We are looking for a Migration Assistant for the Reception Unit in Halmstad

At the Swedish Migration Agency, we work with one of the major societal issues of our time – migration. In total, we are about 6,000 people here, and we have an unusually important job!

We offer an environment characterized by meeting people and varied tasks.

What does a Migration Assistant do?

As a Migration Assistant, you will work with registering and managing applications as well as handling documents and records in document and case management systems. You will handle mail, archive, and release public documents after confidentiality assessment. Additionally, you will work with administrative tasks related to asylum investigations for applicants.

In your role, you will meet and have conversations with people who have a case at the Migration Agency and other stakeholders. The conversations may involve informing about the Migration Agency's processes or guiding and providing service.

The role of a Migration Assistant means that you will come into contact with various types of questions daily. This, in turn, means that you can quickly acquire knowledge that is often very valuable for your continued career within the Migration Agency. If you thrive in an administratively oriented role where both the volume and quality of your delivery are of great importance, then this is the role for you.

Who are you?

We are looking for someone who is structured and can independently plan and organize work effectively towards set goals and deadlines. You are service-oriented and accommodating in your interactions with both colleagues, applicants, and other stakeholders. Furthermore, you have good collaboration skills, are attentive, and resolve conflicts constructively. You communicate clearly and ensure that messages are conveyed and that expectations are clear for all parties involved.

In our work as civil servants, high demands are also placed on judgment and a high level of security and confidentiality awareness.

You who are applying have

• High school education or other education deemed equivalent by the employer
• Experience in administrative work that the employer considers relevant
• Experience in work requiring good service
• Good communication skills and express yourself well in speech and writing in Swedish
