Vacant job

We enable society to function for people on the road, on rails, in the air, and at sea. Therefore, we need the best competence. Our mission is important and has significance in everyday life – for both private individuals and businesses. At our agency, we take responsibility, treat everyone well, and respect differences. As an employee, you contribute to a sustainable future.

About the job

Development in the road vehicle sector is moving fast. It is therefore important that the rules we have are up-to-date and functional, while we also need to stay ahead when it comes to future vehicle regulation – both in the short and long term.

As the national rule coordinator, you hold together the unit's work within national rule development. This often involves supporting employees in drafting new regulations or implementing changes to existing ones. In this role, you will introduce new employees to the process, quality-assess materials prior to various decision points, and act as a group leader in smaller regulatory projects. You will be responsible for anchoring and following up on the unit's rule development work, which involves regular check-ins with various functions regarding the status of ongoing projects, as well as support in the unit's work with quarterly and annual follow-ups.

The role involves being a central point for the unit's ongoing and upcoming national rule development projects, where you help keep both internal and external information up to date. Your main area will be national rule coordinator for the development of vehicle technical regulations.

The role requires the ability to drive and coordinate several different assignments simultaneously. We see that you can initiate and lead collaborations, as well as have good dialogue with numerous specialists and functions within our subject areas. Since the work involves many well-developed collaborations, it is important to us that you take responsibility for yourself and the collaborations you are involved in, treat everyone well, and respect all our differences.

We are looking for you who want to be part of the development of today's and tomorrow's rules for road vehicles!
