Pajala Municipality is looking for substitutes for preschools

Pajala Municipality is the large (in area) small municipality located in the land of the northern lights and midnight sun – Tornedalen, in eastern Norrbotten. Day and night, all year round, we work in the service of the community on behalf of the citizens. With Pajala Municipality's values “I exist for the citizens of Pajala”; “I am professional” and “I meet all people with openness and respect”, we strive to make a difference. Do you also want to make a difference? Then you should work with us!

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

We need substitutes for all our preschools in Pajala central, Sattajärvi, Korpilombolo, and Tärendö. Working as a substitute means that you play an important role by replacing regular staff during their absence. Usually, you will be booked for work at short notice and you will have the opportunity to work at several different workplaces. As a substitute, you are engaged, proactive, and interested in performing educational work in accordance with the preschool curriculum. As a substitute, you stimulate children's curiosity, challenge their abilities, and give them influence over their learning. In your work, you collaborate with children, colleagues, and parents in a professional manner.

We use Time Care Pool (TCP), which is Pajala Municipality's digital substitute management system. As a substitute, you have a personal calendar where you indicate which days and times you want to work. Your available time is matched against our operations' substitute needs. If we find a match, you will receive a request and then be booked, after which you will receive an SMS with information about your assignment. Your working hours are determined by the needs of the operations.

QUALIFICATIONS

To work as a substitute, you must have a diploma from completed upper secondary education. Work experience and/or relevant education is an advantage. Your background determines the type of employment and position you have as a substitute. It is advantageous if you have a driver's license and regular access to a car. As a person, you are flexible, enjoy a varied environment, and are responsible. You have a positive attitude, can take initiative, and find it easy to collaborate.

The person offered employment must, according to the Education Act (2010:800), provide a current extract from the criminal record (according to the law 1998:620 on criminal records). We also always request references from all applicants who are shortlisted for an interview. You can already order an extract from the criminal record to expedite the recruitment process.

Pajala Municipality is part of the administrative area for Meänkieli and Finnish, therefore it is advantageous if you have knowledge of either or both of these languages.

We actively work for gender equality and diversity in our workplaces. Therefore, we welcome applicants who contribute to this.

Advertising and recruitment companies are kindly declined.
