We are currently seeking hourly substitutes and summer positions for these operations throughout Botkyrka. Working hours vary greatly - including day, evening, weekend, and night shifts.

We Offer You

As a substitute, you will receive an introductory program where you will follow another employee for the first few days and learn all the tasks. Once you feel secure, you will work independently - but always in close dialogue with your manager, coordinator/administrator, and colleagues. Implementation plans and routines are part of our daily work and guide your tasks.

An employment with the Staffing Unit gives you a chance to try working in various operations such as nursing homes, home care, and various LSS operations to see where you feel most comfortable. As an employee in Botkyrka Municipality, you will have meaningful tasks and wonderful, friendly colleagues in a municipality that is far from average. Welcome to be part of an engaged team that supports each other.

Open House

We will hold open house events on two occasions at Branta Backen 8 in Tumba. Here you will have the opportunity to try out some work tasks and gain insight into what a day in health and care might look like. You will also have the chance to meet some of us who work in the Staffing Unit, who can answer questions about what it means to work as a substitute, and anything else you may wonder about regarding the position.

Warmly welcome on Tuesday, February 10, between 14:00-19:00 or Friday, March 10, between 14:00-19:00.
