The posting

Are you passionate about business development, international growth and client advisory? Do you have experience leading consulting projects and driving commercial success in Colombia? We are now looking for a Project Manager to join our team in Bogotá, Colombia.

As Project Manager at Business Sweden, you will play a key role in helping Swedish and international companies capture growth opportunities across Colombia and Latin America. You will combine strategic advisory work with hands-on project delivery, stakeholder engagement, and business development.

In this role, you will lead complex consulting and trade promotion projects, develop client relationships, identify new business opportunities, and contribute to Business Sweden's continued growth in the region. You will work closely with clients, public and private stakeholders, as well as colleagues across Latin America and our global network.

The role includes both strategic, tactical and operational responsibilities such as:

  • Leading and delivering market expansion, business development, and advisory projects across Colombia and Latin America.
  • Managing multi-stakeholder projects involving clients, government agencies, industry associations, NGOs, and ecosystem partners.
  • Driving business development activities, including client dialogue, opportunity identification, proposal development, and sales conversion.
  • Acting as a trusted advisor to clients by analysing market opportunities, stakeholder landscapes, and industry developments.
  • Building and maintaining strong relationships with key public and private sector stakeholders.
  • Planning and executing government-financed programmes supporting sustainable business growth and development cooperation.
  • Collaborating with Swedish public agencies, embassies, development finance institutions, and multilateral organisations.
  • Leading and coaching project teams while supporting resource planning and team development.
  • Contributing to regional initiatives and identifying opportunities for cross-market collaboration across Latin America.
  • Supporting the continuous development of Business Sweden's regional service offerings, methodologies, and market insights.

Business Sweden has been assigned the task of strengthening synergies between trade and development cooperation. As part of this mission, you will work closely with Swedish public agencies and international development actors, including Sida, embassies, multilateral development banks, and local authorities, to support sustainable business and investment projects.

The role is based in Bogotá, but you will be expected to work closely with colleagues and clients across Latin America and globally.

Core competencies and collaborative skills

  • Demonstrate commitment, accountability, and professionalism in all aspects of your work.
  • Take ownership and drive projects from opportunity identification through successful delivery.
  • Build trust-based relationships with clients, colleagues, and external stakeholders.
  • Collaborate effectively across teams, markets, and disciplines.
  • Lead and inspire others through a positive, entrepreneurial, and solution-oriented mindset.
  • Communicate complex ideas in a clear, structured, and compelling manner.
  • Adapt quickly to changing priorities and thrive in a dynamic international environment.
  • Contribute to an inclusive team culture and actively support the development of colleagues.

Formal requirements

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Business Administration, Economics, Engineering, International Relations, or another relevant field.
  • Minimum 5 years of relevant experience from management consulting, strategy consulting, business advisory, or similar client-facing roles.
  • Proven experience leading complex projects involving multiple stakeholders, clients, and workstreams.
  • Strong commercial track record with experience in business development, client relationship management, proposal development, and sales.
  • Extensive professional experience from Colombia, with a deep understanding of the local business environment, institutional landscape, and key public and private sector stakeholders.
  • Experience working across Latin America and managing regional or cross-border initiatives is highly valued.
  • Experience within sectors such as infrastructure, transportation, energy, utilities, mining, industrials, healthcare, sustainability, or public-private collaboration is considered a strong advantage.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities combined with excellent presentation and communication skills.
  • Fluency in both English and Spanish, written and spoken.

It is a plus if you have experience working with development cooperation, multilateral development banks, international organisations, government agencies, or public sector stakeholders.
