Coordinator in Child and Youth Family Treatment

Jönköping Municipality is a large employer with hundreds of different job roles. We are growing as the city develops with more residents, more housing, and a larger range of services. We are always on the lookout for new talent - employees with diverse backgrounds and experiences, united by the common drive to create a better city to visit, live, work, and reside in.

Your New Job

We are currently in an exciting restart phase within the Resource area and are therefore looking for another coordinator for our operations. As a coordinator, you will lead one of our groups of about 10 people and be part of a management team with a total of two managers and three coordinator colleagues.

You will plan, lead, and support individual practitioners in their daily work, but also develop and drive processes at the group level. You will also provide managerial support in certain areas. Collaboration with authorities and their caseworkers is a significant and important part, and you are also expected to have some client contact.

We work with children and youth aged 0-20 years and their families/networks. The group you are expected to lead primarily works with younger age groups. Collaboration with external actors such as schools and healthcare is common. Currently, we only work with assistance decisions, but due to the new social services act, it may be that we will also work with non-assistance cases in the future.

Your Qualifications

You who are applying are a social worker, social pedagogue, behavioral scientist, or have another higher education that the employer assesses as equivalent. Experience in management, treatment work within the field of children, youth, and families is an advantage. Knowledge of methods that align with our working methods is also a plus.

As a person, you are independent, structured, and flexible. You have good collaboration skills, take responsibility, and work from a holistic perspective with a focus on the right things. Other qualities you need to have are that you are secure, stable, and communicative.

Good knowledge of the Swedish language is a requirement, including reading, writing, and speaking.

In the recruitment process, we will place great emphasis on personal suitability.

Driving license B is a requirement for the position.
