Do you want to contribute to empowering people in vulnerable situations?

With us, you will have a meaningful summer job where you make a real difference in the daily lives of Nacka residents.

About the unit:

The Employment and Establishment Unit operates under the Board of Employment and Welfare and is responsible for refugee reception. The unit also handles financial assistance and labor market initiatives. To best meet the Nacka residents who need temporary support through financial assistance, we believe that a clear working method is required, focusing on finding pathways to self-sufficiency as quickly and efficiently as possible. The goal is to prevent and reduce unemployment, where every person in work is a gain.

The unit is driven by development; we continuously update our work processes for both financial assistance, establishment, and integration to meet citizens' needs. The unit consists of 38 responsible managers who lead the operations based on the motto “keep your head cool and your heart warm.”

Your mission:

We are looking for someone who wants to work as a summer substitute social worker within the financial assistance department. The role involves continuously investigating, following up, and making decisions on applications for financial assistance. You will also provide statements to the administrative court in appeal cases.

As a social worker within the financial assistance department, you will be responsible for following up on labor market initiatives in collaboration with social workers for self-sufficiency.

Is this you?

We are looking for someone who has or is studying in fields such as behavioral science, law, economics, social sciences, political science, or social work.

As a person, you are:

• Detail-oriented and solution-focused.
• Structured in your work approach and enjoy making independent assessments while collaborating in a team.
• Proactive and have a positive attitude, even when things are busy.
• Value diversity in all forms and have the ability to see opportunities and convey hope to people in crisis and/or with complex life situations.
• Have good communication skills in both spoken and written form.

Experience in public authority work and administrative tasks or work with financial assistance is an advantage.

We offer:

The workplace is located in Nacka City Hall, just a stone's throw from Nacka Forum. Traveling here by bus takes 15 minutes from Slussen and 20 minutes from Gustavsberg. Nacka Municipality values diversity and has about 4,400 employees working to provide over 100,000 Nacka residents with good service, great choice, and strong influence. Here, you also have the freedom to work from home, access to a gym in Nacka City Hall, wellness hours, and wellness compensation.
