The counseling group consists of six positions. This position encompasses a 100% permanent employment. There is an option to have a leave of absence service, which means you will receive 0.92% of your salary if you are under 40 years old and 0.95% of your salary if you are over 40 years old, and you will then be off during Christmas and summer holidays. If you do not want this option, it is a vacation service. A wellness allowance of 1200 SEK per year is available.

We offer you mentoring support from an experienced colleague during your employment, regular collegial support in your professional group, and external supervision together with others in the counseling group.
