Vacant job

Do you want to help prepare tomorrow's craftsmen for a life as entrepreneurs?

We are looking for you who are a trained educator and who want to share your knowledge within economics, law, and marketing.

About Us

At the Handicraft Academy, tradition meets the future. We offer education in a wide range of craft professions, from cabinetmakers and blacksmiths to tile stove makers, tailors, and ceramicists.

Our students learn their trade through apprenticeships while simultaneously gaining the theoretical knowledge needed to succeed as self-employed entrepreneurs.

About the Role

We are now seeking an engaged teacher with pedagogical training who wants to inspire the next generation of craftsmen to start and run their own businesses.

During the university college program at the Handicraft Academy, our students take several different courses to prepare for a future as entrepreneurs.

The courses include, among other things:

• Basic law for small business owners
• Marketing and business planning
• Bookkeeping and accounting in small businesses

The position is 80–100%, where teaching, along with associated planning and administration, accounts for approximately 40%.

The remaining time can be adapted to your preferences, such as pedagogical development or communication. You will also spend part of your working hours visiting our students in their workshops to understand and get to know the target group.

This position is ideal for you who have worked as a high school teacher for a few years and now want to work with adults taking the next step into entrepreneurship.

We are looking for someone who

• Has a subject teacher degree with a focus on economic subjects or equivalent,
• Has at least three years of experience teaching economics/entrepreneurship at the upper secondary level or higher,
• Thrives on inspiring adult students,
• Can plan and conduct teaching both in classrooms and digitally,
• Is structured, engaged, and clear in communication,
• Has very strong administrative skills,
• Can adapt communication and language to different target groups.

Merits

• Experience in entrepreneurship,
• Understanding of our university college's target group, i.e., aspiring craftsmen who need practical and accessible tools to start and run small businesses.

We offer

• A pleasant workplace in the heart of Stockholm.
• The opportunity to shape course content together with engaged colleagues.
• A flexible setup with good opportunities to plan your own working day.
• An important mission: to equip tomorrow's craftsmen with business competence.
