Student Assistant for the Financial Stability Department

We are now looking for a student assistant for the Financial Stability Department for the autumn of 2025. The recruitment is supported by the Agreement on Terms for Fixed-Term Employment as a Student Assistant.

The department is responsible for the Swedish National Debt Office's work to counteract risks of serious disruptions in the financial system. This responsibility includes managing banks and central counterparties in crisis, known as the resolution mandate. We are also responsible for the government deposit guarantee and investor protection. We work to ensure that financial companies in crisis are managed in a stability-preserving and cost-effective manner for the state, without burdening taxpayers. As the responsible party for the deposit guarantee, the department also plays a central role in consumer protection in the financial market. A large part of the department's ongoing operations involves planning and maintaining preparedness for future crises. The department also participates in international work within its areas of responsibility. The department currently consists of just over 25 people.

Secondary Employment and Securities Holdings

As a government employee, you must act impartially and objectively. It is important that employees' impartiality cannot be questioned, thereby undermining trust in the operations of the National Debt Office. Therefore, as an employee, you must report both your secondary employment and your holdings of securities. You need to apply for permission for transactions in credit institutions, such as the purchase of bank shares, before trading occurs.

Security-Classified Position

As an employee at the National Debt Office, you may be placed in a war position based on the needs of total defense. Certain roles are classified for security, and Swedish citizenship may therefore be a requirement.
