Welcome to Sundsvall Municipality!

Sundsvall Municipality is one of Northern Sweden's largest employers with around 8,000 employees and over 300 professions. Together, we fulfill one of the most important missions in society – to create benefits and value for residents, businesses, and future generations. Regardless of the activity, we work towards the same goal: to be a great place to live, work, and thrive.

We are currently in an exciting phase of development. We are a pioneer in digital development and artificial intelligence, leading the effort to create smart solutions for the future of the public sector.

Sundsvall plays a central role in the green transition in Northern Sweden. We are convinced that the right places for this transition are here. As a municipality, we are preparing to grow by preparing land, creating new educational opportunities, marketing the municipality, and welcoming new residents from around the world.

Within the Department of Children and Education, our approximately 3,000 employees meet around 14,000 children and students in more than 100 preschools and schools throughout the municipality every day. Every child and student in Sundsvall's preschools and schools should be able to develop, learn, and achieve their goals based on their own conditions. Every student should leave school with the will, knowledge, and good conditions to meet adult life and the future.

Your New Workplace

The Department of Children and Education is seeking a Primary School Teacher for grades 1-3 at Sundsvall Montessori School.

Sundsvall Montessori School is located in the picturesque Sidsjö area, close to both the lake and beautiful forest environments. The school is a F-9 school with just over 230 students. Adjacent to the school, there is also an after-school program and a preschool with 5 departments. To stimulate students' development and learning, we work according to Montessori pedagogy. The pedagogy follows the child throughout their school years, from the toddler department in preschool to grade 9. We put the student at the center and strive to give each student the best possible conditions to develop their full potential. The work takes place in both mixed-age and age-homogeneous groups. Curiosity and interest are the foundation for lifelong learning. We create conditions for students to grow, feel a desire to learn, and understand that they "have the leading role in their own life." Students are given early opportunities to practice collaboration and take personal responsibility – skills that are valuable for further studies and in working life. We place education in a broader context.
