Together!
With courage, commitment, and flexibility, we make a difference - that’s how we think in the social administration of Järfälla. Do you think along those lines too?
The Social Administration in Järfälla municipality is responsible for elderly care and disability services, individual and family care, as well as health and social care. The Disability Authority is part of the department for elderly care and disability services.
The area of the Disability Authority includes three units: Adult LSS Assistance Unit, Children and Youth LSS Assistance Unit, and SOL Assistance Unit.
We are looking for a new colleague with an interest in the LSS area. We are located in a so-called authority house within the Social Administration and have close access to caseworkers and social workers in other areas, which facilitates collaboration in joint cases.
RESPONSIBILITIES
Your main task is to investigate, decide on, and follow up on granted services according to LSS and SOL, as well as the National Travel Service Act. The work with authority exercise is varied, involving meetings with clients and their relatives as part of the job, along with documentation and development work.
The work includes contacts and collaboration with providers and other professionals, both internally and externally. You will be responsible for your own area, but we have a holistic perspective and work towards common goals, helping each other out.
QUALIFICATIONS
You have a degree in social work or an equivalent higher education. The role of the assistance officer requires you to be structured, flexible, and self-driven. You have good collaboration skills and personal maturity. You find it easy to communicate in both speech and writing. It is advantageous if you have previously worked in the Lifecare management system.
You have knowledge and experience of working according to the Act on Support and Service for Certain Disabled Persons (LSS). We use IBIC as an investigation method, and it is advantageous if you have experience and good knowledge of it.
We offer stimulating, complex, and challenging tasks.
There is an opportunity to work remotely to some extent when the work allows. We have wellness grants and a generous benefits portal. Annual working hours allow for a more flexible distribution of working time compared to regular flex time.
Interviews are conducted on an ongoing basis, and the position may be filled before the application deadline, so do not hesitate to submit your application! We look forward to your application and hope you want to be a team player in our unit!
