Vacant job

Magelungen Utveckling is an employee-owned limited company offering specialized treatment and change work for children, young people, young adults, and their families. Magelungen provides treatment as well as resource schools at the primary and upper secondary levels. Our goal is to create an environment in our operations that is manageable, meaningful, and understandable. Research and evaluation are integrated parts of all our activities.

Do you want to help create the resource school of the future – where students get to grow, succeed, and feel hope?

About Us

We offer school and treatment, where education is integrated with skills training and therapy. Our operations are characterized by a hierarchy-free collaboration between different professions. In addition to educators, we have behavioral scientists, social workers, and family therapists who, together with school staff, support students in their development. The school is aimed at students in grades 7–9 who have extensive needs for special support. The students we meet often have social, psychosocial, or neuropsychiatric challenges and frequently have a long history of school absence. To help these young people achieve a functional school routine, we work with small-scale operations, high staff density, strengthened student social support, and individually designed setups based on each student's conditions and needs. We have a systemic and salutogenic perspective, focusing on working with the whole person and building on what works. Our goal is to offer an environment where all students have a chance to succeed based on their own conditions.

About the Position

As a teacher at Magelungen, you become a key person in a holistic approach that combines teaching, relationships, and change work. You teach in a small group where the students' strengths are the starting point for planning and learning. You have overall responsibility for the teaching and plan, implement, and follow up at both individual and group levels, with mentoring, contact with guardians, and collaboration with, for example, social services and healthcare as part of the role.

The assignment is challenging and involves a changing student environment with many simultaneous demands and close relationship work, which places high demands on structure, flexibility, and endurance. At the same time, it offers great opportunities to make a real difference.

In your daily work, you focus on the students' resources and competencies and work together with them towards their own goals. You collaborate closely with school leadership, colleagues, student health services, and treatment coordinators in an interdisciplinary team, contribute to development work, and create teaching that combines knowledge, structure, and relationships in an environment characterized by trust, warmth, and endurance.

Qualifications

We are looking for you who are a certified teacher with eligibility for grades 4–9 and who have experience with, or a strong interest in, students with extensive support needs. You see the relationship as your primary pedagogical tool, combine structure with creativity, and maintain calm even when daily life tests you. You are motivated by working in an idealistic and employee-owned operation where research and reflection are a natural part. Experience in special educational work is an advantage.

We place great emphasis on personal suitability. You are a secure and stable teacher who actively uses relationships in your work and who combines trust, structure, and clear leadership with flexibility and creativity. The work requires teamwork, endurance, and a solution-focused approach. You will become an important part of an engaged team where we together create structure, security, and development for students in need of special support. The school is exclusively for students with extensive needs for special support, so we would appreciate it if you have experience working with this student category.

Our Offer

Our operation is idealistic and employee-owned, a conscious choice that reflects our commitment and long-term perspective. We offer a meaningful workplace where every day feels important, close leadership, and a warm collegium that believes in collaboration and development, continuous supervision and competence development within Magelungen's professional program, as well as the opportunity to influence how we build the resource school of the future.
