Vacant job

Do you want to work in a stable organization with a strong team spirit, good development opportunities, and the ability to influence your work? Then the adult psychiatry clinic in Oskarshamn might be the right place for you.

Here, you will become part of the Psychiatry Administration in Region Kalmar – a separate administration with short decision-making paths, close management, and good collaboration between units.

About the Role

At our general adult psychiatric specialist clinic, you will meet a broad and diverse patient group across the entire psychiatric spectrum. The work is both varied and clinically stimulating.

We are approximately 40 employees working in cross-professional teams where the psychologist's competence is central.

Here you will get:

• An important role in assessment, investigation, and treatment.
• The opportunity to work both independently and in close collaboration with colleagues.
• A varied job with good opportunities for specialization.

Work Environment and Methods

We have stable staffing and well-functioning teams, which creates continuity for both patients and employees. Currently, we do not use temporary agency staff or rely on staffing agencies, which contributes to security and long-term stability.

We value an open and non-hierarchical culture where it is natural to discuss clinical issues and use each other as sounding boards. Regular opportunities are provided for joint discussions regarding patient cases and working methods.

Thanks to a well-functioning administrative support system, you can largely focus on the clinical work.

You also have good opportunities to influence how your work is organized, including the structure of treatment work and the planning of your schedule.

What We Offer

• Flexible working hours.
• Health and wellness allowance.
• Opportunity for pension savings through salary exchange.
• Extra vacation days at ages 40 and 50.
• Continuous competence development and further training.
• A work climate characterized by collaboration, participation, and development.

About You

We are looking for you who are a licensed psychologist with at least two years of experience. Experience within psychiatry is meritorious.

To thrive here, you are a psychologist who:

• Creates good relationships and builds strong therapeutic alliances.
• Appreciates and contributes to teamwork.
• Is both collaborative and independent.
• Is receptive, engaged, and professional in your interactions.

Basic psychotherapy training and experience with neuropsychiatric investigations are meritorious.

The position requires very good knowledge of Swedish and a valid driver's license (Category B), as travel and home visits may occur.

Your Future Workplace

Here, psychiatrists, psychologists, nurses, social workers, occupational therapists, care assistants, psychotherapists, and medical secretaries work in close collaboration.

The clinic is located in newly built, purpose-built premises opposite Oskarshamn Hospital, which facilitates collaboration with somatic care. Parts of child and adolescent psychiatry are also located in the same building, creating good continuity in the care chain.

Why Choose Us?

Here, security and stability are combined with professional development, influence, and varied clinical work – in an organization where teamwork and quality are at the center.

We are part of the Psychiatry Administration in Region Kalmar. Within the administration, a total of 600 employees work with specialist psychiatric care for adults, children and adolescents, forensic psychiatry, and rehabilitation care. We work based on the vision: A leading specialist psychiatry.
