Welcome to a workplace where you get to grow – together with engaged colleagues

With us, you have the opportunity to make a real difference for elderly people in Tjörn Municipality. We are a close-knit team where responsibility, authority, and competence are valued – and where you, as an employee, help shape both your daily life and the future of the operations. Our drive is to create the best possible care for the individual.

"This workplace is not like any other I have been at. Here, the team leads, we take responsibility, and we use our competence fully. Our manager leads together with us – not from above. This creates security, joy in work, and pride. Our goal is clear: to make others and ourselves better through joint development and to offer sustainable care that those we serve can rely on."

We now welcome two new employees to our team to strengthen our work and together create the best conditions for secure and high-quality elderly care on Tjörn.

About Us

The Authority and Development Unit consists of a team of eleven engaged employees who together are responsible for case processing according to the Social Services Act (SoL) and the Support and Service Act for Persons with Certain Functional Impairments (LSS), as well as housing coordination, system administration, and operational development.

We work with horizontal management, which means that everyone in the team actively contributes with their competence and perspectives. Our work environment is characterized by collaboration, responsibility, and trust – which means that both the team and the individual develop. You have good opportunities for competence development through supervision, training, legal databases, and environmental scanning.
