About the job

Who are we looking for?

We are looking for a project manager with experience from the contractor industry, who is motivated to be close to the construction site and take responsibility for projects in the execution phase.

You may have a background as a contract manager, construction manager or project manager at a contractor or consultant and now wish to try your hand at the client role. Here you get the opportunity to use your practical construction experience to manage projects, make decisions and create good results for the municipality's many buildings and users.

We are looking for a profile that thrives in the tension between planning and execution, and who can translate needs and decisions into concrete solutions. You are used to taking responsibility, creating momentum and ensuring high quality in collaboration with contractors, advisers and users.

Your tasks

As a project manager you will be responsible for your own projects from early clarification to handover and commissioning. The projects span widely and include, among others, renovations, conversions, maintenance projects, regulatory requirements, user adaptations and smaller new builds. Depending on the scope and complexity of the project you will also join project teams and work closely with colleagues on planning and execution.

A large part of your daily life takes place at properties and construction sites, where you follow the projects closely and ensure progress in the execution.

Your primary tasks will be

• Project management of smaller and medium-sized construction and renovation projects
• Assumption of the client role throughout the project
• Close follow-up on construction sites with focus on quality, economy and schedule
• Coordination and management of contractors, advisers and other collaborators
• Preparation of project basis, procurement and contracting
• Holding construction meetings and follow-up on agreements and decisions
• Dialogue with users, service staff and institutions before, during and after projects
• Handling of urgent construction and maintenance tasks
• Contributing to long-term planning of maintenance and investments in the municipality's buildings

Depending on your competencies and interests there will be the possibility to also work with development areas such as sustainability, energy optimization, digitization and building data.

The Property Department works with quality management and high professional standards. We value knowledge sharing, collaboration and joint responsibility for task solving.

Your profile

You have a construction-technical education as building constructor, engineer or equivalent relevant background.

We place particular emphasis on having experience from the contractor industry, executing construction or construction management. You know the construction site day-to-day, understand the challenges and opportunities that arise during execution, and are used to creating momentum through close dialogue with craftsmen, foremen, contract managers and advisers.

In addition, we imagine that you

• Have experience with project management of construction and renovation projects
• Can create momentum and make decisions in a busy daily life
• Are visible and relationship-building on the construction site
• Have good collaboration and coordination skills
• Work structured and see your projects through to the end
• Have understanding of economy, budgets and contract management
• Communicate clearly and professionally with both craftsmen, advisers, users and management

You should be prepared to work in a politically led organization, where priorities and framework conditions can continuously change.
