Job description

Saab is a place where teamwork makes things fly. Literally. Join us and experience our supportive and friendly workplace.

Your Role

Are you an experienced project manager who thrives on structure, analysis, and scheduling? Do you want a key role in some of the most exciting and technically advanced projects within Special Mission and Regional Aircraft, such as GlobalEye and Saab 340/2000 AEW&C? Then this could be the role for you!

Our projects are a complex mix of aircraft design, production/procurement, modification and flight test, with a high degree of collaboration both within and outside of Saab, combined with clear customer expectations regarding on-time delivery. In this position, your sole focus will be project planning and scheduling — you will not have your own team or budget responsibility, but will support the main and sub-project managers, ensuring that the project is well structured, planned and scheduled from start to finish.

Your responsibilities include:

• Collaborating with main and sub-project managers to plan and structure all aspects of the project.
• Creating, analyzing, and updating project schedules at various levels.
• Conducting impact analyses in case of plan changes and preparing decision-making materials.
• Communicating status updates and developments to project stakeholders.
• Supporting the development of project and planning methodologies within SMRA.

You will be part of the Aftermarket & Planning section, a key player in the SMRA PMO, where we work together to deliver successful projects of the highest quality.

Your Profile

We are looking for someone who:

• Has several years of experience as a project manager but now wants to focus entirely on the project scheduling tasks.
• Is proficient in tools such as Microsoft Project, PowerPoint, Excel, and/or Antura.
• Has strong language skills in both Swedish and English, both spoken and written.

We highly value a technical background, either through education or work experience.

Personal qualities we appreciate:

• Structured and analytical — you quickly see what needs to be done and how to organize it.
• Communicative and collaborative — you work closely with project managers and stakeholders, bringing people along on the journey.
• Self-driven and proactive — you push activities forward and ensure that schedules hold.

Career Development Opportunities

With us, you will have the opportunity to work in a stable, committed, and growing organization that prioritizes employee development. As a project scheduler, you will gain a solid foundation in project management and analysis. Over time, there are opportunities to progress into roles such as sub-project manager or main project manager. We believe in providing our employees with the right conditions to grow and shape their careers within the company.

Does this sound like something for you? We look forward to your application!

This position requires that you pass a security vetting based on the current regulations around security protection. For positions requiring security clearance additional obligations on citizenship may apply.

Kindly observe that this is an ongoing recruitment process and that the position might be filled before the closing date of the advertisement. You can send us your application in either Swedish or English.

What you will be part of

Behind our innovations stand the people who make them possible. Brave pioneers and curious minds. Everyday heroes and inventive troubleshooters. Those who share deep knowledge and those who explore sky-high. And everyone in between.

Joining us means making an impact together, contributing in our own unique ways. From crafting complex code and building impressive defence and security solutions to simply sharing a coffee with a colleague, every action counts. We encourage you to take on challenges, to create smart inventions and grow in our friendly and tech-savvy workspace. We have a solid mission to keep people and society safe.
