Do you want to be part of the work to manage and develop our system support for a digitalized and sustainable development? We are in the midst of an intensive phase of digitalization and development of our operations, and we are looking for an employee with competence in application management.

We are looking for you who want to contribute, take responsibility, and continue to develop in your professional role. With us, you will have the opportunity to grow into a role where how you approach new challenges is just as important as what you already know. You thrive in an environment where a lot is happening, where the path is not always straight, and where you, together with others, get to find solutions forward. Here you can use your curiosity, drive, and collaborative skills to create value, both for the operations and for society at large.

Your Responsibilities

In this role, you work together with colleagues and suppliers to manage and further develop our IT operations. You will become an important part of a team where collaboration, dialogue, and shared responsibility create the conditions for stable, secure, and purposeful IT support.

You will, among other things:

  • Develop, implement, and follow up on management plans and budgets
  • Follow up on contracts and deliveries related to your area of responsibility
  • Ensure that our IT support is stable, secure, and adapted to the needs of the operations
  • Responsible for lifecycle planning from a holistic perspective
  • Coordinate and drive activities together with colleagues and external suppliers
  • Contribute to development and improvement in an organization that is constantly changing.

Everyday life is characterized by many contact points, varying tasks, and sometimes complex issues. It is not always clear from the start which path is the right one, but you will become part of a context where we work together to move forward.

We are primarily a client organization as large parts of our IT environment are outsourced.

Your Competence

Requirements:

  • Technical university education with a focus on IT, or equivalent competence acquired in another way
  • Experience in management and/or project management. Alternatively, experience in system administration or in leading and coordinating development work
  • An understanding of the IT landscape, i.e., how systems, integrations, infrastructure, and security are connected
  • Good communication skills in Swedish, both oral and written.

Merits:

  • Experience in managing and further developing case management systems for processing and registration within authorities or municipalities
  • Experience in ordering IT services or experience working as a consultant in a similar field
  • Experience with budgeting, forecasting, and follow-up

We place great emphasis on personal qualities and we are looking for you who have a clear delivery focus and value the opportunity to constantly develop. You will be given significant responsibility and you need to enjoy challenges and problem-solving. Furthermore, you have the ability to lead others, be flexible, and enjoy collaboration. You are accustomed to communication and enjoy communicating, both with external suppliers and with users.

About the Position

The employment is permanent and full-time with placement in Stockholm or Östersund. Start date as soon as possible according to agreement. We apply a six-month probation period.

The Swedish Environmental Protection Agency wants to offer a flexible way of working through the possibility of remote work up to 50% of working hours. We strive for efficient operations and a sustainable working life.

When you apply, you will be asked to answer a number of selection questions linked to the requirement profile in the advertisement. Your answers will be used as part of the selection process and can determine whether you proceed in the recruitment process or not. Therefore, it is important that you answer as thoroughly and clearly as possible. We do not use cover letters in the selection process because we want to focus on your experience and competence, which contributes to a more efficient and fair recruitment process. In your application to us, you attach only your CV.
