JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

Investigation of protection for children and youth.

Social Worker

Welcome to a cutting-edge Social Administration and a team that implements the new Social Services Act in daily work with investigating children and youth. In our administration, the atmosphere is high, and the work is important! We are looking for a social worker for one of our focus teams. We seek you who want to work on investigating violence against children in our violence team. Since March 2024, we have been working with level determination of investigations and focus teams.

We have a first line that works closely with reception and outpatient care to offer support where there is high receptiveness; here we conduct short investigations or work with interventions without needs assessment. We investigate less and offer advice and support early. We have a second line where concerns are higher and recurring. The other teams are FBI, in-depth needs assessment, and Violence Investigation Team.

The Violence Investigation Team consists of caseworkers from both child and adult case management along with therapists because we want to work systemically and accessibly to create trusting relationships with our children and families. Here you will be part of the team and have colleagues and team leaders to support you in your daily assessments. The collaboration provides knowledge to our citizens, and you always have a colleague to collaborate with. This ensures respect and a good working environment. The caseworkers are trained in Freda, Patriark, Heva, and I Risk. Since we want to work flexibly, we want to hire you who are a social worker, ready to work with whatever is needed to create value. You will handle child cases but may also need to provide interventions and support in treatment when that need arises.

We work with mentors in the organization as support for you who are new with us, and we have a comprehensive introduction program with access to internal training. The department consists of 25 employees, of which three are team leaders, one family therapist, one administrative social worker, and investigative and follow-up social workers. Feel free to follow us on social media and take part in our development work, including via LinkedIn!
