Are you looking for a job where you can develop and grow as a person? And at the same time help another person do the same?

Then you should apply as a substitute personal assistant with our client in Vellinge center. We are looking for someone who wants to work night shifts from 15:00 to 09:00. We now need to expand our team with a substitute and are looking for someone who is responsible and engaged in their work, while also being humble and secure as a person. This is an important and meaningful job where you, as an assistant, enable our client to have a meaningful day – every day!

The client is a young man, 26 years old, who has autism and an intellectual disability. As an assistant, you need to be attentive and adaptable. You need to approach the work with a strong desire to understand our client and his needs, and with great respect for his integrity. You need to be engaged and communicative as it is very important for the client to both be understood and have the opportunity to understand based on his conditions. You need to be calm and sometimes able to handle moments of passivity.

We have a team around our client, but we need to expand it and are looking for someone who collaborates with colleagues and has a pedagogical mindset. You can guide and motivate when needed while also being able to step back when necessary. Your tasks include supporting and empowering the client in daily activities, planning and structuring through the client's visual support. We actively work with visual support as part of creating predictability and clarity in daily life. For our client, visual support is a compass in life.

The role and experience of the assistant
You should be a positive and solution-focused person. It is important that you are secure in yourself and have a great deal of personal maturity. It is a significant advantage if you have experience, knowledge, and understanding of working with individuals on the autism spectrum. The right personal qualities constitute a large part of suitability. You will receive an introduction that will be continuously followed up, and we will create a joint plan so that you and the client feel secure together.

The introduction includes attending our introductory training and then continuing with our other training sessions. The trainings are mandatory and an important part of giving you the competence and tools to truly succeed in your work. Flexibility regarding working hours is something that is required, and this is of course something that is mutual. You are an important resource for us, which means we value you and your free time, but sometimes it will be necessary for you to step in at short notice during your colleagues' absence. We believe in strong teamwork, which is created through availability, presence, and helpfulness at all levels. The working hours will be from 15:00 to 09:00 awake night. Since the client has a car that is actively used in daily life, it is required that you have a driver's license.
