A proud history and ambitious future plans. Perhaps that is why the drive to grow, change, and develop is so strong. It is also why it is so exciting to work here. With us, you will be part of a friendly and unpretentious culture where we help each other and make the most of each other's knowledge, differences, and experiences. The work is often varied, sometimes challenging, but always meaningful. Welcome!
The Social Administration has a broad area of responsibility that includes authority exercises and preventive measures, with a reception and investigation unit, outpatient care, family law, financial assistance, and an operational unit working with preventive measures.

JOB DESCRIPTION
Do you want to work in a unit characterized by satisfaction, a good balance between work and leisure, broad competence, and where we care for each other? Then you should apply to us at the Investigation Unit for children and youth!
We are responsible for investigating children's needs for protection and support, granting measures according to delegation, and following up on granted measures. The unit consists of three groups, two of which work with investigations and one with follow-up measures. We are now looking for social workers for both the investigation groups and the intervention group.
There is a wide range of cases, and we dare to promise that you will learn something new every day! The high collective competence within the administration, along with the large number of internal training sessions, means that you always have the opportunity to develop. If you want to try something new or participate in business development, we will make it happen.
We know that social workers often have a vulnerable position, and therefore we work hard to improve the work environment in our administration together. We care for each other and support one another and would love for you to enjoy having a common lunch or coffee break from time to time.
To support you in your work, you will have accessible and present managers as well as an experienced and cheerful group of colleagues. Additionally, we have central support functions such as process leaders, senior social workers, placement secretaries, and SIP coordinators linked to the unit. They act as sounding boards for you and your colleagues, relieve pressure, and ensure high quality and safety in case management. Our senior social worker and process leader guarantee a thorough and individual introduction regardless of whether you have worked in the profession for several years or are new. We work to involve the network around our children and youth and have several network team leaders.

- A degree in social work,
- Good knowledge of the Swedish language in both speech and writing,
- Experience in working with investigations or follow-ups for children and youth within social services.
- A driver's license is an advantage as we travel a lot in the job.
We place great importance on personal suitability. As a person, you are structured and organize and plan your work well, which allows you to complete what you have started and you find it important to meet deadlines. You are a stable person who can remain calm in stressful situations and chooses to see solutions rather than problems. You collaborate well with others and have the ability to create and maintain relationships. You are flexible, attentive, and communicate in a constructive manner.
