to apply for the job
Särnmark is one of Sweden's oldest companies in personal assistance, founded by the current owner in the early 1990s. We operate based on a clear and stated value foundation, and our main drive is to create the best conditions for individualized personal assistance based on each person's unique needs. Särnmark currently has over 3,500 employees, and our customers and staff are located all over Sweden. Särnmark's head office is in Sundbyberg, but we also have offices in other parts of Sweden.
We are now looking for a personal assistant for a lovely and playful 16-year-old girl with Down syndrome for a permanent position! We are looking for someone who wants to work with her at school, at home, short-term care, or wherever she is. The girl needs support and help with most things in her daily life, and as her assistant, you will be involved in play, training, and activities where she is. She is an active and lively girl, and as her assistant, you need to have great patience and be able to set boundaries from the start. As a personal assistant, it is important that you are an empathetic person who can quickly adapt to different situations and follow established routines regarding care and daily activities. If you are also reliable and responsible, you might be the one we are looking for!
To thrive in this challenge, it is important that you are playful and spontaneous when it comes to coming up with developing games and focus on giving her the opportunity to participate in interactions with peers. We place greater emphasis on personal suitability than experience.
Working hours are scheduled from 07:00-15:00, 15:00-21:00, 21:00-07:00 on weekdays and weekends.
If you would like to contact us regarding this position, please refer to 240923-1167.
In your application, you must state your citizenship. If you are not a citizen of Sweden, the EU, EEA, or Switzerland, you must be able to prove that you have permanent residency in Sweden to be eligible for employment at Särnmark. If you are applying for a position as a personal assistant to an adult client, you need to provide a criminal record extract. You can order the extract via the Police's website here: Police (https://polisen.se/tjanster-tillstand/belastningsregistret/kontrollera-dina-uppgifter-i-belastningsregistret/). If you are applying for a position as a personal assistant to a child under 18, you also need to provide a valid extract from the criminal record before you can start working. You can order the extract via the Police's website here: Police (https://polisen.se/tjanster-tillstand/belastningsregistret/barn-med-funktionsnedsattning/).
