Job Responsibilities

We at Resursteam Heder are looking for a (fixed-term) employee whose work will be directed towards professionals within the Labor Market and Social Administration, assisting with consultations and support in the investigative work within Child and Family Investigation, Reception BoF, and Youth Investigation.

This assignment is fixed-term from May to December 2025, as Resursteam Heder has received financial resources to strengthen support directed towards the aforementioned. In the core assignment of Resursteam Heder, employees assist professionals with consultations to assess whether there is a risk that the child/youth lives in an honor context/honor violence and thus risks not having their human rights met. Part of this work has been to develop a screening tool and support material to be used in the investigative work within Child and Family Investigation, Reception BoF, and Youth Investigation.

Consultations currently mainly take place via phone. The effect we hope to achieve by being present is that more children/youths who are in an honor-related issue are detected and thus offered interventions that meet their needs for support/protection.

Additionally, you should have experience in investigative work according to Patriark. It is advantageous if you also have training/knowledge of the assessment tool HEVA.

We place great importance on having good collaboration skills, caring for others, and being a team player. You should have a good ability to listen and show understanding for professional questions, concerns, and dilemmas. You should have a good demeanor and the ability to quickly build good relationships with others.

To thrive in the role of social worker, it is important that you are self-driven and take responsibility for your tasks.
