Together, we are developing Sahlgrenska University Hospital for a sustainable future. We are transforming healthcare with the goal of becoming Europe's leading university hospital by 2032. Together with patients, we work for quality, accessibility, patient safety, research, education, and innovation – in a cohesive healthcare system in the Västra Götaland region. Our vision and goals aim for care of the highest quality, where the patient is always in focus. We provide healthcare locally and regionally, but also highly specialized care to patients across the country and abroad. Our employees are our strength, contributing to knowledge exchanges nationally and internationally. With digital tools and new working methods, we can simplify daily operations at the hospital and offer modern, accessible, and efficient care of the highest quality.

About the Workplace

Sahlgrenska University Hospital (SU) is one of Europe's largest university hospitals, with over 16,000 employees and several national healthcare assignments.

In addition to healthcare, our mission includes conducting research, education, and development in close collaboration with several external actors, primarily the Sahlgrenska Academy at the University of Gothenburg.

The hospital's operations are organized into six areas, as well as a hospital-wide administration. Queen Silvia's Children's Hospital and Women's Health belong to Area 1. The area consists of eight operational areas and is led by an area manager. The functions for HR, finance, and development are part of the staff located at Östra Hospital. About ten HR specialists work in the HR department.

Sahlgrenska University Hospital is in a development phase, with several different change initiatives to achieve the overarching goal of becoming Europe's leading university hospital by 2032, and HR plays an important role in contributing to the transformation.

Job Responsibilities

Teamwork also allows for deeper engagement in specific areas, such as work environment or competence supply.
