About the Role

Do you want to become an important part of the energy transition? Vattenfall Services is Sweden's leading contracting company in the energy and power sector, and we develop Sweden's energy infrastructure! With us, you work in a future-oriented industry with a strong focus on a sustainable future. We need more energy heroes and are now looking for an experienced Service Leader who wants to be part of the journey towards a fossil-free life! Is that you? Together we make a difference, for the whole society.

As a Service Leader with us, you will work with project management of maintenance and services within substations and power plants in our service agreements for station maintenance.

We are looking for you who are motivated by creating the best conditions for technicians in the field and for the organization.

In the role of Service Leader, you will primarily work from the office at your establishment, but you will also, to some extent, be out in the field to ensure that projects run as they should. The work is largely independent, but at the same time, strong collaboration and communication skills are required with both internal and external stakeholders.

Some of your main tasks:

About you

As a Service Leader with us, you will be the technicians' primary contact for the work performed in the field. Leadership is a big part of everyday life, and therefore we are looking for you who have a problem-solving and coaching approach.

We are therefore looking for you who want to take responsibility and who have a great commitment to your assignments. You are motivated by offering service and quality to your colleagues and customers, you act commercially with good entrepreneurship, and you would never let profitability take precedence over safety. With us at Vattenfall Services, safety always comes first!

• Long work experience in work management or project management.
• Work experience in the electrical or power engineering field.
• Experience from the contracting industry.
