Welcome to the small, strength-based municipality with great opportunities!

Here you have the chance to contribute with socially important services, for those we are here for, together with your colleagues. We start from well-being factors and have a strength-based approach that focuses on the strengths of individuals and the organization. This is also what we communicate and give feedback on.

About the Operations

Hylte Municipality offers socially important operations where safety, security, and preparedness are in focus. As a Security Coordinator, you belong to the municipality's newly formed security unit at the secretariat department within the municipal administration. The unit consists of a Security Manager, an Information Security Coordinator, a Safety Coordinator, and two Security Coordinators. Since the Safety Coordinator will be on leave for a longer period, we are now looking for a Security Coordinator with a focus on crime prevention work. Part of the role also includes coordinating issues related to security, crisis preparedness, and civil defense. Within the group, everyone has their own areas of responsibility, but they work closely together and take a joint approach to reduce vulnerability and avoid the risk of working in silos.

The unit drives the strategic, municipality-wide work within security and preparedness and works closely with the municipality's various departments to support them in measures within the areas we are responsible for.

You lead relevant working groups, inform internally and externally about the work, coordinate work against violent extremism, and are responsible for coordinating and reporting damage reports on the municipality's properties.

Together with other employees, you are also responsible for issues within security, crisis preparedness, civil defense, and information security. The work includes training, developing steering documents and plans, handling consultations, and extensive internal and external collaboration.

The role develops based on the municipality's needs and your experience, which gives good opportunities to influence both working methods and areas of responsibility.

Qualifications
