Safety Officer in Vellinge Municipality

We are now looking for someone who wants to work as a safety officer in Vellinge Municipality.

The operation aims to increase presence in public spaces, strengthen formal control, and work to develop crime prevention and safety-promoting efforts in the municipality together with citizens, businesses, civil society, police, and other collaboration partners. The overarching goal is to reduce crime and work for safety in the municipality.

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

As a safety officer, you will work both event-driven and strategically to increase safety, reduce crime, and prevent unwanted incidents. You will be present in strategic locations and create relationships through dialogue with those who live, visit, and operate within Vellinge Municipality. The work involves observing, documenting, and reporting deviations that may affect safety. You will also work with various focus areas related to a safe and tidy Vellinge, which is part of the crime prevention and safety-promoting efforts in the municipality.

The working method allows for the quick calling of relevant help in the form of police, security guards, rescue services, ambulances, or municipal emergency services when needed. As a safety officer, you do not have any police powers. A large part of the work involves moving on foot to the strategic locations, and you will have access to a car and bicycle to move between different strategic locations within the municipality. In addition to the above, you should be accustomed to working independently but also be able to ask for support from colleagues. We are looking for a calm and stable person who maintains composure and focus even in more stressful situations. We place great importance on your ability to collaborate and take initiative. You need to be a trustworthy adult who easily establishes contacts with children, youth, and adults.
