Helping people achieve better health is one of the most important missions one can have. At Södra Älvsborg Hospital (SÄS), we are 3,700 employees with 120 different professions who contribute to this every day. What role do you want to play?

Regardless of your role, we can offer you a meaningful, secure, and developing job where you make a difference for others.
