Vacant job

Åsele is a place perfectly located between the coast and the mountains in Southern Lapland. At Åsele Municipality, we take care of the obvious needs in our residents' daily lives, such as delivering water and heat, clearing roads, taking good care of our elderly, and providing education for our schoolchildren. We make a difference for everyone who lives, visits, and works in Åsele.

The area of Åsele Municipality encompasses a scenic land area of 4235 km², which has over fifty nature reserves and a national park. The area serves as winter grazing land for two Sami villages. What attracts visitors to Åsele, besides nature and outdoor activities, is the historic Åsele Market, one of Sweden's largest summer markets.

Åsele Municipality (Sjeltien tjïelte in South Sámi) is a Sámi administrative area, and knowledge of Sámi is an asset in certain professional fields.

Would you like to help develop Åsele - the inland community of the future?
