Family Guide to Family Center Västerås
You will work in a cross-professional team where you, together with colleagues at the Open Preschool, offer parenting support in the form of individual conversations and parenting education. This is a job for you who enjoy building relationships, working outwardly, and initiating collaboration.
Your tasks
We are located in seven different districts in Västerås, and our operations are characterized by high accessibility, lack of prestige, and a clear focus on children, youth, and parents. Conversations with us are voluntary, anonymous, and free of charge, and an important part of our mission is to create trust and strengthen the confidence between parents and public services.
You will work proactively and be a link between other services and the family center. Collaboration is a cornerstone of our operations, and you will, among other things, collaborate and develop preventive measures in the districts. Important partners for our operations are child health care, preschool/school, and leisure clubs. We are now looking for two family guides. One position is a permanent position, and the other is a temporary position until December 31, with the possibility of extension. The permanent position focuses on parenting support for parents of teenagers, while the temporary position focuses on parenting support for parents of younger children.
Your qualifications
You are confident in your professional role and have experience in supportive conversations and guiding families/parents.
In meetings with parents, you are attentive and have the ability to adapt yourself and your communication according to the challenges and support they need. You work solution-focused and enjoy driving your own work forward. You have a degree as a social worker or behavioral scientist, or another similar academic education.
It is a plus if you have experience in outreach work and initiating collaboration. If you have language skills beyond Swedish, that is also valuable. It is also meritorious if you have previously worked motivationally or systemically and if you have experience in parenting education such as ABC, FÖS, KOMET, TF, or ÄFT. Having a B driver's license is also a positive aspect. Since some of our parenting education takes place in the evenings, you need to be able to work evenings occasionally. Occasional weekends may also occur.
Ongoing interviews during the advertising period may be relevant, so do not wait to submit your application.
We offer
Here you will find inspiring tasks in a non-prestigious organization where it is never far to a colleague who can answer questions or provide support. We are a dedicated team with high competence and have a great opportunity to make a difference for the city's parents and children.
Here you will become part of something bigger! With warmth and respect, we show initiative in both big and small matters. We live our values in our interactions with each other and those we serve. Every day, all year round, we ensure that Västerås functions. Together with your approximately 11,500 colleagues around the city, you will have Sweden's most important job.
Warm welcome with your application!
