Vacant job

Ref: 20250014

Do you want to be part of a team that makes a real difference in people's daily lives? Do you enjoy working in a place that genuinely prioritizes job satisfaction and development opportunities? Are you a licensed occupational therapist? Then we have the perfect role for you!

We offer you this

You will be welcomed into a large group of competent occupational and physiotherapists who work together to make patients' daily lives easier and better. You will have a job where you have a significant influence over your working hours and you will have time to be present with your patients. We allocate tasks daily to ensure a reasonable workload, and your colleagues are never far away if you need to discuss something. Here, you are also encouraged to develop in your role, and we view professional development positively. In the city of Malmö, there is a wide range of different courses, lectures, and further education that you will have the opportunity to attend. There are also many support functions that you can always turn to with questions.

We welcome both experienced candidates and those who have recently graduated. You will receive an individually tailored and thorough introduction with a strong focus on helping you settle into your work effectively. With us, you will find a workplace characterized by joy, solution focus, and helpfulness. We hope you want to be part of our team where we together make a difference for the residents of Malmö!

Job Responsibilities

As an occupational therapist in our organization, we support patients in their own homes. We create conditions for Malmö residents to live as independently and meaningfully as possible. To achieve this, you will work with rehabilitation, training, and assistive devices – all aimed at providing opportunities for a healthier and safer life. We prioritize being present with the patient, and we often follow patients over a longer period, allowing us to see their development up close.

We often conduct our patient visits in pairs (an occupational therapist and a physiotherapist), and you will have responsibility for a specific area. We travel to home visits by bike or car, and our patient group consists of adults over 20 years old. The work is very varied as you meet people with different diagnoses, backgrounds, challenges, and needs. Whether you are newly graduated or have many years of experience in your profession, you will develop and learn new things in our organization.

Qualifications

We are looking for you who are a licensed occupational therapist. You need to be able to bike to get around to our patients, and you will receive your own work bicycle. If you have a driver's license, that is advantageous, and you will have access to a car if needed. You need to be proficient in Swedish, both spoken and written, to communicate with colleagues and patients as well as to document. If you have experience in municipal operations, it will be helpful for your introduction, but the most important thing is that you are eager to learn, have a good attitude, and are solution-focused. With us, you work with people, so it is also important that you are flexible, communicative, and enjoy collaborating with others.
