Do you want a varied and meaningful job?

We are now looking for two new colleagues for the elderly unit: one social worker for a permanent position and one substitute during a parental leave.

With us, you will be part of a competent and creative team where job satisfaction, collaboration, and a strong focus on the mission shape our daily work. Welcome to a workplace where we develop together and make a difference.

Your mission:

The elderly unit is tasked with ensuring that Nacka residents aged 65 and older receive the support they need to live under safe conditions. Through flexibility and shared responsibility, we meet our clients in an elderly care sector that is facing an exciting future where we must find the best solutions based on demographic challenges, lessons learned from the pandemic, and the opportunities of welfare technology. We work towards clear goals with Nacka's seniors in focus. Our employees are our most important resource.

The elderly unit's social worker team consists of two teams with about 16 employees in each team. In one of the teams, there is also a housing coordinator responsible for placements in special housing, day activities, and short-term accommodation.

As a social worker, your responsibilities include:

• Receiving applications, investigating, and making decisions about services for Nacka residents over 65 years old, as well as following up on decisions according to the Social Services Act. We work with the individual's needs at the center (IBIC).
• Having extensive delegation to make decisions about most services.
• Providing relevant information and guidance and informing/guiding in the choice of provider according to Nacka's customer choice.
• Collaborating internally within the municipality and externally with, for example, health care and other authorities.

Is this you?

We place great importance on your personality and are looking for someone who enjoys working in teams as well as independently and likes to share their knowledge. To thrive in the role, you should have a knack for building relationships as you will have many points of contact, both internally and externally. We wish for you to be curious, creative, and enjoy development. The role requires a structured working method and good prioritization skills. You work legally secure and have excellent communication skills in both speech and writing.

We are looking for someone who has:

• A degree in social work

It is an advantage if you also have:

• Experience working in a politically governed organization.
• Experience in social work for the elderly.
• Experience with the IBIC working method.
• Experience with the Pulsen Combine operational system.
• A driving license (B).

We offer:

You will be offered a broad and independent role. Here you will have the chance to work in a quality municipality that has openness and diversity as its vision and a fundamental value of trusting people's knowledge, will, and ability. The elderly unit's work is permeated by our strategy for healthy aging and being an elderly-friendly municipality.
