Bräcke Municipality is seeking a project manager to implement the Future Bräcke Feasibility Study.
The feasibility study shall investigate how Bräcke Municipality can strengthen industrial capacity, local resilience, and long-term development in a changed global situation. The work includes analysis, collaboration, and knowledge gathering regarding the business sector's conditions, preparedness, robust supply chains, and future development opportunities.
Bräcke Municipality has many micro and small businesses, long distances, and a sparse structure that affects the conditions for business development. At the same time, the world is changing rapidly with increased demands for preparedness, robust supply chains, and the local ability to handle disruptions and crises. This means that the municipality's resources, businesses, and possible establishment areas need to be understood in a new and larger context.
The feasibility study is tasked with investigating how Bräcke can strengthen its industrial capacity and create better conditions for long-term development. The work includes analysis, dialogue, and knowledge gathering regarding the business sector's needs, local strengths, and future opportunities. An important part is to see how existing businesses and local resources can contribute to increased preparedness and social benefit both in everyday situations and during crises. The feasibility study should also contribute to better collaboration between the municipality, the business sector, and other relevant actors in these matters.
By gathering knowledge and creating a common situational picture, Bräcke Municipality can obtain a clearer basis for future priorities. The result should support continued work and concrete initiatives that strengthen the municipality's resilience and development capacity.
The feasibility study is financed by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) via Tillväxtverket and Region Jämtland Härjedalen.
Based on operational needs, remote work is possible, but we currently see that the role will require a high degree of physical presence in the workplace.
