Welcome to us at Hässelby-Vällingby district administration

We are looking for someone who has a strong commitment to the best interests of the child and who wants to help shape and develop the eviction prevention work with a clear focus on the child perspective.

Come and be part of our innovative team where we work to create sustainable solutions for those who need it the most.

Right now, a lot of development work is underway to align with the new legislation coming into effect this summer – do you want to be part of the front line in Hässelby-Vällingby? We want to strengthen the administration's eviction prevention work from a child rights perspective. Your main focus will be to ensure that the child is a central figure in our work. You will support our three current eviction preventers and contribute ideas and suggestions for new methods to strengthen the child rights perspective in our work.

The position is located within the adult reception unit and is a fixed-term employment until 2025-12-31.

Job Responsibilities

• Explore new methods together with the regular work group that ensures that the child rights perspective permeates our eviction prevention work.
• Create an internal structure to guide parents to parenting support measures within the preventive unit.
• Focus on the three perspectives within child rights:

• Child Rights Perspective: How society's actions and laws can ensure that children's rights are respected and fulfilled.
• Child Perspective: A perspective where the child's best interests and needs are at the center of decision-making and actions.
• Child's Perspective: How children themselves experience and understand their situation, their voices and experiences are considered and prioritized in all decisions.

As an eviction preventer, you will be an important piece of the puzzle to ensure that our work makes a difference for the families we meet.

This is what it’s like to work with us:

"With the new social services act approaching, we are facing exciting opportunities to shape the future of social services. In Hässelby-Vällingby SDF, every employee can contribute their unique perspective, develop, and dare to try new things – always with the best interests of the child in focus."

- Pernilla Takacs, area manager first line

“With us in Hässelby-Vällingby SDF, a relatively new team works on eviction prevention issues. Here, we value employees' experiences and want to find new and innovative ways to collaborate for the best interests of the children.”

- Linda Björkman, Unit Manager first line/Adult Reception

We are looking for someone who has:
