About the Role
About the Workplace
Staffanstorp is a young and growing municipality with over 27,000 inhabitants, ranked among Sweden’s best business climates, attractive residential environments, and top-tier schools. Around 1,200 employees work to deliver high-quality services, safety, and quality of life for residents.
Whether you’re teaching children to read and calculate, providing culture and music, ensuring safety and healthcare, or developing streets and public spaces—you contribute to creating good days for those who live and work in Staffanstorp.
As an employee, you’ll be part of an organization with high levels of employee involvement and fast decision-making. You’ll receive strong peer support as we collectively turn ideas into reality. Our operations are built on mutual trust and present, engaged leadership. If you’re seeking meaningful work where you make a difference, we welcome you to join us!
City Planning Administration
The City Planning Administration consists of four departments handling planning and development, environment and building permits, technical matters, and geographic information.
Geoinfo
Geoinfo comprises eight employees and a manager. It serves as the Surveying and Mapping Department for both Staffanstorp and Kävlinge municipalities, divided into a GIS section and a Surveying section. Our teams are based at the Town Hall in Staffanstorp and the Municipal House in Kävlinge. Approximately half of our operations are self-financed, with a focus on quality, service, and satisfied customers.
We now aim to jointly strengthen GIS expertise in two of Skåne’s growth municipalities!
Job Duties
As a GIS Developer/Engineer, you will develop and process geographic information to serve as decision support and operational tools for the organization. You’ll visualize and present results via the municipality’s overarching GIS platform.
You’ll enable case handlers in both Staffanstorp and Kävlinge to easily collect their operational data through user-friendly GIS applications.
You recognize the value of automating and digitizing workflows, see the potential of geographic information in these processes, and actively promote GIS adoption across the organization. Geoinfo currently holds an FME municipal license and is actively expanding its use.
Your responsibilities include:
Designing custom GIS solutions using the ESRI platform, FME, and programming languages such as Python, JavaScript, or SQL
Automating processes, workflows, and data management using FME
Publishing to web maps, cartography, data extraction, and GIS analysis
Geoinfo plays a vital role in both municipalities. As a GIS Engineer, you’ll have the opportunity to work on a diverse range of tasks, adaptable to your experience and interests, to support organizational development as much as possible.
In addition to Geoinfo, you’ll collaborate closely with case handlers primarily in the City Planning Administration in Staffanstorp and the Social Infrastructure Sector in Kävlinge, as well as other departments across both municipalities. A key part of our work is spreading GIS practices to other departments and simplifying their operations.
The GIS section within Geoinfo also functions as a competence center for both municipalities, supporting GIS-related projects and promoting GIS knowledge and better products for residents.

Holds an academic degree or equivalent in a field deemed relevant by the employer
Has experience or interest in one or more of the following areas: system administration, geographic information, documentation, automation processes, web mapping, cartography, property law, information security, Python, FME, and SQL
