We are now making a major investment in working with AI as a documentation support linked to our business system, which we implemented during the spring. You are warmly welcome to join us on this development journey!

Job Responsibilities

The work as a case officer within the social assistance group involves processing and investigating financial support. In the group, four case officers work, led in their daily work by a coordinator. The authority unit of the Social Administration consists of all authority exercises together with good conditions for close collaboration.

We work together and actively to find sustainable solutions for those we meet. Internal and external collaboration is important to us as we know it leads to better solutions for our users. We know that a prerequisite for maintaining high quality in the operations we conduct is that employees receive the right support and sufficient time for each case.

We offer case guidance together with the coordinator every week and as needed. Within the unit, there are system administrators who provide support in our business system, Lifecare. We also have external supervision. A varied job with good opportunities for competence development and flexible working hours.

During the previous year, stronger collaboration with the municipality's labor market unit has been implemented, with a focus on jointly moving individuals to self-sufficiency. With the new law regarding activity requirements coming into force on 2026-07-01, we are preparing for this work through close collaboration with the Labor Market Unit (AME) to comply with legal requirements.
