Vacant job

Stockholm – our capital city filled with millions of dreams, expectations, and ambitions. We work for everyone who lives here today and in the future. We are now looking for you who want to think big, new, and different with us – for the people of Stockholm.

The Norra Innerstad district area consists of the central parts of Stockholm, Norrmalm, and Östermalm. Here, we work to provide our 155,000 residents with the best services in areas such as preschool, social services, elderly care, and urban development. We welcome you who want to make a difference for the residents of Norra Innerstad.

Welcome to us!

In Norra Innerstad, there are youth clubs: Humlanhuset, Vasastan Youth Club, and Tre Liljor. We also offer location-independent activities in cooperation with local associations, focusing on Hjorthagen. The youth clubs run open activities with a focus on promotion and support. Our operations are characterized by an inclusive and norm-critical approach where young people, regardless of gender identity, socioeconomic background, sexual orientation, functional diversity, cultural or ethnic affiliation, are welcome and should feel safe. Our youth clubs are part of the preventive work area, which includes three units: Youth Leisure, Support for Young People, and Support for Families.

We are currently seeking three fixed-term positions with varying degrees of employment.

Your role as a Youth Club Leader

In your role as a Youth Club Leader, you will be part of a work group that jointly initiates, plans, implements, and evaluates activities with and for visitors. Young people should be encouraged to dare to carry out their own ideas through support and guidance from creative and engaged youth leaders. The relationship-building work is an important part of the role, where you are expected to be an attentive adult who is clear in your communication and knows when to guide others further. In your professional role, you will be part of developing and working for a positive environment for and with young people and colleagues. Collaboration takes place with both internal and external partners within the district and throughout Stockholm City. The position includes some administrative work.

Your skills and experience

For the position, you need:

• Youth Club Leader education, social pedagogy education, or other relevant post-secondary education that the employer deems equivalent
• Experience working in open youth activities
• Fluency in writing and speaking Swedish

Being multilingual is an advantage.

As a person, you have the ability to build good relationships with young people and are confident and engaged. You are structured, have good collaboration skills, and are clear in your communication with the target group and colleagues. You are solution-focused, independent, creative, and have the ability to adapt when necessary as the operations are dynamic. We would appreciate it if you had experience leading planned and guided activities.

It is important that you have the ability to capitalize on the young people's own interests and initiatives.

What we offer

We offer exciting and varied work with fun, knowledgeable colleagues and engaged managers. You will have dedicated colleagues at our youth clubs in central Stockholm, where the work is characterized by an open climate and good working conditions. We value our employees and would like you to take advantage of health benefits, training opportunities, and holiday swapping.

Other

The work is carried out during young people's free time, which means daytime, evening time, and Saturdays, according to schedule. As a Youth Club Leader, you work with all open youth activities that the district operates.

We will conduct ongoing selection and interviews. If employment becomes relevant, we will request extracts from the police criminal record for work with children.
