About this role
Torsås Municipality - a municipality with proximity and quality of life in southern Kalmar County. The municipality, with approximately 7,000 inhabitants, can be described as Sweden in miniature. Here you'll find the sea, coast, beaches, plains, lakes, and forests. The business sector is dominated by manufacturing industries but also has great potential in tourism and other areas. We can offer a high quality of life with proximity and great security for residents and visitors. Torsås Municipality has five administrative departments and two fully owned companies.
In Torsås Municipality, we dare to find new solutions, think big thoughts, and come up with exciting ideas. To succeed, we work closely together. We collaborate towards a common goal: to provide the best conditions for a good life for everyone living here. Our proximity is evident in how we leverage each other's strengths. The fact that departments and operations work closely together means that there is never a great distance between employees and management, which in turn leads to short decision-making paths and close cooperation.
Torsås Municipality's core values are based on the words Participation, Development, Clarity, and Security. An approach that every employee and elected official demonstrates in daily work and in interactions with citizens and customers.
