Vacant job

Värmdö is the meeting place of the archipelago with a unique combination of the serene beauty of nature and a more urban lifestyle. Our mission is not one but many: schools, real estate, social services, ports, healthcare, libraries, care, and many more. We strive to ensure that all residents of Värmdö can live a rich and free life. We want to be the ones who enable the dream of a vibrant and safe environment for homes, families, and businesses.

To succeed fully, we need many and extensive competencies and work together for a common and trusting work culture, built on brave, responsible employees who understand the needs and wishes of the residents. This is what we call One Värmdö, One Administration.

Young in Värmdö is a unit within the Culture and Leisure Office focused on creating participation, influence, and meaningful leisure together with the young residents of Värmdö.

Through a supportive leadership, meetings and contexts are formed where young individuals have the opportunity to grow and create trusting relationships in the community. In the unit, we work based on different areas of operation:

• Open youth activities. Based on geographical distribution, Young in Värmdö offers meeting places that conduct leader-led open youth activities during young people's leisure time; Runda huset in Gustavsberg, Tomtebo in Hemmesta, and Brunnen on Ingarö. Young in Värmdö also provides a digital-oriented activity and culture [at]Lobbyn as well as a completely digital meeting place.
• Short-term supervision. Young in Värmdö conducts short-term supervision, Tomtebo KTT, for school students over 12 years old according to the Act (1993:387) on support and service for certain disabled persons (LSS) 9 § 7. The KTT activity is partly included with the assignment for open youth activities.
• Youth dialogue. Within the framework of youth dialogue, the municipality's youth council VKung works to contribute a youth perspective in various issues and projects through democratic processes, and act as a spokesperson between politicians and young people. Quick cash allows young people to apply for funding to run activities aimed at other young people.

For our short-term supervision, Tomtebo KTT, we are looking for a need-based leisure resource to support a young person with greater support needs.
