About the position
The Communications unit within Grid Expansion is part of Swedish National Grid's communications department and is responsible for communications related to the authority's critical infrastructure projects, where we expand and develop Sweden's national grid to meet future challenges. We are 14 employees with broad expertise and a working approach characterized by innovative thinking and a desire to develop how we work.
In this role, you are expected to take a comprehensive approach to communications in the grid expansion projects you support—from stakeholder mapping and message development to material production and quality assurance of texts. A large part of the work involves quickly understanding complex contexts and communicating them in a comprehensible way to various external target audiences. You need to be confident in your professional role and act with good judgment even in situations requiring quick decisions or when issues are sensitive for affected stakeholders.

The role includes many interactions with various expert roles and specialists at the authority and with external actors and stakeholders.
We are looking for someone who not only delivers on your own tasks but also contributes to developing the entire unit's communication efforts.
The role also means you can serve as a communications officer on standby (KiB). The position involves travel.
