Investigator for Children and Youth in Sävsjö Municipality

Sävsjö Municipality is a small municipality with great opportunities for growth. In this small community, people are close-knit – between you and your colleagues, and between staff and managers. Together, we work to provide our residents with the best possible service, and in our teams, you will have the chance to take a place, develop, and contribute.

At the Children and Youth unit in Sävsjö, we are divided into an investigation group and a placement group. The investigation group consists of five investigators and two reception secretaries. The placement group consists of three child case workers and three foster home secretaries. Each group is led by a senior social secretary, and the entire unit is led by a unit manager.

As one of our investigators will be on leave to try a different job, we are looking for her replacement.
