The position is located in a cross-professional group where social secretaries work closely with therapists, SIG coordinators, and other key actors involved with the youth and their families.

The work is characterized by close collaboration from the very beginning of the investigation process.

At the same time, you work closely with therapists and SIG coordinators in the practical change work regarding the young person. The role involves active collaboration with, among others, schools, police, guardians, and other external actors.

Here, you will have the opportunity to work in an engaged team with high competence, where development, collaboration, and early preventive work are in focus.

We are looking for you who:

• Have a degree in social work or equivalent education that the employer deems relevant for the assignment
• Have experience in authority enforcement within child and youth services
• Have experience and competence in systemic approaches
• Have experience in therapeutic work within the target group
• Are confident in your professional role and accustomed to working independently
• Have good collaboration skills and thrive in teamwork

It is an advantage if you have experience with:

• Work with young people in risk zones for norm-breaking behavior
• SIG/SSPF work or other collaboration structures
• Crime prevention work
• Signs of Safety or other structured working methods
