Vacant job

Stockholm – our capital city filled with millions of dreams, expectations, and ambitions. We work for everyone living here today and in the future. We are now looking for you who want to think big, new, and differently with us – for the people of Stockholm.

Welcome to us

We work within Area Adults, where we offer support through outpatient care as well as interventions regarding addiction, domestic violence, and financial assistance. You will join our outpatient team, consisting of two social secretaries who work with housing support in our trial and training apartments (FOT).

In this role, you will support individuals living in FOT apartments to maintain their housing and follow the planning established together with the social services. The goal is for them to develop their independence and, in the long term, take over their rental agreements.

We are an experienced and dedicated team in an exciting phase of development, where your experience and perspectives can contribute to developing the operations and making a difference for those we serve.

We offer you

At Area Adults, you will receive an introduction and the opportunity to shadow an experienced colleague. Within the outpatient care, you will meet a dedicated team as well as clear routines and structures that create security in the assignment.

We actively work with collegial learning through reflective teams and horizontal feedback. You are also offered regular internal supervision by our MI-coach as well as external supervision.

Your role

The assignment includes supporting, motivating, and guiding clients towards increased independence and achieving the goals formulated in their work plans.

Currently, we have a special focus on strengthening the clients' ability to take responsibility for their housing based on the requirements of rental laws. This includes, among other things, following up that rent, electricity bills, and home insurance are paid on time and that the residence is maintained satisfactorily. The assignment also involves supporting clients in completing their work plans, for example, by maintaining contact with care and authorities, seeking employment, and participating in other planned interventions.

The social services are undergoing ongoing restructuring, which means that the content and methods of the assignment may develop and change over time based on operational needs and new legal requirements.

• A degree in Social Work (Socialsekreterare)

We consider it meritorious if you have some experience with:

• Work within psychiatry and/or harmful substance use and addiction
• Good knowledge of rental legislation
• Authority practice (public administration)
• MI (Motivational Interviewing)
• Documentation system Paraplyet

To thrive in the role, you have good collaboration skills as the work involves many internal and external contacts. As a person, you are empathetic and have the ability to meet people in different life situations. You are stable in your professional role and confident in making decisions. You have the ability to be flexible when needed and can prioritize in your work. You are structured and meticulous in your approach and enjoy documentation and administration, which make up a large part of the work.

Many of our clients have experience with harmful substance use and addiction and/or mental disabilities. To succeed in the role, you need to feel confident in meeting these target groups and have the ability to create trusting relationships. A respectful and professional approach is crucial for clients to feel safe and willing to accept the support they need.
