Support Assistant for Vinkelgatan's LSS Residence

Höör is located in the heart of Skåne, has good train connections, beautiful nature, 17,000 inhabitants, and a steady population increase. With around 1,400 employees, Höör Municipality is the largest employer. Many of our employees commute here.

As an employee of Höör Municipality, you will have the opportunity to work in an organization that is constantly evolving. We place great value on responsiveness and work together to create a good work environment through open and constructive dialogue, respect, and tolerance towards colleagues and citizens. A high service spirit, professionalism, and commitment characterize our organization.

Vinkelgatan's group home is a residence that is partly characterized by an increasingly older target group. The work primarily involves care work and the execution of various HSL assignments. Some residents are younger and have different demands for activities and social content, so the residence must be able to accommodate the entire spectrum of residents within LSS. Does this sound exciting? Welcome with your application!
