Do you want to contribute to making cultural activities a natural part of everyday life for seniors in Södertälje? Then the role of temporary Culture Activity Coordinator might be interesting for you!

Work with us

Södertälje Stadsscen offers exciting, developmental, and independent work focused on making performing arts and cultural expressions accessible and spreading them. The unit includes the following operations: Performing Arts, Kultur 365, Culture in Preschool/School, and Print Service.

Kultur 365

The activity aims to carry out culture-bearing activities for and with older people and to create new perspectives on how culture, social life, and cultural thinking and practice can enrich seniors and become a natural part of daily life for more people. We want to activate all senses and create touching encounters with art, pedagogy, and technology as tools. Kultur 365 is a collaboration between the Culture and Leisure Office and the Care Office, and we work proactively towards elderly care.

Your responsibilities

With colleagues or on your own, you visit Södertälje Municipality's care and nursing homes and day activities with a prepared program. This can include singing, dancing, art, digital technology, and take place through, for example, a mixer, a performance, or conversations. As a Culture Activity Coordinator, you help create the programs in creative processes. You work to ensure that the elderly are activated physically, emotionally, and cognitively based on each individual's conditions. Experience sharing, supervision, and training of care staff regarding creative activities are part of the work, as well as administrative work such as planning and reporting. The temporary position is for approximately 1 year.

Who are you?

You should enjoy working in a team, as the work is usually done together with others. You should have a genuine curiosity about working with and for older people. You need to have high empathy and be sensitive to being part of the work with elderly care. You need to be able to take initiative and take responsibility for completing commitments.

To be considered for the job, you must meet the following requirements:

• Completed suitable upper secondary education
• At least one year of documented experience in artistic work
