Vacant job

Stockholm – our capital city with millions of dreams, expectations, and ambitions. We work for everyone who lives here today and in the future. Now we are looking for you who want to think big, new, and different with us – for the people of Stockholm.

The Elderly Care Administration is responsible for municipal-wide issues concerning elderly care, as well as coordinating, developing, and monitoring elderly care in the city in dialogue with the district boards.

We are now looking for reinforcement for our common hub that will drive and coordinate digitalization across the entire social services and elderly care sector. Together, we create efficient and user-friendly digital solutions that make a difference for both Stockholmers and operations.

Welcome to us

Elderly Care Administration – IT and Security Unit

In 2026, Sweden's largest elderly care and social services will take the next big step in our joint digitalization journey.

We have pooled our resources in a common collaboration arena (portfolio) with five collaboration areas (objects) and a common hub (portfolio office). We work across organizational boundaries to reduce administration, share expertise, and test innovative solutions that can be scaled up for the entire city.

Our five digital collaboration areas are:

• Authority execution and provider documentation

• Digital basic services and secure communication

We are located in newly renovated and activity-based premises a stone's throw from the Älvsjö commuter train and bus station, with proximity to restaurants, cafes, and services.
