Job Responsibilities

This role involves investigative work, as well as administrative tasks and case processing within the Child and Education Administration's area of operations. The position entails independent work but also requires excellent collaboration skills. You will work closely with the administrative leadership and political steering.

About the Workplace

The primary task of the Child and Education Administration is to offer a safe and stimulating learning environment where we equip children and young people for the future. We also work to promote access to cultural and leisure activities for all residents.

The Child and Education Administration operates from a main vision that implies that every child and student should be given the conditions to succeed. The vision means an increased focus on the work of raising knowledge results in both the short and long term, and presupposes a reprioritization in the operations to reach the goal.

You will be part of the Department of Quality and Development, which has the task of supporting and contributing to the development of all the administration's operations. Within the department, there are four units, where you will be part of the Investigation and Development unit. Within the unit, there are two development teachers and two investigators/case handlers. Otherwise, within the department, there is the Central Child and Youth Health unit, the staff unit, and the catering unit.
