Project Manager for Olshammar Development

Askersunds kommun · Full-time

Askersund, Sweden

Welcome to Askersund! Here you'll get all the benefits of working in a small municipality. We value the creation of close relationships, the courage to make an impact, and the commitment that permeates our work. We have jobs that matter and together we make a difference every day, all in different ways but always with the municipality's residents in focus. This job is special because you will work together with associations, the municipality, and the business community to develop the Olshammar area and at the same time develop a method for collaboration and rural development throughout the municipality. 1 position(s). JOB RESPONSIBILITIES The associations, business community, and municipality have applied for funding from Leader Mellansjölandet for a project with two focuses. The largest part deals with the development of the Olshammar locality and the surrounding area. The other part aims to develop a method for collaboration between the municipality and all of our village groups as well as among the village groups themselves. The work takes place in close collaboration with actors in the community. To create a good foundation, we plan to conduct study trips and organize inspirational lectures to gain new perspectives on our change work. In Olshammar there are also partially abandoned properties where the trend can be turned into something better than today. The association life in the locality is active and can gain further momentum with the joint project. The locality has a very fine location by Norra Vättern archipelago.

Duration: 6 months or longer, start: Start as soon as possible, by agreement. Employment interviews may begin before the final application deadline.
