The Swedish National Board of Institutional Care (SiS) is an authority responsible for individually adapted compulsory care for young people with complex psychosocial problems and for adults with substance abuse issues. SiS also implements secure care for youth. We do this at youth homes and homes for adults with substance abuse across the country. At SiS, your work life becomes an exciting challenge.

Job Description

We are in an expansive development phase that involves both organizational development and a growing mandate. In this role, you will work in a changing environment where methods, content, and priorities may shift according to the needs of the organization.

Here, you will have a meaningful job where you directly contribute to creating safer and more professional care environments. You will have the opportunity to alternate theoretical training with practical and physical exercises, and you will be part of a workplace where development, collaboration, and social benefit are in focus. The role also includes travel within the country, providing variety and the opportunity to get close to the operations.
