Vacant job

Uppsalahem is Uppsala's leading housing company with approximately 300 dedicated employees managing our portfolio of around 18,000 apartments. Here, you will work with something that is most significant for people, their homes.

The meeting places Gottsunda and Bäcklösa are run by Uppsalahem, and in the summer of 2026, we will open for the eighth consecutive year for summer activities for children and youth. With these meeting places, we aim to contribute to creating safety, community, and meaningful encounters through fun and open activities throughout the summer break. We are now looking for more hosts who want to help make the summer in Gottsunda and Bäcklösa extra fun!

Working as a host at the meeting places is an active, fast-paced, and fun summer job. Together with other hosts and 1-2 coordinators, you will work to ensure that the meeting places Gottsunda and Bäcklösa are welcoming, safe, and enjoyable places for children and youth to visit. To thrive as a host, you should enjoy spending time with children aged 5-12 years and like to take your own initiative. You will have the opportunity to influence what we do at the meeting place, and if you have experience from associations, sports, or similar, it is a strength.

The work is very varied, and some examples of activities that you will lead and participate in include various sports, games, and creative activities. The meeting places also collaborate with associations that regularly come to us. No prior knowledge is required to participate, which means we adapt the activities to the participants.

We are looking for you who:

• are currently enrolled in high school

• love working with children

• are creative, playful, and engaged

• enjoy working in a team
