Vacant job

Are you interested in dogs and want to work extra on weekends and weekdays to help another person manage their daily life?

We at Vår Omtanke are now looking for a personal assistant who wants to work with one of our clients living in Jakobsberg, 17 minutes by train from Odenplan, 10 minutes walking distance from the station. In this role, you will make a difference in people's lives and work with us towards our vision – Everyone has the right to a good life.

About the client

The client is a woman in her 40s living in a villa in Jakobsberg with her husband and two dogs. She has a neurological disease that affects the function of her muscles and therefore needs an assistant who can be her arms and legs to manage her daily life. This includes everything from transfers, personal hygiene to household chores and training the dogs together with the client. She has a great interest in environmental and social issues, and her days are largely spent on daily chores, taking care of the dogs' health (e.g., brushing teeth, drying paws, brushing fur, etc.) and training the dogs in everyday obedience. It is important that you are:

• A woman
• Humble
• Solution-oriented
• Fluent in writing and speaking Swedish
• Dog-interested and comfortable handling dogs.
• Experienced in managing a home and household
• 25 years old or older
• A driver's license and access to a car is a plus but not a requirement

No previous experience in healthcare is needed. Personal chemistry will be the deciding factor.

What do you get?

Health benefits, training, introduction, and a wonderful client to work with. We have a collective agreement and a close working approach.

Working hours and employment rate:

The position is primarily as a substitute on weekends and during the absence of regular assistants, but there may be a permanent position of about 50% in the future. Shifts are scheduled from 8 AM to 6:30 PM on weekdays (it is possible to split them into 8 AM-1 PM and 1 PM-6:30 PM) and on weekends from 9 AM to 4 PM. Occasionally, we may also need someone for evening shifts and sometimes even night shifts with sleeping duty. You cannot bring your dog to work. It is possible to get fixed weekend shifts on a rolling schedule right after a short trial period.

Salary: Fixed hourly wage according to agreement, other compensations are according to collective agreement.

Start date: According to agreement
