About Samhall

Samhall exists to create a more inclusive labor market where everyone is seen as an asset. Our mission is to create meaningful jobs for people with disabilities. Each year, approximately 2,000 people are referred to us by the Swedish Public Employment Service, and what we do is offer them a stable platform to stand on and the opportunity to train their skills and develop their competence. Our most important goal is that 1,500 people leave us each year for work outside of Samhall.

No matter where you work in our organization, our mission and goals are ever-present. The conviction that all people have competence is a compass and a driving force for all of us. We believe that you, reading this, feel as strongly about this as we do.

We are 24,000 employees, including approximately 1,500 managers and specialists, with operations across the country. Together, we work for a more inclusive labor market that benefits individuals, organizations, and society as a whole.

Welcome to Samhall!

About the position

The role of Group Manager Rehab with a focus on prehab is an important and established management position within Samhall. It is a first-line management role where you have personnel responsibility for employees in complex rehabilitation and prehabilitation cases. Your task is to create the conditions for our employees to develop their work capacity and receive the right support to work sustainably over time.

An important part of the role is to work preventively through prehabilitation, where the focus is on early identification of needs, strengthening work capacity, and reducing the risk of sick leave. You work close to the operations and actively contribute to developing Samhall's work within sick leave and rehabilitation processes.

The path for our employees can sometimes be long and complex, but the goal is for them to develop professional knowledge and work capacity that prepares them for work outside of Samhall.

In the role, you create and maintain networks and good relationships both internally and externally. You collaborate daily with area managers, HR, and other support functions, and have ongoing contact with external actors such as the Swedish Social Insurance Agency and the Swedish Public Employment Service. You also become part of an experienced network of colleagues and specialists where you collaborate on workplace adjustments, assistive devices, and rehabilitation efforts.

We offer you

As Group Manager Rehab with a focus on prehab, you begin your learning journey in our own Samhall School and have the opportunity to participate in one of Sweden's most extensive leadership programs. Here, you develop as a leader regardless of previous experience and simultaneously build specialist knowledge about leading and developing people with disabilities.

You get the opportunity to build networks with colleagues around the country, exchange experiences, and contribute to an important societal mission where you make a real difference for people every day.

What you contribute

For you, leadership is an active choice and something you have experience with from before. You build trusting relationships and create a good collaboration climate through clear, secure, and present leadership.

You communicate clearly and have the ability to adapt your communication style based on the needs and conditions of different individuals. You are motivated by developing people and creating conditions for sustainable progress.

We also believe that you are confident in handling complex individual cases and are accustomed to working systematically with documentation, follow-up, and collaboration with various actors. Since the role involves many contact surfaces, we see that you have good collaboration skills and a solution-oriented approach to work.

Given the role's focus on rehabilitation and prehabilitation, we will place great emphasis on previous experience in the field. We are particularly interested in hearing about complex rehabilitation cases you have worked with and how you have worked preventively to strengthen work capacity and reduce sickness absence.

Having a background as an occupational therapist or similar experience is meritorious.

To succeed and thrive in the role, we believe you have:

• Good knowledge of the Swedish Social Insurance Agency's regulations
• Leadership experience with personnel responsibility
• Experience in operational work with personnel development
• Documented experience of rehabilitation, workplace adjustments, and preventive work
• Experience of collaboration with the Swedish Social Insurance Agency and the Swedish Public Employment Service
• Good administrative skills and habit of documentation and follow-up
• Valid driver's license (Category B)
