Job Description

Shipping in Sweden is facing major changes.

Trafikverket Ferry Services aims to be at the forefront and drive development towards more sustainable and smart solutions.

According to our long-term plan, Vision 45, Trafikverket Ferry Services works to achieve carbon-neutral ferry operations by 2045. We are working on the electrification of the ferries, and Vision 45 also opens up for using smart digital solutions to reach climate goals. To achieve these goals, we now need to hire marine engineers for our Technology and Environment Department. The position is located at Trafikverket's regional office in Stockholm/Solna.

As a marine engineer/project manager, you will be part of the Technology and Environment Department, which currently consists of 16 employees, a maintenance manager, and a technology and environment manager. The department plays a central role within Trafikverket Ferry Services, providing support while driving continued development. To adapt to environmental and climate requirements, a large part of the job responsibilities will involve electrifying and introducing digital solutions on new and existing vessels. In collaboration with operational operations, districts, and shipyards, the department ensures that the results unit has effective support in the technical area.

Some of the tasks you will have include:

• acting as project manager for larger projects such as new construction/refurbishment of ferries

You are goal- and solution-oriented and driven by development and continuous improvements. You have high integrity and an ethical and moral approach. The position also places high demands on your communication skills. The project manager will be the link between operations, the clients, and the suppliers, and therefore a structured working method is important.

We are looking for someone who:
