Vacant job

About Me:

I am a fun, lively, and active 13-year-old girl who loves speed and adventure! I live on the southern side of Stockholm, but I also often hang out in the city where more happens. I enjoy being active and experiencing new things - life should be fun!

I have a tracheostomy (“trach”) and therefore need double assistance around the clock. It is important for me that everything runs smoothly so I can focus on living my life - my way. As my assistant, you need to be able to collaborate easily with both me and my other assistants.

I want you to be attentive and alert, but also know when to take a step back and let me have my own space. The workplace is wherever I am - it could be at home, out in the city, at school, with friends, or on outings.

If you can sign language, that is a big plus, but it is not a requirement.

About You:

Are you a caring, secure, and flexible woman with good teamwork skills? Then you might be exactly who I am looking for!

I want you to be smoke-free and adaptable to different situations. You need to be present and attentive, but at the same time understand that you are there to support me in my life - not to control it.

It is important that you work well in a larger team and can step in for colleagues when needed. You will work both day, evening, awake night, and weekends according to a rotating schedule, so you should enjoy varied working hours.

The Position:

The position starts as a temporary employment so we can get to know each other. After a while, there is the possibility of a permanent position of about 70-75% with a rotating schedule around the clock.

Does this sound like something for you? Then I hope you want to be a part of my team - so we can make everyday life both safe, fun, and full of adventure together!

To be hired, you must present valid ID, any documents that prove your right to work in Sweden, and a police record extract. This can be ordered at www.polisen.se (https://www.polisen.se). Choose the extract titled Work with children with disabilities.

Staffing:

This position includes an extended (and paid) staffing assignment which means that some weeks you must be reachable at times other than working hours, to call in a substitute or step in to assist when intervention is required. This is Assistans i Balans's way of ensuring that our clients always have a familiar assistant by their side. The assignment is shared by all assistants working according to a regular schedule.
