WE WANT SWEDEN'S HAPPIEST RESIDENTS. ARE YOU WITH US?

In Flens Municipality, we are investing in building something long-term. A society where people thrive, grow, and stay. Our new and bold vision, Flen – Sweden's happiest municipality, is more than just words. It is a direction we have chosen together and a reminder of who we are here for. In every meeting with a resident, in every decision we make, in every day we shape – we should think with our hearts. And it starts with us.

Malmaskolan in Malmköping is now looking for two dedicated teachers in Spanish and German, respectively, for positions of approximately 50% each. For those wishing to work full-time, there are good opportunities to do so, preferably through additional qualifications or by combining the position with work at another school within the municipality.

HERE ARE YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES

As a teacher of modern languages (Spanish and German) for grades 6–9, you are responsible for planning, implementing, and following up on teaching. You create varied and stimulating teaching that sparks students' interest in languages and contributes to their linguistic development. The role includes adapting teaching to students' different needs and prerequisites, as well as continuously evaluating and developing your teaching.

You work closely with colleagues in the teaching team and subject group, contributing to a safe and structured learning environment where study peace and relationships are important parts of daily life. The role also includes mentorship, where you have regular contact with guardians. You participate in the school's joint development and values-based work. Together with other school staff, you actively participate in the school's development work and are part of networks where you collaborate to strengthen equality in teaching and assessment.

REQUIREMENTS FOR THIS ROLE:

• You are a certified teacher with eligibility to teach German or Spanish.
• You have good computer skills.
• You have good ability to work systematically with planning, implementation, and follow-up of teaching.

WE VALUE THE FOLLOWING HIGHLY:

• Previous experience teaching in grades 6–9.
• Eligibility to teach subjects other than German or Spanish.

YOUR PERSONAL QUALITIES

We believe you are someone who is confident in your professional role as a modern language teacher and has a good ability to create inspiring and communicative teaching. You easily adapt teaching based on students' different ages, needs, and prerequisites, and are motivated by sparking curiosity and a desire to use the language in practice.

You thrive in a varied daily routine where you meet different student groups and create structure, safety, and clarity in teaching. Since you work in a joint principal area and encounter several different contexts, we see that you are flexible, independent, and have good collaboration skills. You are a relationship-building teacher who builds trust with students and guardians and contributes to a positive, safe, and language-developing learning environment.

WHY WORK WITH US?

In Flens Municipality, we want to give you good conditions to thrive both at and outside of work. We offer, among other things, holiday swapping, health benefits, and reimbursement for patient fees up to the high-cost protection limit – and there are more benefits than that. Many of our workplaces also have good commuting opportunities. You can read more about what it is like to work with us on the municipality's website: flen.se (http://flen.se).

Malmaskolan is located in the charming small town of Malmköping, a historic urban area located approximately 15 kilometers northeast of Flen. With its approximately 400 students and Bettna School with approximately 65 students, they together form a joint principal area where collaboration and trusting relationships form the foundation of the operations. Here, the broad network and development opportunities of the large principal area are combined with the small school's proximity and short decision-making paths.

We offer a work environment where safety and knowledge development go hand in hand, and where you as an employee have good opportunities to be involved and influence the students' entire school day.
