Welcome to contribute to the work towards our vision – to become the creative hub of the west coast.

The Preschool and Primary School Administration is one of Varberg Municipality's largest administrations with nearly 2,200 employees. Within our areas of operation – preschools, primary schools, and child and student health services – we are here for children and students – together we shape the future.

The Multilingualism Unit in Varberg is the municipality's central resource for mother tongue instruction, study guidance, and language support. The operation consists of a large work team of approximately 34 teachers who support around 750 multilingual children and students in preschools, primary schools, and upper secondary schools.

1 position(s).

RESPONSIBILITIES

As a mother tongue teacher in Spanish with us, you have an important task in strengthening the students' linguistic identity and their ability to learn in all subjects. You become part of an organization that sees the mother tongue as a valuable resource for the student's entire school career and as a path to better understanding the Swedish language. The role involves planning and conducting both mother tongue instruction and study guidance in Spanish, where you, together with other teachers, create the best possible meeting for learning. Your focus is on helping students develop their mother tongue and understand the school's various subjects with the help of their language.

QUALIFICATIONS

To succeed in the role of mother tongue teacher, you have a special ability to create engagement and make language learning meaningful for your students. You show judgment in your work and can independently plan your day and your efforts at different units. Since you meet many different colleagues and students during a week, it is important that you collaborate effectively with others and have an easy time adapting your teaching and approach to the student's age and needs.

We are looking for you who:

• Have a teaching license with eligibility in Spanish or another pedagogical education that we assess as equivalent.
• Have very good language skills in Spanish in both speech and writing.
• Have good knowledge of the Swedish language to be able to collaborate with colleagues and interpret curricula.
• Hold a B driving license. Since the position involves teaching at several different schools and preschools on the same day, you need to be able to move easily between our scattered units.
• Have good digital competence to be able to use municipal learning platforms and digital tools in teaching.

Salary: Monthly salary.
Employment type: Permanent employment.
Duration: Permanent, start date: 2026-08-10.
