Vacant job

Permanent position 70% = 7 day-shift passes per month starting August 2026

We are looking for a young woman or man, aged 18–40, who wants to work as a personal assistant for this lovely young man. Here is his introduction.

Hello!

I am an independent, cheerful, and positive 20-year-old with a physical disability. My hands are a bit clumsy, but I am mobile and can move between my assistive devices, though I need some support with this in certain situations. Otherwise, I need help with guidance, feeding, cooking, and personal hygiene, among other things.

My interests include going to the gym, training in various parasports, playing chess, listening to music, reading books, and attending events.

As an assistant, you should be reliable, positive, and engaged. I don't say no to a bit of humor. You should not be afraid to jump in when needed, but you also need the ability to stay in the background when required. As mentioned, I am independent and do not have an intellectual disability. Social competence is important, as is being handy, since my assistive devices sometimes need adjusting and fixing. Being able to speak and understand Swedish is a given.

I have been accepted to Valjevikens Folk High School this autumn and am super excited about it. I will have my own apartment with a separate assistant room and will live at the school during the terms. I will go home on some weekends, and I am often out doing various activities, so you need a driver's license and access to a car. My working hours will be day-shift passes from 08:00 in the morning until 08:00 the next day. You will sleep over at my place, and if I need help during the night, you will be ready as an assistant. You will be with me during the school day and help me with everything that a pair of clumsy hands might struggle with. In the afternoons and evenings, I will likely participate in the school's activities, and you will be with me. At night, you will sleep in a separate assistant room next to mine and help me if I need anything during the night.
