the leadership and governance of legal operations? If so, the position of Strategic Business Developer in the Legal Department of the Swedish Pensions Agency (Pensionsmyndigheten) is interesting for you.

The Legal Department is responsible for the Agency's regulations, ensures consistency and clarity in the Agency's application of rules, and works to ensure that operations are otherwise conducted within the framework of current regulations. The Department is also responsible for the Agency's review activities. Currently, approximately 58 employees work in the department, located in Stockholm, Halmstad, and Växjö.

The Department participates in various ways in the Agency's standardization and agile business development. With an increasingly complex regulatory framework that constantly needs to be developed and kept up to date, and with many collaboration areas both internally and externally, there is a need to drive and participate in various development assignments. This is also linked to a need for development and support in the leadership and governance of the department. The work must always be performed with the Agency's overall mission in focus.

About the job

This is a role for you who thrives on challenges and enjoys a varied and developmental position where you work both independently and in close collaboration with colleagues. You will divide your time between managing and developing existing processes and taking a leading role in various development projects. Always with the law as the starting point.

You will report directly to the Head of Department and collaborate closely with the department's unit managers and employees.

Your profile

To succeed in this role, you must be unpretentious, open-minded, and have a well-developed ability to collaborate and communicate with others. You are genuinely interested in contributing to and developing the department's leadership and governance. Furthermore, you are self-reliant and ensure that work is planned, organized, and prioritized in a careful and efficient manner. As a whole, you enjoy being a cog in a larger machine and have the ability to drive parallel tasks and deliver with quality.

The role is new to the department, which requires the ability to identify and shape the role together with the department leadership and employees.

We are looking for someone who has:

• A Law degree (Jur.kand. or equivalent) with at least five years of experience in qualified development work in the public sector
• Further education in project and development work
• Experience leading larger projects
• Experience preparing, conducting, and following up on workshops

It is meritorious if you have:

• Experience working in a management group
• Experience with business planning and business follow-up
• Experience working in system support, e.g., Stratsys
• Good ability to compile and present information and decision materials

We place great emphasis on your personal qualities, motivation, and commitment to the position.
