Vacant job

Have you worked as a Technical Manager in roads and earthworks and want to drive the technology in projects that shape Northern Sweden's infrastructure and green transition? At AFRY in Umeå, you will become a key person who leads the technical design – close to both colleagues and the client. About the role As Technical Manager for Roads/Earthworks, you lead the technical design in both single-discipline and multidisciplinary assignments of varying sizes, with state, municipal, and private clients. You plan and coordinate deliveries, resources, and technical solutions together with project managers and designers, becoming a technical hub that others turn to. The work is supported by BIM, digital tools, and efficient workflows, and you contribute both in individual assignments and in the technical development of the unit. You are involved from start to finish in projects – from early stages to final delivery. Summary of responsibilities:

• Coordinate and technically lead designers within road, earthwork, and street design
• Plan and coordinate deliveries, resources, and technical solutions with project managers and designers
• Work with BIM, digital tools, and efficient workflows – and support colleagues in assignments and technical development
• Contribute to the technical area in AMA texts
• Develop the unit's working methods in collaboration with colleagues nationally and internationally

You are communicative both internally and externally and take responsibility for what you drive. As a team player, you are unpretentious and happy to help when needed – you are all in the same boat. Structure and attention to detail come naturally, which is noticeable in work that often takes place at a detailed level. You contribute energy and want to be part of developing the group. You thrive in a consulting profession with varying pace, where you can ramp up when there is a lot to do and take advantage of the calmer periods. We are looking for someone who has:

• Post-secondary education in earthworks, infrastructure, construction, or equivalent
• At least 3 years of experience in roads, streets, or earthworks – including some time in the role of technical manager
• Experience with AMA, CAD, and BIM
• Good knowledge of Swedish and English, both spoken and written

• Experience working as a consultant
• Experience in project management
• Proficiency in Novapoint, Civil 3D, OpenRoads, or OpenRail
• Valid driver's license (Category B)
