Vacant job

At the Swedish Migration Agency, we work with one of the major societal issues of our time – migration. We are approximately 6,000 people here, and we have an unusually important job!

We are looking for detention supervisors for the detention center in Mölndal for summer temporary positions.

At a detention unit, individuals who have received a deportation or expulsion decision and need to be available for enforcement are placed. A person can also be detained if their right to reside in the country or identity needs to be investigated. The detention center is a closed unit and operates around the clock. The work is based on current legislation where legal security, dignity, and safety are important.

As an employee of the Swedish Migration Agency, you can expect a rewarding job in a dynamic environment characterized by a focus on continuous improvement, collaboration, and respect for individuals. At the Swedish Migration Agency, you make a difference and contribute to societal benefit while enjoying a secure and stable employment.

What does a detention supervisor do?

The role includes work with service, monitoring, searches, and security. You conduct conversations during, for example, admission and discharge, as well as to inform about decisions. You pay attention to and address any special needs of the detainees and organize activities for them. Furthermore, you ensure a calm, safe, and secure environment in the detention center by performing security checks and searches. Participation in transports, responsibility for food handling, and some administration are also part of the job. The work can be physically demanding at times.

In summary, the role of a detention supervisor is versatile, varied, and developmental, suitable for those who want to work in the intersection of service and security where no day is the same.

Who are you?

As the work environment is dynamic, you need to be stable and secure even in stressful or pressured situations, maintain a realistic perspective, and focus on the right things. You thrive on variety and can easily adapt and change your viewpoint and approach when circumstances change.

In our work as civil servants, high demands are also placed on judgment and a strong awareness of security and confidentiality. It is important that you act in accordance with decisions made, the operational plan, goals, policies, and guidelines.
