The Swedish Defence Recruitment Agency is establishing itself in Umeå!

Do you want to be part of it from the beginning?

The testing administrator is the first person that recruits and candidates meet with us and therefore plays an important role in the overall experience of our operations.

We are now looking for three testing administrators who want to help build our operations in Umeå. Here, we work together to accomplish our tasks and take responsibility for both our own work and for each other. With quality in focus, we create a work environment where everyone can grow, contribute, and develop.

In Umeå, we will be located in centrally located and newly renovated premises next to the Ume River.

At the testing unit, senior physicians, psychologists, nurses, administrators, and caseworkers work together. We strive towards common goals and value close collaboration. There is a friendly atmosphere and strong loyalty here. We support each other and create conditions for both quality and job satisfaction.

Your Responsibilities

The role of the testing administrator is both varied and dynamic. Primarily, the testing administrators work at the reception and in our testing room. The team will consist of three people who closely collaborate on tasks to ensure the day runs as smoothly as possible.

At the reception, the testing administrators welcome candidates and check them in before directing them to the appropriate locations. Once the operation is fully established and the office is staffed according to plan, approximately 100 recruits and candidates will pass through the reception each day.

A large part of the day will also involve working in the testing room where you will instruct and provide technical support to candidates before the enrollment test and other digital tests.

You and your colleagues will also work closely together to solve other tasks at the office, such as managing food orders, rescheduling travel, purchasing, and more.

Your Qualifications

We are looking for someone who has:

  • Relevant high school education for the job
  • Experience in reception or service work in a team
  • Experience with administrative tasks
  • Good computer skills and experience with the Office suite and various IT systems

It is an advantage if you have experience working with workflows, meaning overseeing a process from start to finish through various stages.

Your Personal Qualities

We are looking for someone who has the ability to be flexible when situations require it and is calm and stable in stressful situations. You can work effectively when needed and contribute energy and engagement to the work. You can collaborate with others and are attentive and communicate clearly. Service is a significant part of the job, so it is important for us that you have a positive attitude and a service-oriented approach where you are accommodating and willing to find solutions.

About the Employment

We offer you a permanent full-time position that begins with a probationary period.

Due to the nature of the operations, you cannot work from home, but we hope that this can instead contribute to a clearer division between work and leisure. You have the opportunity to exercise during work hours and are offered favorable wellness benefits. We also offer parental leave supplements and up to 35 vacation days depending on age. Read more about the benefits and conditions we have on our website: https://www.pliktverket.se/jobba-hos-oss (https://www.pliktverket.se/jobba-hos-oss)

The employment is security classified, and we therefore conduct a security screening according to the provisions of the Security Protection Act.

We welcome applicants with diverse backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives to reflect the society we operate in. We look forward to receiving your application!

To apply to us, you do not need to write a personal letter. Instead, we have chosen to focus on selection questions and your CV for a non-discriminatory recruitment process.

About Us

At the Swedish Defence Recruitment Agency, we work to make Sweden safer. Our main task is to recruit, enroll in basic training, and register personnel in the war organization. We also conduct tests and assessments for other authorities, such as the Police and the Swedish Defence University. In short: we ensure that the right people end up in the right place in total defense.
