Job Description
As a Local Coordinator, you will provide the best possible support to the municipality's preschools regarding premises and outdoor environments. You will assist in communication with property owners, authorities, and other partners concerning needs or actions related to the physical environment. You will be responsible to the property owner and/or the operations for contracts, operations, maintenance, planning, and follow-up of investments, maintenance, and fault reports.
Your responsibilities will also include working with budgets and forecasts for the premises. In this role, you will develop, preserve, and enhance the facilities while ensuring that all parties are satisfied and that the financial aspects of the physical environment are progressing according to goals and plans.
You will act as an enabler, ensuring that we can develop our preschool facilities based on the educational requirements we place on children's learning environments. You will work with long-term sustainability and quality.
Although you will work in a team with other local coordinators, you will also work independently to support operations regarding outdoor environments, fire safety, and perimeter protection.
Qualifications
We are looking for someone with a relevant post-secondary education in the real estate field and at least 5 years of experience in similar tasks related to premises, indoor and outdoor environments. A higher education degree focused on real estate is considered an advantage.
This position requires knowledge of how laws, contracts, and regulatory requirements affect operations. You should also have experience with financial follow-up through budget work and possess good Swedish language skills, both spoken and written. Experience working in a politically governed organization and project management is seen as advantageous. Knowledge of SBA (Systematic Fire Protection Work), perimeter protection, AFF (General Terms and Conditions for Construction), and real estate regulations is also a merit.
The job requires strong communication and collaboration skills, as a significant part of the work is done in cooperation with others across various subject areas. You must also be able to take initiative and work independently.
A valid driver's license (B category) is required for this position.
