About Us

Hudiksvall Municipality is looking for a trainee as a committee secretary.

You will be part of our Committee Secretary and Investigator Unit, which currently consists of six committee secretaries and one investigator. The unit is part of the administrative operations along with other central support functions and is part of the municipal executive administration.

A municipality is responsible for many important functions in our society. In the municipal executive administration, we ensure that all municipal functions are coordinated, developed, and followed up based on overarching political decisions. We are also involved in developing new residential areas, districts, and our countryside.

Job Responsibilities

In your role, you will primarily:

• act as secretary in the municipality's committees and boards, during collaborative negotiations and safety committees at the administrative level, in preparations, and similar. This includes case preparation, minute writing, follow-up, and dispatching decisions.
• handle everything from legal questions to formalities before, during, and after meetings.
• provide professional support to elected officials and civil servants.
• perform other practical tasks related to the committees, such as organizing study visits and scheduling presenters or visitors for meetings.
• be the contact person for elected officials.
• handle any administrative tasks within the administrative operations.

If necessary, you may need to support the processes of other committee secretaries within other committees. Other tasks may also occur, such as writing service letters.

Qualifications

You have an academic degree with a social science orientation or another area that the employer assesses to be relevant for the assignment. At the time of application, your academic degree should be no more than three years old, and you should be able to present your diploma. The work requires that you can express yourself well in speech and writing in Swedish.

For us, the most important thing is that you have a genuine interest in the described tasks, an engagement in social issues, and a desire to work with us to create the welfare of the future.

Personal Qualities

To thrive in the role of committee secretary, you need to be able to work independently based on given conditions and timeframes. You have a sense of accuracy and detail, and you can create order and structure.

You will face many new situations and collaborate with many different people – it is both enriching and challenging! This requires you to have good collaboration skills, the ability to solve problems under time pressure, and to be analytical.

We place great emphasis on personal qualities.

Warm welcome to your application!
