Vacant job

At God Assistans, we are looking for a dedicated and responsible personal assistant to support and facilitate daily life for Axel. Caring is the foundation of everything we do and is essential to provide the best possible personal assistance. We are currently seeking a passionate individual who wants to become a valuable part of our team.

As a personal assistant, you will work with Axel, a lively 12-year-old boy. He was born with a brain injury, which means he needs help with most aspects of life. He uses a wheelchair and communicates with picture and text programs on his iPad. He is an active boy, and if you have experience with training, that is a plus as exercise is a necessity for Axel in his daily life.

A work shift includes, among other things:

• Assisting with most daily activities, including personal hygiene, interacting and communicating with his surroundings, and playing.
• It is important to be active; we have many active leisure activities, and Axel has a lot of movement training that needs to be performed daily.
• Helping him with everyday tasks such as getting dressed/undressed.
• Swimming ability is a must (comfortable enough to swim with Axel, even in deep water); being able to skate is a plus.
• Ensuring he has dinner by heating food and assisting him at the dining table.
• Accompanying Axel to his activities such as horseback riding, swimming, and framerunning, or just playing games. He loves to play music (instruments).

As you can see, he is a very active boy, so it is important that you enjoy finding things to do and can encourage activities.

We are looking for someone who:

• Is over 18 years old
• Speaks fluent Swedish and has good communication skills
• Is flexible
• Is smoke-free
• Is attentive to needs and feelings
• Experience with intellectual disabilities is a significant advantage but not a requirement.
• Can swim.
• Is a secure person with good self-esteem.
• Has a playful nature and wants to fill his time with both security and laughter.

Working hours:

Weekdays (in school with Axel) 07-16, evenings 16-21
Weekends 09-21, every other weekend.

What you get:

• We have a collective agreement, and you are insured during working hours.
• Individually adjusted salary.
• Wellness allowance of up to 4000 SEK/year.
• Support in the form of training and introductory sessions for you as a newcomer.

In accordance with God Assistans Policy, we require background checks from ALL employees. You will order the background check yourself (according to God Assistans policy, we require the background check for work with LSS from the police's website; the form can be found here: Children with disabilities, e-service | Swedish Police Authority (polisen.se)

We will want to see a copy of your passport (SV) or residence card (EU) or residence and work permit/LMA card (outside EU).
