Are you an analytically strong academic with a flair for strategy development and political acumen, who wants to contribute to realizing the Municipal Council's ambitions through concrete initiatives?

The Management Secretariat is an attractive and professional workplace with a high level of ambition. The daily life in the Management Secretariat is varied and professionally challenging, where things sometimes move quickly, and tasks must be solved under time pressure, based on a solid professional, legal, and economic foundation.

As our AC officer, you will play a central role in the development of new policies, strategies, and projects. Exciting tasks will accompany the wishes of the Municipal Council, including through the annual budget agreements.

The tasks will be determined in closer collaboration with the department manager and will include, among other things:

• Development and implementation of policies and strategies
• Management support
• Project management of cross-functional tasks
