The Future of Work and Learning
Do you want to lead a project that transforms more than just a project?
AI is changing the workplace at a rapid pace.
But the real challenge is not about technology. It's about people's ability to learn new skills, develop together, and create ways of working where technology strengthens – rather than replaces – human connection.
At Folkuniversitetet, we believe that the future of learning is where the future of work begins.
We are now seeking a Project and Change Leader to lead one of our most strategic development initiatives. With support from the European Social Fund, we are driving a comprehensive three-year development project where over 330 employees will together develop their digital competence, strengthen their AI knowledge, and create new ways of working for the future.
This is not a project on the side of our operations. It is part of our long-term development. Therefore, we are not looking for a traditional project manager.
We are looking for a change leader who sees projects as a tool for developing people, operations, and culture. Someone who understands that the greatest results are not created through project plans and reports, but through people learning, collaborating, and changing the way they work together.
When the project ends, it should not just be activities that have been completed. New ways of working, new skills, and a stronger learning culture should be a natural part of Folkuniversitetet's operations.
Your Assignment
As Project and Change Leader, you are responsible for leading the project from start to finish. But your assignment involves much more than project management. You will become an important part of Folkuniversitetet's long-term development.
You will work closely with the management team, leaders, and operations to ensure that the project's goals are implemented in practice and become a natural part of our daily work. You create structure, drive change, and build engagement so that the project's results continue long after the project period ends.
You will, among other things:
lead the project implementation throughout the entire project period
create structure, engagement, and momentum in the project organization
coordinate the steering committee, reference group, external training providers, and internal operations
be responsible for the project's budget, monitoring, and reporting according to the European Social Fund's requirements
support managers and operations in implementing new ways of working
drive change management and create participation so that the project's results become an integrated part of regular operations
ensure that the project's effects continue after the project period ends
contribute to spreading the project's experiences regionally and nationally.
Who Are You?
You enjoy complex assignments. You see connections where others see individual activities and are driven by creating real change together with others.
You have experience leading projects or development initiatives where people, culture, and operational development have been at least as important as timelines and deliverables.
We believe you have:
an academic degree
several years of experience in qualified project management, change management, or operational development
experience leading development work in complex organizations
good experience with budget work, monitoring, and reporting
experience with ESF-financed projects or other public funding is a merit
very strong communication skills in both speech and writing.
We place great importance on your personal qualities.
We believe you are
Kind. Yes, we use that word deliberately. We believe that the best results are created in environments where people feel trust, are listened to, and dare to think differently. That's why we're looking for a person who meets others with respect, curiosity, and care.
You dare to make decisions, challenge established ways of working, and maintain direction even when change feels uncomfortable. You create engagement by involving others and have the ability to get people to want to participate and contribute.
You combine structure with action, see the whole picture, and make things happen.
And perhaps most importantly:
You believe, just as we do, that the best results are created together with the operations – not for the operations.
Why Folkuniversitetet?
We are a mission-driven, non-profit organization where knowledge is used to create opportunities for people.
We believe that the future of work is built through lifelong learning, critical thinking, and the courage to develop together.
The Future of Work and Learning project is not a temporary initiative. It is an important part of our long-term strategy to develop Folkuniversitetet as an organization and create even better conditions for our employees, our participants, and society at large.
With us, you will therefore have the opportunity to lead a project that transforms an organization – not just implements one.
If you believe that people develop best when they feel secure, challenged, and included, then we believe you will thrive with us.
