Vacant job

Description

We are looking for someone who is curious about working with us in an exciting district with an important target group - our children and youth with disabilities.

You are curious, driven, and good at moving processes forward. You enjoy working both individually and collaboratively.

We are Funktionsstöd Myndighet Nordost Unga and consist of 11 social workers, two senior social workers, and a unit manager. We are a group that enjoys working together and values our good work environment, supporting each other in our tasks. With us, you will have a stimulating and responsible job with great opportunities to influence, as well as access to method and process guidance. We are located at Angereds Torg, which is a hub in the area, both in terms of local transport and accessibility, as well as the availability of shops and restaurants.

Job Responsibilities

In your role as a social worker, you will investigate individuals' rights to services according to SoL and LSS. You will meet children and youth with mental/neuropsychiatric/physical and intellectual disabilities, their families, networks, and guardians/managers. Sometimes you will hold conversations together with an interpreter. We collaborate with service providers such as housing, other social services, authorities, and schools. Competence development and environmental monitoring are important parts of the work.

The job involves managing priorities, demands, and conflicting interests, making ethical considerations and decisions. An important part is also determining when other expertise is needed beyond your own. We work with a norm-critical approach.

It is preferable if you have experience with the target group and relevant legislation.

Qualifications

You are welcome to apply for the position if you have a degree in social work or another degree that the employer assesses as equivalent. However, it is required that you have studied social law for at least 7.5 higher education credits.

It is meritorious if you have experience in authority exercise with investigations, assessments, and implementation of decisions, as well as being familiar with processing according to the Social Services Act (SoL) and the Act on Support and Service for Certain Disabled Persons (LSS). You are also welcome to have experience in the disability field.

Since the position involves administrative work and issuing, for example, service statements, you need to have a good ability to express yourself in Swedish, both orally and in writing.

If you have experience with documentation in the operational systems IBIC, Treserva, and SAMSA, this is seen as a positive.

You take responsibility and show respect and consideration for others in your work. Your starting point is the equal value of all, and you have the best interests of the organization/users in focus. Under stress, you can remain calm, work efficiently, and balance the existing demands.

You are systematic, organized, and methodical.

Conditions

With us, we have a solid introduction for new employees both within our unit, broadly across Funktionsstöd Nordost, and within our own administration. We also offer the possibility of partial remote work, wellness benefits, process handling, and much more.

With us, you will have a stimulating and responsible job with great opportunities to influence, as well as close access to management in the form of senior social workers and managers. You will also receive external process guidance. We value a good introduction and competence development.

An important part of your introduction with us is participation in the Competence Ladder. This is a long-term investment that spans three semesters, where each semester has its own theme. You will attend together with colleagues from other units within the administration and the city.

All units in Nordost conduct several development projects, and parts of us are HBTQI-certified.

Warm welcome with your application!
