Job Description

Are you an experienced project manager with a passion for leadership and managing large, complex projects? Are you ready to lead groundbreaking initiatives and drive success for our clients? Then this could be your next career opportunity! For this role, we are looking for someone based in the Stockholm area who is willing to travel and open to consulting assignments that may involve weekly commuting.

As a Senior Project Manager at AFRY, you will drive medium to large projects for some of the market's most exciting companies. Additionally, in many cases, you will work with the most modern methods within project management.

In your role, you will help our clients meet the demands placed on their operations. Your tasks may include, for example:

• Taking responsibility for product development and leading a group of engineers/sub-project managers from various disciplines - from concept to production, including requirements definition, design, verification/validation, and production.
• Business development: developing a documented development methodology for the client, which includes identifying needs, securing buy-in for proposals, making decisions regarding system support, etc.

Projects may be carried out at our clients' sites within Greater Stockholm (from Uppsala in the north to Södertälje in the south). We always strive to find the right setup that suits you to balance life and work. Around you, you will find many competent colleagues and an active exchange of experience. Our clients are primarily represented in the Automotive, Defense, Pharmaceutical, Manufacturing, Medical Technology, and Telecommunications industries.

Why work with me? – Recruiting Manager Emma: "As a leader, I am supportive and engaged. I am driven by collaboration, achieving common goals, tackling challenges, and having fun together. I believe it is important to create a sense of belonging and pride in the team and the company. Our team has many years of experience in project management and leadership, which everyone applies at a high level and is happy to share, and I am very proud of that."

We stand for equality, diversity, and inclusion. At AFRY, you become part of a diverse, inclusive organization where our differences are our strengths. We respect each other, share our knowledge, and enjoy our work.

Qualifications

• You have an engineering degree in, for example, mechanical engineering, electronics, or technical physics.
• You have led your own projects for at least 5 years, preferably within Swedish industry and from several different sectors. We would appreciate experience from both production and product development.
• You must have good proficiency in Swedish and English, both spoken and written.
• We prefer that you are certified according to PMI or IPMA; if not, you will be offered this through us.

To be considered for this position, only Swedish citizenship is accepted.

Additional Information

We offer a workplace with forward-thinking and security in the form of collective agreements and employee benefits, competence development, mentoring, and an individual career development plan – just for you!

We are a great group of project managers who meet regularly for "experience sharing" events and social gatherings, and there is also the opportunity to join our fantastic employee club, Club AFRY.
