About the role

Fryshuset's exit program in Stockholm is looking for a Client Coach who wants to work with criminal dropouts in need of societal support and protection. The program targets individuals aged 18 and older. Your mission is to provide support and guidance to individuals who want to leave a criminal lifestyle or a violent extremist group.

You will create a good alliance with the clients and offer practical support throughout the dropout process. This may include assistance with housing, protection, education, employment, and contact with authorities. You will work to strengthen the individual's self-esteem, break destructive patterns, and create a plan for a life outside of crime.

The work alternates between holding change conversations with clients and practically preparing a home for a new placement – this variation makes the job both meaningful and dynamic. We work with interventions according to the Social Services Act and have documentation obligations. Together with the client, we design and document implementation plans. Weekend work and on-call duties in the evenings and weekends may occur in this position.

Who are you?

We are looking for someone with personal maturity, patience, and a clear professional boundary in working with clients. You can handle various changing situations and needs that arise in the program with good flexibility. You enjoy working both independently and in a team, and you understand the importance of working according to given safety routines.
