About the job

Do you want to lead the Technical Section in Roskilde? Are you motivated by combining leadership, technical operation and development - and would you like to help create a closer and more coherent technical collaboration across Sjællands University Hospital?

Then the position as Functional Manager for the Technical Section at Sjællands University Hospital (SUH) might be for you.

About the department

The Technical Section at Sjællands University Hospital is responsible for operation and maintenance of the hospital's buildings, energy supply and technical installations.

The Technical Section in Roskilde today consists of around 20 employees. You will become part of a department where you have the opportunity to influence both workflows, collaboration and future solutions.

The Technical Section in Roskilde and Køge must increasingly operate as one unified unit. This means that in the coming years there will be a focus on developing common workflows, leveraging competencies across and creating close cooperation between the two sites.

About the position

As a Functional Manager you will be a key person in the Technical Section with responsibility for daily leadership and operation.

Your primary association will be with Roskilde, but you should expect to work at both the Roskilde campus and the Køge campus. The position thus involves close collaboration with employees, managers and other partners at both campuses.

As part of your managerial responsibilities you will participate in the on-call management for the Technical Section. This means that after a fixed duty schedule you must be available outside normal working hours and be able to handle and coordinate operational events that require managerial involvement.

As the Technical Section in Roskilde and Køge develops into operating as one unified unit, you must be prepared for changes to your area of responsibility, your tasks and the organizational allocation of tasks. You will also have the opportunity to actively contribute to this development and help shape the future collaboration across Roskilde and Køge.

You will become part of a technical environment where supply security, patient safety and a high level of service are crucial for the hospital's daily operation.

Your tasks

As a Functional Manager you will, among other things, be responsible for

  • leading and motivating the employees in the Technical Section
  • ensuring stable and safe operation of the hospital's technical installations around the clock
  • participating in the on-call management in the Technical Section and handling the tasks and responsibilities that come with the on-call function
  • being responsible for the finances of the Technical Section in Roskilde, including budget follow-up and financial prioritization
  • actively contributing to a good working environment and a strong collaborative culture
  • supporting collaboration and knowledge sharing across Roskilde and Køge
  • actively contributing to the development of the Technical Section in Roskilde and Køge as one unified unit
  • participating in developing workflows, areas of responsibility and organization in step with the department's development.

We are looking for a leader who can create direction, engagement and followership in a daily life characterized by high complexity and many stakeholders.

You

  • communicate clearly and are good at creating followership
  • thrive on taking responsibility and making decisions
  • work in a structured way and maintain overview - even when pace is high
  • focus on collaboration, well-being and development
  • are curious about new solutions and are motivated by creating improvements
  • thrive with changes and can see opportunities to develop new forms of collaboration across the organization.

We imagine that you

  • are educated as a mechanical engineer, engineer or have another relevant technical education
  • have experience with the operation of larger technical facilities or complex buildings
  • have experience with leadership
  • have knowledge of CTS/BMS and preferably other monitoring and operational control systems
  • have understanding of technical disciplines such as electrical, water, heating, ventilation, cooling, energy systems and medical gases
  • have financial understanding and can work with budgets, prioritization and financial follow-up
  • are willing to work at both the Roskilde and Køge campuses
  • are willing to join the Technical Section's on-call leadership.

We offer

With us you will get

  • a strong professional environment with engaged colleagues and high specialization
  • opportunity for both professional and managerial development
  • a daily life with great variation, responsibility and influence
  • the possibility of playing a central role in developing the shared Technical Section across Roskilde and Køge
  • close collaboration with many different professional groups across the hospital.

Employment terms

The position involves work on Sjællands University Hospital's campuses in both Roskilde and Køge, and you must therefore be prepared to have your workday at both campuses.

As part of the job, you will participate in the Technical Section's on-call management according to the currently applicable duty schedule.

As the Technical Section in Roskilde and Køge develops as one unified unit, the position's organizational placement, responsibilities and concrete tasks may develop and change.
