Make a Difference. Every Day.

Do you want to be challenged and develop within a specialist psychiatric operation where clinical competence and participation are high? We are looking for a security officer for safety, premises, and renovations for our staff and management function.

The adult psychiatry area in Kristianstad offers specialist psychiatric care in northeastern and southeastern Skåne and consists of approximately 380 employees. Despite the large geographical spread, our operations are characterized by proximity and short decision-making paths. Within the area, we work on development in areas such as OCD, self-harm, eating disorders, neuropsychiatry, addiction care, treatment, patient forums, psychosis care, reduced coercion in round-the-clock care, meaningful activities within round-the-clock care, and more. Furthermore, we have a well-functioning collaboration both internally and externally with municipalities and other care providers.

Region Skåne is responsible for important community functions that must operate under all circumstances, regardless of what events occur in society. Therefore, we work with risk and vulnerability management, which includes risk management, continuity management, planning work, and feedback after events. This also means that our operations need to have a high level of security. The security work includes fire safety, access protection, threats and violence, information security, IT security, operational security, financial security, transport safety, and external environmental safety.

In the ongoing work with crisis and continuity planning, the security officer role focuses on the operational level to assist and support daily operations. Areas such as physical security, infrastructure, technical aids, and routines for handling and action are crucial to ensure the security and safety of the operation. Contact and collaboration between our own operations, other administrations, and external resources contribute to a better situational picture and greater opportunities for information and experience sharing. In this, the security officer is expected to be proactive and work towards participation in networks.

At our workplace, we value a good organizational culture, and our daily life is permeated by Region Skåne's common values: welcoming, driving, caring, and respect. We are looking for a colleague with the will and desire to develop and optimize the operation together with us!

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

As a security officer, you will lead the systematic work with security issues and fire protection and provide support and advice to managers and the existing security organization. You report directly to the operations manager with the task of joining the operations' management and staff group, which involves close collaboration with employees in management and specialist functions.

The work primarily consists of security-related tasks:

• Monitoring issues regarding dialogue/contact concerning security companies, routines, and cases.
• Technical security regarding access restrictions such as alarms, perimeter protection, access control systems, video surveillance, incidents, thefts, vandalism, lock, construction, and renovation projects, as well as responsibility for the operation's internal emergency alarms.
• Responsible for necessary documentation within the security and fire protection area and training of employees.
• Assist managers regarding coordination of issues related to the operation's premises.
• Join the administration's security group and engage in dialogue with nearby administrations' security functions.
• Be the operation's security officer in accordance with HSLF-FS 2025:52.

You may also be involved in the Crisis and Disaster Group, which means being operationally helpful in proactive work and active in the local disaster groups within the administration and with other administrations within Region Skåne.

In addition to security work, you will also handle and drive issues regarding the operation's premises and renovations.

The main placement of the position is in Kristianstad, but since adult psychiatry Kristianstad also operates in other locations in Skåne, travel within the region will be required in the position.

QUALIFICATIONS

The position requires relevant certified education or equivalent experience, as well as experience in qualified security work and premises and renovations that we deem relevant. Good language skills in Swedish, both spoken and written, are a requirement for the position. Since travel is involved in the position, a valid B driver's license is desirable but not mandatory. For the position, it may be necessary to be security classified, which means you need to be a Swedish citizen and undergo a security review.

Desirable qualifications include:

• Certified education in the area of responsibility for security, security protection, and risk and vulnerability areas or equivalent experience.
• Experience in handling incidents and familiarity with preventive measures.
• Work experience in security at an authority with high confidentiality requirements.
• Experience in the role of trainer or instructor.
• Experience from psychiatric operations.

As a person, you are humble, attentive, and enjoy collaborating. You are engaged, secure, relationship-building, and courageous, with a strong interest in both employees and operations. Additionally, you are decisive and willing to make quick decisions while also having the ability for reflection. You view change and improvement processes positively and can naturally lead, follow up, and evaluate these.

In your role, you are analytical and can work both operationally and strategically from a holistic perspective. Furthermore, you have the ability to inspire and motivate your colleagues to achieve goals and results. You do this through your communicative ability, where you create participation and understanding for the work to be done. You have a coaching approach and are driven by a desire to see your colleagues develop. We place great importance on personal suitability.

An extract from the suspicion and criminal records will be made before any employment.
