Do you want to be part of Region Jämtland Härjedalen?

A region to long for and grow in? With us, you contribute to development and growth throughout the county and work to provide the best possible service, care, and support for everyone who lives in or visits the region. We offer a work environment characterized by collaboration, participation, and commitment, where both breadth and specialist competence are valued. Here you will have the opportunity to develop in your role, whether you are new to the profession or have long experience.

In the Secretariat unit, we are specialists focused on supporting elected representatives, executive management, and case handlers in developing and ensuring an efficient and legally secure case management process. The unit includes the region's consolidated committee administration, central registry, environmental strategists, and environmental case handlers.

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

With us, you are welcomed into an organization characterized by commitment, broad knowledge, and collaboration. You will have a central and important role where you work closely with elected representatives and top executive management. You will be part of a creative workgroup with the opportunity to develop in many areas. You will work both with region-wide assignments and with more specific operational issues. Would you also like to join our ongoing journey to develop democratic work and streamline our methods? Then you should definitely take the chance and apply to us!

Your responsibilities include planning and conducting committee meetings. You will send out invitations and write minutes but are also an important support to the chair during the meeting. You will coordinate and ensure the quality of the preparation process for the committee's matters and contribute to ensuring that elected representatives receive the support needed to make correct and well-prepared decisions. With us, you will have a strategic role, and your tasks will also include independently preparing matters, conducting qualified investigative work, participating in various development projects, and providing support in strategic issues. The position will be partially adapted based on the profile and experience you have as an applicant.

Within Region Jämtland Härjedalen, a transformation journey is underway where we want to streamline and find new ways in our processes. For the Secretariat, this means reviewing how the case management process can be streamlined and developed. You are expected to contribute ideas on how we can work differently together with colleagues. An important part of this work is also the ongoing review of the political organization that the Secretariat is holding together ahead of the 2026 election.
