The Department of Technology and Urban Environment is responsible for ensuring that Landskrona's public spaces are perceived as safe, welcoming and well-maintained. This involves the operation and maintenance of pavements and parks as well as water and sewerage infrastructure, lighting, harbours and coastal protection, but also sports facilities, bathing sites and places where community life thrives. The department also includes the municipal surveying office with responsibility for surveying services and property formation within the municipality.
The city has been in an expansive phase for just over a decade, and the department's work is central to how Landskrona continues to grow and develop. Another important task is to plan for public transport and traffic safety, and to develop in the long term how the city should look and function in terms of traffic, green spaces and accessibility.
The department plays a central role in providing well-maintained and accessible facilities that enable an active community life and contribute to good public health.

You report directly to the City Director and work closely with other departments and municipal companies to enable the city's development process. You are responsible for both operating and investment budgets.
You naturally move between the department office and the city's various operations, and maintain ongoing contact with other departments, municipal companies and external contractors. The role also includes important responsibility during special events and crises – your leadership needs to be secure and adaptable even in difficult matters.

In Landskrona city, we practise close and present leadership where operations are based on the needs of the workplace. The role requires good understanding of, and experience in, leading within a politically governed organisation.

Your Leadership
Your leadership is characterised by clarity and initiative. You point out the direction, give managers and employees the mandate to take responsibility and ensure that follow-up takes place.

You are a mature and engaged leader with the ability to build commitment among employees and collaborators. Your approach is coaching and communicative. You have a pragmatic and solution-oriented approach, where you see opportunities rather than obstacles. With clarity and security in your leadership, you create a positive culture and build trust both internally and externally. You have an interest in working in a politically governed organisation and can translate political goals into concrete operations. Holistic perspective, collaboration and development focus are important values for you.
