As a project manager in our infrastructure projects for substations, you are offered one of Sweden's most important project management roles, where you contribute to Sweden's electricity supply every day. We need you to succeed in our socially vital mission to electrify Sweden.

Do you want the opportunity to lead some of Sweden's most critical infrastructure projects? Are you motivated by leading teams, creating structure, and driving projects to success? Then this might be the right opportunity for you!

About the role

In the role of Project Manager, you will be responsible for leading infrastructure projects for substations within the transmission grid. The projects have a budget within a large range, varying between approx. 10 MSEK-600 MSEK. You represent Svenska Kraft Net as the client, which means you are responsible for the project's time, cost, and results.

In the role of Project Manager in the Early Phase, you will manage feasibility studies for substation projects. You will lead and conduct feasibility studies of various sizes with the help of your team of approx. 10-15 people with specialist competencies. Together, you deliver a result that forms the basis for investment decisions and ordering of subsequent project implementation. You are responsible, together with your team, for among other things:

• Substation design and placement of substations
• Risk analysis for project implementation, working environment, and environmental impact
• Support for investment decisions as well as schedule and cost estimate for the implementation phase
• Conduct and drive dialogue with stakeholders and drawing up agreements
• Lead meetings with internal and external parties

In the role of Project Manager, you have a delegation for work environment and electrical safety.

We are an organization undergoing change, which means you have great opportunities to influence your work and new ways of working, and in the role, you will work together with competent and experienced colleagues in exciting and socially vital infrastructure projects.

You will belong to the Substation Projects department and be placed in one of the units within the department. The department's mission is to drive infrastructure projects from feasibility study to completed facility. We place high focus on ensuring the work is driven with high personal safety, quality, efficiency, and low environmental impact. Today, approx. 80 project managers work in the department, and there are good opportunities to influence and make a difference, both in the projects and in the ongoing operations.
