Welcome to a forward-looking department with a clear focus on the elderly residents of Stockholm!

Your role

In the role of Senior Curator, you will become a central resource in the work of elderly care concerning mental health. You will support operations under your own management and contribute to strengthening preventive and health-promoting work in close collaboration with functions such as relative consultants and senior guides.

You will work both strategically and operationally with colleagues in the department's staff as well as with managers in home care, care homes, and authority exercises. The assignment is broad and varied, and you will adapt the work according to current needs and priorities in the operations.

The work involves meetings with elderly individuals and relatives in crisis or complex life situations. Therefore, it is important that you have the ability to create security, instill hope, and meet people with professionalism and respect.

As a Senior Curator, you actively contribute to quality and organizational development within the department's three main areas. One of your first assignments will be to participate in developing the moving-in process at the district's special housing, where you will also have direct contact with the elderly and their relatives during a new move-in. You will also plan, lead, and coordinate training, supervision, and reflection sessions for employees within elderly care operations.

Since the position is new in the district, you will also have the opportunity to shape the assignment and help create the structures and working methods needed moving forward. You will lead your own processes, build relationships both within and outside the department, and contribute to creating coherence and context in the continued development of elderly care.

Your competence and experience

We are looking for someone who has:

• a degree in social work
• several years of experience in elderly care, addiction treatment, or a related field
• training and experience in motivational interviewing (MI) or equivalent method
• very good communication skills in Swedish, both orally and in writing
• experience working independently, driving your own processes, and creating structure

It is an advantage if you have:

• completed supervisor training
• experience in quality and development work within elderly care

We place great emphasis on the following personal competencies:

In the role of Senior Curator, you meet people in a vulnerable situation, which is why you need to be calm and stable as a person. Since the role is independent, you need to be responsible, self-driven, and structured, as well as good at planning and driving your work forward. As you have many points of contact, you need to be relationship-building, have good collaboration skills, good communication skills, and a pedagogical flair. You are solution-oriented and flexible in your approach and can reprioritize when necessary. Great emphasis will be placed on personal suitability.
