Through a holistic perspective with commitment to collaboration and the individual resident, we enable sustainable development throughout the county. We start from V\u00e4sterbotten and build on everything that happens, both within the county's borders and beyond. For us, it's equally natural to collaborate with public actors such as other state agencies, regions, and municipalities as it is with business and civil society.\n\nThe County Administrative Board is a regional crisis management and total defense agency. In case of a societal crisis or heightened alert, you may therefore work on tasks other than those you are normally employed for. Permanent employees at the agency are part of the County Administrative Board's crisis and war organization and will, in most cases, be war-placed at the agency.\n\nAbout 300 employees work with us in approximately 80 different professional roles. Our specialized expertise exists in a range of areas that are important building blocks for our society to function for all residents and for ecological, economic, and social development. We work to have employees with knowledge of Sweden's minority languages and therefore value your knowledge of S\u00e1mi, Me\u00e4nkieli, Finnish, Romani Chib, and Yiddish.\n\nNext Steps\nThe recruitment is conducted in collaboration with Signpost, which specializes in recruiting successful managers and leaders who make a difference. We welcome leaders with different backgrounds, ages, genders, and experiences who contribute new ideas, insights, and perspectives. If this position sounds interesting and you're ready for the next step in your career, we warmly welcome your expression of interest! The application deadline is October 6, 2026.\n\nPlease note that all final candidates will go through the same process in the recruitment process. This includes competency-based interviews and security vetting. This allows us to fairly and objectively compare each manager's competence in relation to the requirements profile. When you submit your application, it becomes a public document. If you have protected information, contact us and we'll help you with how to proceed with a safe and secure application process.
