Projektledare
– After several years at sea with the same shipping company, I felt it was time for a new challenge. I considered switching companies and trading routes, but at the same time, I was contacted by Felix Werbowsky, our sales manager, who encouraged me to apply for a position at the shipyard.
Felix, whom I got to know during my studies in Norway, had suggested this for a long time. This time, however, the offer was for a more senior role with a competitive salary that was approaching what I earned at sea. Stepping ashore was not an obvious decision for me, but when the opportunity arose, I realized it was time to try something new. The shipyard was appealing, not least because it allowed me to work close to home while maintaining a strong connection to the maritime industry.
What does your job involve?
I work as a project manager at the shipyard, where I serve as the central hub for the projects I oversee. Once a project is handed over from the sales department, I take charge, ensuring it stays on schedule, within budget, and that invoicing is handled properly. I am responsible for the entire process, from project initiation to final delivery to the customer.
A large part of my work revolves around collaboration—coordinating different stakeholders and ensuring that everyone is working toward the same goal. Customer relations are key, as is the teamwork with various shipyard departments and our numerous subcontractors.
What is the best part of working at SRVAB?
The best part of working at the shipyard is the variety of projects and the ever-changing challenges. As a former sea captain, surrounded by experienced marine engineers, I am constantly learning new things, particularly in the technical field. We complement each other well, and there is always a close-knit collaboration—the door is always open.
But without a doubt, the best thing about SRVAB is my fantastic colleagues. We have fun together, laugh every day, and truly enjoy each other’s company.

“We are a great team working on different tasks, but we share the same goal—to get the job done well and on time. I find the job incredibly stimulating and exciting, and it’s rewarding to be part of both today’s and tomorrow’s journey toward the electrification of vessels. During my time at the shipyard, I’ve completed several training programs and truly feel that I have grown and developed here. The fact that the shipyard is located on Beckholmen, right in the heart of Stockholm, with a stunning view of the city, is just the icing on the cake!” says Magnus enthusiastically.
How did you become a team leader at Stockholm Repair Yard?
From an early age, I had a strong interest in cars and considered studying automotive technology in high school. But after careful consideration and discussions with my father, I decided instead to pursue electrical engineering—a decision I have never regretted!
In 2016, I got a job at an electrical firm that was contracted to work at the shipyard. I was fascinated by the shipyard environment, with different vessels docking in for service, repairs, and refits. In 2018, I was offered a direct position at the shipyard’s electrical department as an electrician, and I quickly advanced—first to foreman and later to team leader.
What does a typical workweek look like for you?
I usually start my workday early to have quiet time for planning. Which vessels need servicing? What tasks need to be done? Who will handle each job?
One of the things I love about my job is that no two days are alike. New vessels bring new challenges, making my work varied, fun, and exciting.
At the shipyard, we work in different teams, and right now, our electrical team consists of three electricians. When multiple vessels require extensive electrical work, we bring in additional personnel from subcontractors. Sometimes, vessels can’t come to the shipyard, so instead, our electricians travel to the vessel and carry out the work on-site.
