Preschool Assistant at Herresta Preschools

At the Education Administration in Järfälla Municipality, approximately 3,100 employees work in one of our 39 preschools, 22 schools, high school, adult education, and central administration. Our operations are characterized by our guiding principles: professionalism, collegiality, and development power. With courage and competence, we drive our operations forward, and we value mutual respect and understanding among colleagues. Together, we strive to make each other better, for we know that when we develop and continuously improve together, we move Järfälla forward.

Herresta Preschools consist of four preschools: Barken, Draken, Parkvägen, and Viggen. All preschools are centrally located in the growing and vibrant Barkarbystaden. Our preschools are integrated into multi-family houses, have their own yards, and at the same time have close access to nature.

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

As a preschool assistant, you will work in a group of children and step in as a substitute when regular staff are absent. The needs of the unit will completely determine how much work you will receive, and we cannot guarantee you work every day. Since our operations are mostly closed during the summer, we primarily have needs during the terms.

You should live within a reasonable distance from Järfälla to be able to reach the workplaces in a reasonable time.

The operation should be fun, safe, and educational for all children. As a preschool assistant, you work for a safe and secure environment that encourages children to play and learn. In collaboration with the team, you will implement the educational activities. You will work with all routine situations, such as meals, children's daily hygiene, dressing/undressing, educational play, cleaning, etc.

QUALIFICATIONS

We are primarily looking for someone with a preschool assistant education; if you also have previous experience working with children, we consider that an advantage.

You must enjoy and see it as a challenge to work at new workplaces and collaborate with new colleagues. Since the position requires you to quickly contribute to a good work effort, you must be able to work independently and have the ability to take your own initiatives. The job requires good social skills and a willingness to work outdoors part of the day.

As our employees work Monday to Friday on a schedule with working hours between 06:30 and 17:30, we are looking for someone who can work during these hours.

You should be able to communicate in Swedish, both spoken and written.

Before any employment can take place, a background check will be conducted. If you are offered employment with us, it is also required by law that you present a criminal record for the employment to be relevant. The criminal record is referred to as "Criminal Record for Preschool Activities/School/School Childcare" and can be ordered from the Police's website. Note that the criminal record must be a maximum of 1 year old from the date of issue.

As we often have a high number of applicants, it may sometimes take a while before we provide feedback.

We conduct interviews continuously during the application period, and the interviews will be held digitally. Welcome with your application!
