to apply for the job
Do you want to use your experience from service or retail in a job that makes a real difference – every day? At our Stadsmissionen second-hand store, you get to combine customer service, sales, and team leadership with supporting people on their path to working life.
About the role
We offer a varied and fast-paced job where no two days are alike. As an employee, you are an important part of the customer experience – you create an inspiring store environment, meet customers with engagement, and ensure the store always feels welcoming and vibrant. Your tasks include:
- Customer service and cash register work
- Picking goods, merchandising, and keeping the store inspiring and attractive
- Sorting, pricing, and handling incoming goods in the warehouse
In addition, you play a key role as a career coach. This means you work closely with our participants in labor market integration programs – you teach practical tasks in the store, support their development, and contribute to strengthening their path toward employment or studies. With us, you get more than just a retail job – you get the opportunity to contribute to change. Every day you make a difference, both for our customers and for the people we support in life.
Who are you?
You likely have experience in service or retail and thrive in a high-tempo environment with lots of customer contact. You are driven by providing good service and creating positive experiences – for both customers and colleagues. At the same time, you have an interest in people and want to contribute to something bigger. You are motivated by supporting others and seeing them develop. We believe you:
- Are confident, social, and proactive
- Have an eye for merchandising, color, and form
- Enjoy working both independently and in a team
- Have a genuine commitment to sustainability, reuse, and social work
- Contribute to an inclusive, warm, and respectful environment
You share Stadsmissionen's values and want to work for a more humane society. We place great emphasis on personal suitability.
We are looking for someone who has:
- Experience from service roles or retail (preferably second-hand)
- Experience in customer service and sales
- Good Swedish language skills (written and spoken)
- Good physical fitness (the job may involve heavy lifting)
It is an advantage if you have:
- Experience in social work or meeting people in vulnerable life situations
- Post-secondary education, e.g., social pedagogy or therapeutic pedagogy
- Language and cultural competence
- Category B driver's license and experience driving light trucks
Other information

- A certificate from the Swedish Enforcement Authority (belastningsregister) is required upon hiring
