About the job

Here you will have professional responsibility for the labor market area and the apprenticeship initiative.

Internally you work with colleagues within construction, operations, procurement and law. You bring your labor market expertise into play across Metroselskabet and translate it into contract follow-up, analyses and a solid basis for management decisions.

As a department head you have professional responsibility for the area, while the team leader is responsible for the team's overall prioritization and personnel management.
