Business Development Manager – Simplification

Do you want to work to increase the competitiveness of companies? One of the important parts of competitiveness is making it easier for businesses to do the right thing. We are now looking for a person with good knowledge of companies' needs for simplification and who also understands the public sector's role! We at Tillväxtverket work for competitive companies and sustainable development in all parts of Sweden. We offer knowledge, networks, and investment opportunities. This provides direct benefit to companies, and also creates conditions for companies, municipalities, and regions to meet future challenges. Tillväxtverket is a national authority with regional presence in nine locations. At the Simplification department of Tillväxtverket, we work to create simple government contacts for companies. If you are interested in societal development, this is a job for you. The unit's responsibilities include contributing to the development of content and services on verksamt.se, simplifying permit processes in close collaboration with responsible authorities, and reducing and simplifying companies' reporting obligations to authorities at the national, regional, and municipal levels. About the role In this role, you will work to make Sweden less complicated by simplifying for companies related to the application of regulations by administering authorities, nationally and locally. The work is often carried out through specific government assignments where we have a coordinating role and support other authorities with knowledge, working methods, and experience. The assignments range from working for more efficient permit processes when establishing green transition initiatives to monitoring the progress of simplification work at authorities. It is important to have the ability to effectively lead projects from a systems perspective to identify synergies between different ongoing initiatives and to initiate networks between different stakeholders where needed. At the unit, work is carried out through support to other authorities to work with simplification. We conduct, for example, needs analyses, interview studies, or carry out user-centered workshops. Simplification issues concern how authorities should understand companies' needs and be able to adapt information to companies, create new digital solutions, and/or streamline internal processes to reduce reporting and processing times. All so that it becomes easier for companies to contact us as authorities, so they can spend less time on administration. We therefore see that you are a person who both has an interest in or experience of running a business and the needs that exist within the simplification area, and has good knowledge of how the public sector works and what requirements must be met to protect the state's values.

Good ability to express yourself simply and clearly in Swedish. The following are advantageous: Good knowledge of companies' needs when contacting public authorities. Good ability to lead processes, identify and create synergies and networks. Interest in understanding, investigating, and mapping companies' needs related to simplification. Experience of project management at operational, tactical, and strategic levels. Experience in writing reports and developing policy recommendations. As a person, we are looking for someone who works professionally and results-oriented with your tasks and has the customer in focus. You can independently plan, drive, and implement activities and motivate others. Your ability to collaborate within and outside the organization to create added value and achieve good results is strong. You are responsive, communicate clearly, and treat others with respect, and you contribute to a good working environment and good community. We will place great emphasis on personal qualities.
