Workplace Description

The City of Stockholm organizes summer camp activities for children, youth, and young adults with disabilities.

Our summer camp locations are situated in beautiful natural environments in Norrtälje and Sörmland. Attending camp means a change of environment, fun outdoor activities, and social interaction with others for our participants. For relatives, it provides relief in everyday life. Many of our employees have worked at our camps for a long time and return annually. Working as a camp leader is rewarding and educational, as you contribute to providing our participants with a wonderful and memorable holiday filled with joy and relaxation.

We are now seeking staff for our Björkängen camp during the Easter holiday in 2026.

We are looking for someone who enjoys working with others and wants to help create a meaningful stay for our participants.
