Since 2005, DVT Assistans has worked to create a smooth daily routine for both our clients and our assistants. We do this by offering personal assistance built on engagement, respect, and care – something that makes a real difference for clients, relatives, and our employees. We are an employer that values our staff. At DVT, you work under safe and good working conditions, with collective agreements, occupational pension, and wellness benefits as a natural part of your employment. It is important to us that you, as an assistant, feel appreciated, secure, and involved. Our core values – Participation, Dignity, and Accessibility – permeate the entire operation and are a living part of our daily work. Today, DVT Assistans employs approximately 350 personal assistants. With us, you get more than a job – you get the world's most important job, where you have the opportunity every day to make a real difference in another person's life.

We are looking for you who can step in and work with short notice when regular staff is sick. For the right person, there may be an opportunity to be trained with several of our clients in and around Katrineholm. With some clients, you work in a home with other family members whom you must be able to respect and show consideration for. We place great importance on your cover letter, where you describe among other things why you would be a good fit as a personal assistant. In addition, we require a CV and references.

We are looking for you who:

• are calm and confident
• are flexible and can step in with short notice
• are available to work days, evenings, and nights (usually with waiting time)

For some of our clients, a driver's license and car are required to commute to and from work. To work as a personal assistant at DVT, you must provide a certificate from the Swedish Police Authority (see below).
