Vacant job

Region Västerbotten works to ensure that good health and sustainable development strengthen each other. We take responsibility for an equitable welfare system and for ensuring that research and innovation yield results.

Child and Adolescent Centre (BUC) Västerbotten is a regional clinic with approximately 400 employees and is responsible for all specialist care for children and adolescents aged 0–18 in the county. We operate in Umeå, Skellefteå, and Lycksele. Medical secretaries are available at all locations and play a significant role in the care chain.

Within BUC, we provide health-promoting and treatment interventions based on each child's and adolescent's unique needs and conditions. Do you want to be part of making a difference for children and adolescents who need care, health, and rehabilitation services?

BUC is now looking for two medical secretaries / medical care administrators to join our secretarial team at the child clinic at Norrlands University Hospital (NUS) in Umeå. One position is a one-year temporary assignment, and the other is for six months. The team is located in newly renovated and bright premises close to the rest of the child clinic. Here, you will work with varied tasks and have opportunities for further education and personal development.
