Stange municipality is looking for an ambitious and strategic project manager who will drive the project department forward and lead the work of developing, managing and realizing important construction projects for the municipality.

This is the position for you who want to combine strategic development, operational implementation and clear professional leadership. You are motivated by creating results with lasting value and want to contribute to good everyday life for the citizens of Stange municipality. The projects you manage - from kindergartens and schools to healthcare buildings and sports facilities - set the framework for services and quality of life in Stange, both now and in the future. Some of the projects you'll be working on include the new Romedal primary school, Åkersvika Hageby and the development of new residential plots in the municipality.

In total, the property department consists of 101 man-years.

The project department consists of four man-years and is responsible for the planning, management and implementation of all the municipality's building projects.
