Do you want to help develop our organization?

Welcome to Åstorp – the Söderåsstaden with the courage to try new paths.

Åstorp is strategically located in northwestern Skåne with proximity to nature. Here, there are opportunities for wonderful experiences, as nature and culture are hallmarks of the municipality.

Åstorp is experiencing positive growth with approximately 16,500 inhabitants. Excellent road and rail connections facilitate commuting.

We offer an attractive workplace where everyone can make a difference. We value the quality that respect and diversity bring. The municipality actively works with health-promoting initiatives and has, for example, a tobacco-free working time.

Åstorp is part of the Family Helsingborg, which offers good opportunities for cross-municipal collaboration and development.

The Social Administration consists of individual and family care, functional support, elderly care, and municipal health care. The administration has 350 permanent employees.

The administration has the ultimate responsibility for ensuring that the residents of Åstorp receive the support and assistance they need to live an independent life. We work with the mission to support people towards better living conditions and increased independence.

We have initiated Social Administration 2.0, an improvement journey focusing on culture, structure, and leadership/employee relations, aiming to enhance the quality of all our operations and to be an attractive employer. With us, you will have a meaningful and developing job with opportunities for personal growth.

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

As a development leader with us, you have a key role in driving, coordinating, and process-leading organizational development. You are a close support to the management in achieving our goals.

You will primarily work with:

• Operational management as support to achieve our goals; committee goals, financial goals, quality goals, and work environment goals.
• Leading and coordinating the administration's transition to the new social services act.
• Leading the work to increase the administration's ability to operate in crisis and war.

The role represents the administration in three cross-municipal groups; sustainability, digitalization, and analysis. The role is also the process leader for our local care and nursing college as well as for the Professional Journey. The administration's overall collaboration with the education administration is coordinated by the development leaders in both administrations.

The role includes monitoring the external environment, summarizing, and producing materials such as routines, consultation responses, and writings. You are part of a working group with MAS and SAS, directly subordinate to the head of administration.

The development leader is often in the committee and management as a presenter. The focus areas for the role change as needed; for example, tasks related to the new social services act and crisis and war will be implemented in the operations gradually.
