Vacant job

AKG Sweden is looking for a Supervisor in the Vocational Introduction for People with Visual Impairments (YIS) project

AKG Sweden AB is a dynamic company that has grown rapidly, from approximately 15 employees in 2023 to over 170 dedicated colleagues today. As part of Angus Knight Group, a global player in education, employment, and social services, we are dedicated to making a positive difference for individuals and communities. We work to broaden participants' perspectives on the labor market and career opportunities, focusing on their needs and development.

The Vocational Introduction for People with Visual Impairments (YIS) consists of various preparatory measures, divided into four steps over approximately 1–1.5 years. During this time, our participants will engage in individually tailored activities designed to help them achieve their goal of securing employment or participating in education leading to work.

Your Profile
We are looking for someone who is self-motivated, driven, and engaged with other people. The target group is very broad, which places high demands on you and your colleagues to adapt content and structure of our activities at an individual level. Much of your work will focus on strengthening our participants' self-esteem, confidence, and motivation. Therefore, we consider it essential that you have experience interacting with people with visual impairments and are driven by engaging and helping others grow – without taking over their responsibilities. This is an important balance for us at AKG!

You are fundamentally positive and egalitarian, with good self-awareness regarding the conditions you need to thrive and succeed in your work. You enjoy testing different paths and methods, and you thrive both working independently and as part of a team.

The Role of Supervisor
In addition to educating, supporting, coaching, and motivating our participants, you always keep the goal in sight – with a clear mandate to find a suitable path for the individual that leads to work or studies. This places high demands on an individualized approach. The role also involves some administration and documentation in our own and the client's systems.

We at AKG Sweden work in a team-based manner. In the role of Supervisor, you are responsible, together with the Vision Pedagogue, local team, and Quality Manager, to ensure that through our internal processes we deliver a service we are proud of. You are a key person in the ongoing development work.

Education and Experience

• At least 1 year of experience planning and coordinating activating and motivating measures for people with disabilities.
• At least 1 year of experience in securing trial work and internship placements.

Your workday will be flexible, challenging, and highly value-creating!

In the employment relationship at AKG Sweden, there is an expectation that everyone, i.e., YOU, take responsibility for increasing your self-awareness regarding the conditions you need to thrive and succeed in your work – and dare to communicate these to your colleagues. Together, we can achieve most things!

We value the qualities that diversity and gender balance bring to the business and therefore welcome applicants with different backgrounds and life experiences.
