Vacant job

About Me:

I am a 28-year-old guy living with my brother in Annedal, Bromma, on the border of Sundbyberg. You can easily reach me by public transport, bike, or a walk if you live in Sumpan, Solna, or Bromma. I am humorous, social, and enjoy watching movies.

I work at a Daily Activity center during the day, and my assistants naturally accompany me. On weekends, I usually engage in fun activities with my brother, who also has assistance, or sometimes with a friend. For example, we often go to the swimming pool.

I am involved in the recruitment process and carefully choose my assistants, so I look forward to your application.

About You:

You are used to working awake nights and understand the importance of being active and solution-oriented. Some nights I need more support from you than others, and I want to feel that you are there providing me with security.

It is very important that you are comfortable with the Swedish language, both spoken and written. My assistants support me with everything in my daily life, so it is important that you also help me communicate in various situations, such as during medical visits or when I need to try out new aids at the assistive technology center. Not least so that you can understand your work and perform it well and safely.

Note! It is important that you are not allergic to pets since my brother and I have a cat, and my parents have dogs that often visit us. It is certainly a plus if you like our animals (who are very friendly).

Desired Qualities:

• You enjoy being social at work with me
• Attention to detail and good organizational skills
• Good memory for details
• Calm without being slow
• Empathetic in what you do
• Quick and alert in your personality
• You, like me, think it is important to be on time for work
• Ability to juggle multiple tasks simultaneously
• You can work from written instructions without any problems

It is a big plus if you have experience or knowledge in AAC. I believe that the best fit for these positions is someone 25 years or older who has previously worked awake nights.

It is important to me that you have worked as a personal assistant during awake nights before and understand the importance of being active and attentive.

Staffing:

This position may include an extended (and compensated) staffing responsibility, which means that some weeks you must be reachable at times other than working hours to call in a substitute or step in yourself when intervention is required. This is Assistans i Balans's way of ensuring that our clients always have a familiar assistant by their side. The assignment is shared by all assistants working on a regular schedule.

The Position:

The work involves both single and double assistance, where collaboration is important both with me and my other assistants.

Right now, I am looking for two people who will primarily work active night shifts (awake nights) with the possibility of stepping in for extra shifts during the day, evening, and weekends if a colleague becomes ill. The positions are planned to be around 50%, but we can discuss other possibilities if you wish. Please indicate in your application how you would like to work.

You will receive thorough training, ongoing supervision, and further education from Balans, who will be your employer.

Salary:

Individual salary setting.

Agreement:

Fremia-Communal

Please be ready with references if you are called for an interview.
