Do you want a varied job that works every day to make a difference for Nacka's seniors? We are expanding our team and are now looking for a social welfare officer for a permanent position.
Join us and become a valuable part of our enthusiastic and creative team, where job satisfaction and a strong focus on our mission permeate our daily work!
Your Mission:
The Elderly Unit is tasked with ensuring that Nacka residents aged 65 and older receive the support they need to live under safe conditions. Through flexibility and shared responsibility, we meet our clients in an elderly care sector that faces an exciting future where we together need to find the best solutions based on demographic challenges, lessons from the pandemic, and the opportunities of welfare technology. We work towards clear goals with Nacka's seniors in focus. Our employees are our most important resource.
The Elderly Unit's social welfare officer team consists of two teams with about 17 employees in each team. In one of the teams (team two), there is also a housing coordinator responsible for placements in special housing, day activities, and short-term housing.
As a social welfare officer, your responsibilities include:
- Receiving applications, investigating, and making decisions on services for Nacka residents over 65, as well as following up on decisions, in accordance with the Social Services Act. We work with the individual's needs at the center (IBIC).
- Having extensive delegation to make decisions on most services.
- Providing relevant information and guidance, as well as informing/guiding in the choice of provider according to Nacka's customer choice.
- Collaborating internally within the municipality and externally with, for example, health care and other authorities.
- Being involved in developing the unit's work.
Is this you?
We place great importance on your personality and are looking for someone who enjoys working in a team as well as independently, and likes to share their knowledge. To thrive in this role, you should have a knack for building relationships as you will have many points of contact, both internally and externally. We hope that you are curious, creative, and enjoy development. The role requires you to have a structured working method and good prioritization skills. You work legally and have very good communication skills in both speech and writing.
We are looking for someone who has:
- A degree in social work
It is an advantage if you also have:
- Experience working in a politically governed organization.
- Experience in social welfare for the elderly.
- Experience with the IBIC working method.
- Experience with the operational system Pulsen Combine.
- A valid driver's license (B).
We offer:
You will be offered a broad and independent role. Here you will have the chance to work in a quality municipality that has openness and diversity as its vision and a fundamental value of trusting people's knowledge, will, and ability. The Elderly Unit's work is permeated by our strategy for healthy aging and being an elderly-friendly municipality.
