About the Role
As a facilities technician, you will primarily work with maintenance and oversight tasks, both planned and urgent measures, focusing mainly on plumbing in our properties. You will also be responsible for operations service, which includes installations, troubleshooting, and repairs of tenants' equipment. The work is highly varied with many social interactions. Travel may be required as part of the job.

You also have several years of documented experience in plumbing and are accustomed to handling administrative tasks such as work orders, invoicing, or audit documentation. You have strong ability to express yourself in Swedish, both spoken and written.
Since we operate with a customer-focused approach, we expect you to be comfortable with both collaboration and independent work, and to understand the importance of service and communication with our tenants. You are an engaged person who is skilled at building communicative networks and has good coordination skills. You are thorough and action-oriented, have an initiative-taking nature, and are accustomed to independently managing and solving problems that arise. As a person, you value working with engaged colleagues and take pride in your professional role. Shared responsibility for your and your team's deliverables is self-evident to you. You are goal-focused, solution-oriented, and enjoy sharing your knowledge.
