Helping people achieve better health is one of the most important missions one can have. At Södra Älvsborgs Hospital (SÄS), we are 3,700 employees with 120 different professions who contribute to this every day. What role do you want to play?

Regardless of the role, we can offer you a meaningful, secure, and developing job where you make a difference for others. Our employees often say that SÄS is a "just right-sized hospital" – it is large enough to allow for development and career advancement, and small enough to foster a sense of community across departments. With us, there is a spirit of progress, and exciting initiatives and research are always underway to improve care for our patients and meet future challenges in healthcare.
