Description

Stiernhööksgymnasiet is launching an adult education program in agriculture and therefore needs to complement the teaching staff with a project-employed teacher responsible for the startup and implementation.

Initially, the adult education will focus on agricultural animals (cattle, pigs, sheep). The education aims for students to develop an ethical and safe way to work with animal welfare, barn technology, and the agricultural production requirements. The adult education will take place partially online, which imposes different requirements on planning lessons and structuring assignments.

Job Description

The position entails primary responsibility for the adult education program, but you will be part of a team of high school teachers and instructors at the school. Within adult education, distance learning and validation are common, so there is experience to rely on.

Qualifications

We are looking for someone with post-secondary education in agriculture, such as Agronomist, Agricultural Manager, or Agricultural Technician. Alternatively, you may have at least a high school level education in agriculture. The position requires good experience working with agricultural animals, but it is advantageous if you have broader knowledge in agriculture such as animal feed production and crop cultivation. As a person, we see that you are proactive and have the ability to collaborate with many different stakeholders. You are a good educator who can build structure and clarity in your teaching. You are independent, organized, and have the ability to solve problems as they arise. You enjoy working towards set goals in a quality-conscious manner and have a pedagogical approach. The job as a teacher requires good computer skills and proficiency in the Swedish language in both speech and writing.

Other

The position is a permanent position.

A criminal record extract from the police, according to the Education Act, must be presented at the time of any interview.

Selection and interviews are ongoing, so please submit your application today.
