Torsås Municipality is looking for an Administrative Employee

Torsås Municipality - a municipality with proximity and quality of life in southern Kalmar County. The municipality, with about 7,000 inhabitants, can be described as a miniature Sweden. Here you will find the sea, the coast, beaches, plains, lakes, and forests. The economy is dominated by the manufacturing industry but also has great potential in tourism and other areas. Here we can offer a high quality of life with proximity and great security for residents and visitors. Torsås Municipality has five administrations and two wholly owned companies.

In Torsås Municipality, we dare to come up with new solutions, think big thoughts, and present exciting ideas. To succeed, we work closely together. We collaborate towards a common goal; to provide everyone living here with the best conditions for a good life. Our closeness to each other is evident in how we utilize each other's strengths. The close cooperation between administrations and operations also means that there is never a long way between employees and managers, which in turn leads to short decision-making paths and close collaboration.

The values of Torsås Municipality are based on the words Participation, Development, Clarity, and Security. This approach is demonstrated by every employee and elected representative in their daily work and in meetings with citizens and clients.
