About the Job

We are looking for someone who wants to provide support and service related to the democratic decision-making process, government authority, and the regulatory legislation surrounding this.

You will work alongside the management of the administration and key personnel, as well as elected politicians in the board.

The board secretaries work as a team and are jointly responsible for the political case process. The core of the assignment is case preparation for meetings with the board and committees, and the work includes administrative tasks related to producing materials and documents, notices, agendas, and minutes. You provide service and support to the board and its committees, as well as managerial support in matters concerning case management and legal issues. A smaller part of the assignment is to serve as secretary at the meetings.

You will also support the management and director of the administration, as well as other key personnel, in drafting and assessing service statements, as well as developing and ensuring routines related to the board and committee processes. The position includes various types of side assignments related to training, investigative work, and coordination responsibilities for cross-administrative issues.

As a board secretary, you will be part of the secretariat unit responsible for the administration's information and case management process. The employees in the unit work together and have expertise in the areas of case management, board and committee administration, and law.

The secretariat unit is one of seven units in the department of staff and communication, which also handles the administration's communication and security issues, as well as payroll administration and fee processing. Your immediate supervisor is the department head who is directly responsible for the secretariat unit. The workplace is located at Opaltorget in a newly built office, where we work activity-based.

About You

You should have a university degree in political science or law, or have another education that the employer deems equivalent. You should have documented knowledge of relevant legislation, such as municipal and administrative law, public access, and confidentiality.

It is advantageous if you have worked in a politically governed organization and if you have previous experience as a committee or board secretary.

We are looking for someone who takes responsibility for their own and the common tasks with the best interests of the organization in focus. You take your tasks seriously, are keen to complete what you have started, and ensure that the work is done correctly. You have the interest, willingness, and ability to help others, and you strive to present solutions. You are structured, set clear goals, and plan activities and projects in good time. You use your time effectively and work systematically, organized, and methodically. You ensure that the work is completed and follow up on the results.
