JOB DESCRIPTION

School area 16 in southwestern Gothenburg includes Fiskebäcksskolan and Dalaskolan.

Fiskebäcksskolan is located in a beautiful area close to the sea, and we like to use our local environment in teaching. The proximity to the sea offers exciting teaching opportunities, and we often go on excursions in our local area. About 600 students from preschool class to grade 9 attend here, and we have a clear focus on students' development in a safe and creative school environment.

At the beautiful, hundred-year-old Dalaskolan, there are just over 400 students from preschool class to grade 6. You will find Dalaskolan in Grimmered, at the foot of the hills towards Ekebäck. Here we want to give children aged 6 to 13 a desire to learn and all the fundamental knowledge needed to live a rich and meaningful life, together with others. Would you like to help develop the school's operations with us?

Your placement will initially be at Dalaskolan, but the employment covers the entire school area, so placement may change. The position is a permanent employment of approximately 60-70% employment rate.

As an administrator in the school, you support the principal, vice principal, and management team with administrative tasks. This includes work in IT systems for student, staff, and financial administration, such as hiring, reporting support, payroll control, invoice management, and student registration. You also handle grade administration, substitute procurement, and office tasks such as case management, archive maintenance, disclosure of public documents, as well as purchasing and procurement. Your work also includes expedition tasks and contact with visitors, students, parents, and authorities.

The administrator has a central and important role in the school's daily operations where many new situations can arise during the workday. Substitute procurement is also part of the assignment. However, at present, another employee is handling this. You will also encounter the school's scheduling and organization programs (Novaschem and Stratsys). There are periods of peak work such as at the start of the term, grading, and payroll processing.

QUALIFICATIONS

We are looking for someone who:

• Has a high school education and further education, such as a university degree, YH/KY education, or other further education; which the employer assesses as equivalent, in the administrative field such as finance, personnel administration, and/or administration within public administration.
• Documented experience of qualified administrative support for management.
• Has experience in purchasing and procurement.
• Has experience working in IT systems within finance and/or personnel.

It is an advantage if you have a university degree in public administration or have another university degree that the employer assesses as relevant. It is also an advantage if you have worked in a school.

As a person, you are service-oriented and have a good ability to handle multiple tasks simultaneously. You have a good demeanor and enjoy a variety of tasks. You are flexible and creative and like to find solutions. As a school administrator with us, you have an independent role that requires you to structure your work, prioritize tasks based on your assignment, and take your own initiative. A good ability to collaborate, communicate, and create trusting relationships is required as the work involves a lot of contact with managers and employees.

If this sounds like the right position for you, you are warmly welcome to apply!

As an employee in our administration, you are offered, among other things, wellness grants, bicycle benefits, and employee support.
