The role includes a particular focus on assessment work, especially in-depth psychological assessments and neuropsychiatric assessments. There is an opportunity to work partially remotely if the operations allow it and if it is desirable from your side. We can also be flexible regarding where your workplace is located (Vetlanda or Nässjö). Supervision of PTP psychologists may also be relevant in the future. Working hours are daytime, weekdays, with a start date by agreement.
