On this foundation, we operate around 60 different activities in several locations across Sweden. We have about 730 employees and work in the areas of education, youth culture, work & entrepreneurship, and role models & future optimism.

Fryshuset is looking for a Manager for Fryshuset's open leisure activity Fryschillet in Hammarby Sjöstad. Do you share Fryshuset's conviction that encouragement, trust, responsibility, and knowledge build self-esteem and bring out people's inner strength? Are you passionate about improving young people's living conditions and thrive in the role of team leader and operational manager? If so, this could be a position for you!

Fryschillet is an open activity aimed at young people in middle school and high school, providing a place for them to meet, socialize, engage, and develop within their interests and passions. The activities are based on Fryshuset's values, and we believe in the inherent power of young people!

The leisure center has a particular focus on and runs separate activities for young people with disabilities as well as those curious about LGBTQ+ issues. As a manager, you will also lead the holiday program Lovely Days. Fryschillet is closed during school holidays, and during that time, the Lovely Days program takes over. This involves close collaboration with other Fryshuset activities, and the target group is expanded to include young people aged 10-20.

The role of Manager means that you are responsible for the operational management of the activity and have a leadership responsibility for the staff. The role is broad, and your responsibilities span several areas within the operation. The work is varied and includes, among other things:

• Supporting staff in the activity and being available during emergencies and needs
• Ensuring that there is an activity plan where young people's wishes are guiding
• Ensuring that the activity is marketed
• Documentation and reporting
• Having overall responsibility for making the premises attractive, safe, and welcoming

You are responsible, solution-oriented, and have a great creative and pedagogical ability. It is essential that you have good leadership qualities, are well organized, and can work in a structured way with both planning and implementation.
