About the workplace

At Tellusgatan's short-term stay, you will meet individuals with varying needs for support in their daily lives. The target group for the operation is children with autism, autism-like conditions, and intellectual disabilities.

What we offer

We offer you a varied, responsible, and stimulating job with opportunities for personal development. The workplace is smoke-free and health-conscious. As an employee, you will receive a wellness allowance of 3000 SEK per year.

Job responsibilities

Your role as a support educator is to create structure and participation in the children's daily lives. You do this by contributing with in-depth competence to strengthen a pedagogical approach and adherence to methods in the workgroup. You work both pedagogically and practically, contributing to creating a safe and stimulating environment where each child can grow on their own terms.

You are expected to contribute to the pedagogical improvement work, collegial learning, and collaborate with colleagues, management, relatives, and external actors such as schools and habilitation.

Furthermore, your job responsibilities include planning, implementing, and following up on pedagogical interventions together with your colleagues and ensuring the children's care needs. The work also includes documenting, observing, and evaluating the children's development and needs.

All work is based on the intentions of the LSS legislation and focuses on the children's rights perspective.

Qualifications

We are looking for someone who, in addition to basic education, has a post-secondary education, qualified vocational training, university college, or university education with a specialization in the disability field equivalent to 200 YH points or 60 university credits.

To proceed in the process, you also need to have knowledge/experience of:

  • pedagogical development and improvement work within the framework of LSS
  • working with children and young people with autism, in e.g., LSS, schools, or leisure activities
  • challenging behavior and clarification working methods

It is also important for the role that you have good computer skills, good documentation habits, and a B driver's license.

Your personal qualities are important to us

No day is the same, and therefore it is important that you as a person are structured and reflective while contributing to a good working environment. You need to be secure in yourself and comfortable working independently and guiding others.
