Vacant job

In Trelleborg, we work together to build a growing, successful municipality where it is good to live. Our 61 villages and 21 city districts are creative meeting places bubbling with life. Here, we have ambitions, share our stories, and come as we are. This openness allows us to welcome others in the same generous and curious spirit.

Welcome to join the journey!

The Employment Administration works to promote the municipality's growth by creating conditions for residents to engage in lifelong learning and achieve self-sufficiency. We focus on skills supply and coordinated operational services for businesses, addressing complex societal challenges with innovative approaches. The administration consists of three departments: Employment, Quality and Coordination, and Campus Trelleborg, and employs approximately 100 dedicated staff members.

Since everything Trelleborg Municipality does is based on our core values of openness, respect, and responsibility, it is crucial that these values are just as natural to you as they are to us in our work.

The Workplace

Here, you will have the opportunity to make a difference for people and contribute to skills supply and growth. You are welcome to a newly formed unit and workplace aimed at getting more municipal residents into employment under the activity requirement introduced in the Social Services Act from July 1, 2026.

We are the workplace for you if you are passionate about meeting people and want to make a difference. Through new methods and approaches, your competence, and your engagement, you will support municipal residents on their path to education or employment.

As a supervisor, you act as a support and operational leader for workplace-based services at the municipality's administrations – in this case, the Social Services Administration. The work may take place in both Trelleborg Municipality and Svedala Municipality. Our applicants receiving social assistance will participate in work training/internships while simultaneously undergoing parallel measures to approach the labor market, with the goal of moving from benefits to employment.

Responsibilities

As a supervisor within the care and elderly care operations in both municipalities, you play a central role in supporting, guiding, and leading participants during their work training/internship.

Your main responsibilities as a leader include supervising individuals and groups, distributing tasks, and working on theoretical and practical competence-building activities for participants, primarily in care homes. You will be present daily at various workplaces within the municipalities.

You will also collaborate with other actors within the municipality as you work together with the individual and their development. You will work closely with each individual, and your contribution will be decisive for the participants' success. You will become part of a dedicated team within the Employment Administration, where collaboration, open dialogue, and support from various professions, such as employment secretaries and recruiters, are key to success.

The position is located within the Employment Administration, which is responsible for financial assistance and labor market initiatives in both Trelleborg and Svedala municipalities, meaning work may occur in both locations.

The supervisor's responsibility is both supervisory and operational in daily work, focusing on supporting, guiding, and distributing tasks related to participants' work training. The operational leadership role is limited to the practical work in the participants' training activities. Formal personnel responsibility and overall leadership for regular employees remain with the responsible manager in the respective operations.

Qualifications

To be considered for the position of supervisor within care and elderly care, we are looking for you who have completed upper secondary education or other relevant education deemed useful by the employer. You have experience working within care and elderly care and have previously worked with supervising and/or leading others. Furthermore, you have very good knowledge of Swedish, both spoken and written.

You also have basic IT skills and experience with documentation. A category B driver's license for manual transmission is a requirement for the position.

It is meritorious if you have experience working with individuals needing extra support, such as those with mental health issues or functional variations, as well as experience working with individuals outside the labor market. We also look for a genuine commitment to supporting individuals toward education or work, as well as a good ability to motivate and inspire others.

Great importance will be attached to personal suitability. You are goal-oriented and capable of working towards set goals and delivering results. You contribute to good collaboration through openness and a professional attitude. We are looking for someone who is confident, calm, attentive, and accommodating in their interactions. You are meticulous, quality-conscious, stress-resistant, and able to focus on what matters. You also have the ability to lead and inspire those around you and have a genuine commitment to supporting municipal residents on their path to education or employment.
