Educational Supervisor at the Swedish Prison and Probation Service

The Swedish Prison and Probation Service is growing – we are building new facilities, renovating, and expanding, and we are now looking for more employees. Our most important goal is to reduce recidivism – to break the vicious cycle. If we succeed, society will be safer and more secure for everyone. We are the authority responsible for prisons, probation, remand centers, and client transport.

JOB DESCRIPTION

Clients in need of education can apply and be referred to Adult Education. The teaching is individualized and takes place at the Lindåsa learning center. You will support students and teachers, both practically and pedagogically, in the role of educational supervisor. The teaching teacher may be located locally or remotely at another facility. This means that you will have continuous contact with and collaborate with teachers and other colleagues across the country.

Children and young people in remand, who are enrolled in a primary or secondary school in the community, receive help in establishing contact with the relevant school to continue their studies - you are the link between the student and the school.

In your role as an educational supervisor, you are a skilled educator with the will and ability to motivate, inspire, and lead students to achieve their goals. You are clear and engaged in your work and have a good ability to create structure and systematic approaches.

It is important for us that you share the Swedish Prison and Probation Service's fundamental values of a humane view of humanity, respect for the individual, and belief in the human will and ability to develop. You are also aware of and understand how background, culture, and group affiliation affect yourself and others. Furthermore, you are expected to contribute to ensuring that everyone is treated equally through your approach. We place great emphasis on personal suitability.

We are looking for someone who has:

• A high school diploma
• Experience working in educational activities in secondary school and/or adult education
