At the Department of Anesthesia, Surgery and Intensive Care, we care for patients and families facing a pivotal moment. For some, we are their last hope. For others, we create an opportunity for a better life. Whether you work in the sterile processing department, in one of our mobile units, on the intensive care unit, or in the operating room, you play a crucial role in critical moments. We welcome your application to become part of our team.

Our Operations

We are looking for you who want to make a difference for children in need of anesthesia and surgical care. The work is varied, as is the pace. Children and adolescents aged 0–16 come to our Pediatric Anesthesia and Surgery Department. It is important to us that both children and accompanying relatives feel well cared for and safe. The operations are diverse and broad, offering great opportunities for professional development. Our specialties include urology, upper gastrointestinal surgery, orthopedics, hand surgery, and neonatal surgery. We also receive children from oncology, which includes surgery and treatments from diagnosis to completed treatment. We are a team that enjoys working together, with the child's best interests at the center. This is a prerequisite for safely caring for everyone from extremely premature infants with intestinal disorders to large teenagers with sports-related injuries, for example. We are humble in our task of caring for children who need care and surgery.

Region Uppsala values the qualities that equal gender distribution and diversity bring to the operations and welcomes applicants of all genders and with different backgrounds, abilities, and life experiences.

Region Uppsala assigns all permanent staff to military service positions based on the needs of the total defense. This entails no obligations for the individual employee in peacetime but is solely a planning measure.

Before making a decision on employment, a check of the suspicion and criminal records will be conducted for all job seekers who, in the sought position, may come to work within psychiatric care, habilitation, care for children and adolescents, or compulsory care for substance abusers, areas covered by optional record extracts. This thus applies to all who will work close to patients, even if the tasks at present are not intended to mainly involve work with the aforementioned patient groups.

This recruitment is conducted entirely through Region Uppsala, and we decline phone calls from recruitment agencies and advertising sales.
