We seek an experienced project coordinator with extensive experience of leading and coordinating projects involving multiple stakeholders from different organizations and locations. The position will be placed at the central operations office at SciLifeLab but work to support the national Drug Discovery and Development platform and the national platform for Chemical Biology & Genome Engineering in their long-term strategic planning. Besides a thorough hands-on experience with leading and coordinating projects of strategic nature, it is of great importance to have an understanding of the current mode of operation and organization of SciLifeLab, affiliated universities, stakeholders, and the Swedish life science ecosystem.

Eligible applicants will have a well documented track record of relevance to the employment. Experience from industrial project leader positions in the life science sector, or other high-tech industries, are highly meriting. You will need a strong passion for organization and structure, writing of strategic plans, and arranging and executing meetings with both internal and nationally distributed stakeholders of the facilities within the two platforms.
