Bufff Sweden

Do you want to make a real difference for children and young people with an incarcerated parent? Bufff Sweden is now looking for an engaged and driven operations developer who wants to take overall responsibility for our outreach work within the Prison and Probation Service.

This is a role for you who thrives with great responsibility, enjoys building relationships, and is not afraid to roll up your sleeves when needed.

About Bufff Sweden

Bufff is a national children's rights organization that supports children and young people with an incarcerated family member. We work with support services, education, knowledge dissemination, and advocacy, with the child's best interests in focus. We are currently undergoing a transformation journey to develop and quality assure our operations and prepare to grow rapidly. The Prison and Probation Service will triple its prison capacity, which means our target group will grow just as much. We have never been more needed than now.

About the role

As an operations developer, you will be responsible for Bufff's national outreach work within the Prison and Probation Service. You will have overall responsibility for the state grant – from application and planning to implementation, follow-up, and reporting.

You will develop, quality assure, and evaluate the work and act as Bufff's national contact towards prison and probation units. You will also support our local associations in the outreach work and contribute to creating structure, consensus, and long-term sustainability throughout the organization.

The role is both strategic and operational; you drive development forward while managing administration and follow-up.

We are looking for someone who

• Has experience working with state grants, including applications and reporting

• Is used to working independently with great personal responsibility
• Has good administrative and organizational skills
• Is comfortable in contact with authorities and various professional actors
• Has experience in method development, evaluation, or quality work.

Personal qualities

We are looking for a flexible and solution-oriented person who sees what needs to be done and takes action. You are not afraid to pitch in when needed and thrive in a role where you can combine structure with development work.

You are relationship-building, unpretentious, and contribute to a positive work environment – it is important to us that we both do important work and have fun together.

We offer

• A meaningful role in an organization that makes a real difference
• The opportunity to influence and develop national work
• Engaged colleagues and a warm, values-driven workplace
• Flexibility and great personal responsibility
