Want to work with us?

Welcome with your application via the link below. Selection and interviews may take place during the application period.

Region Uppsala values the qualities that a balanced gender distribution and diversity bring to the organization. We therefore welcome applicants of all genders and with different backgrounds, abilities, and life experiences.

Region Uppsala will place all permanent staff based on the needs of total defense. This means that for the individual employee, there are no obligations in peacetime, but it is solely a planning measure.

Background checks against suspicion and criminal records will be conducted for all individuals that the employer intends to hire or engage for patient-related work, based on the possibility that they may work in psychiatric care, habilitation, care of children and youth, or compulsory care of substance abusers, areas that are covered by optional record extracts. This applies to all who will work closely with patients even if the tasks are not primarily intended to include work with the above-mentioned patient groups.

This recruitment is conducted entirely through Region Uppsala's management. We therefore kindly ask recruitment companies and advertisement sellers not to call.
