JOB DESCRIPTION At Team Family, Children & Youth, we are a group of social workers of various ages and with diverse professional backgrounds who work together to form a team where we complement the knowledge of our more experienced colleagues with the fresh perspectives of those with less experience.  Every cog is equally important in our system as we work to assess the situations of children and youth and to approve and follow up on various forms of support. The tasks are varied, sometimes challenging, but always meaningful. Our in-house supervisor provides a supportive introduction for newcomers, as well as close guidance in day-to-day work for those who feel more confident on the job. To ensure that everyone feels comfortable at work and can perform at their best, we offer various flexible solutions designed to help you balance work and life; of course, we also provide a range of employee benefits.

You must, of course, have a degree in social work and a desire to support people in vulnerable situations, but we’ll figure out the rest together. We have a solid foundation of established routines and proven methods, but we also enjoy developing new ones and enhancing our skills through industry monitoring and training. We strive for a balanced gender and age distribution and see strength in diversity; it’s important that you can express yourself well in spoken and written Swedish, but knowledge of additional languages and/or experience with other cultures is also a plus. A Class B driver’s license is required. Employment type: Permanent position. Duration: Permanent; start date: to be agreed upon. We value a balanced age and gender distribution as well as diversity across all professional fields. We have a smoke-free workplace.
