YOUR ASSIGNMENT
The position is divided between 50% Senior Social Case Worker and 50% Case Handler.
As a Senior Social Case Worker, you have a management role where you lead and distribute the operational work of the unit. You contribute to ensuring that operations are conducted with legal certainty, cost-efficiency, and in accordance with political decisions and established goals. In daily work, you serve as a support to social case workers on matters concerning preliminary assessments, safety assessments, and prioritizations.
You actively work with operational development, quality assurance, and competency development at both individual and group levels. Through environmental scanning, you stay updated on legislation and changes in the field and serve as a support in implementing guidelines and goals in practice.
As a Case Handler, you are responsible for investigating, assessing, and making decisions regarding financial assistance or support services for adults in various life situations. Your primary focus will be in one of the areas, but since the operation works closely together, we see collaboration and flexibility as important aspects of the assignment. This gives you the opportunity to develop broad competence and contribute to a holistic view of the individual's needs.
Our goal is to strengthen people's conditions for independence and self-sufficiency. We believe in the individual's ability to develop and in the value of close collaboration between colleagues. With us, there is good community spirit where we share knowledge, experiences, and responsibility.
QUALIFICATIONS
We are looking for you who are educated as a social worker. You have experience with government authority work and good knowledge of current legislation, especially the Social Services Act. It is meritorious to have experience with government authority work within adult services. You also have good computer skills. A B-class driver's license is required.
To succeed in the role, we see that you:
Have the ability to coordinate, create engagement, and promote participation.
See the bigger picture and can balance the needs of the operation with the best interests of the individual.
Work well with colleagues, supervisors, and external actors and contribute to solutions through a humble approach.
Are secure, stable, and solution-oriented even in challenging situations.
Work structurally, plan well, and follow tasks from start to finish.
Are initiative-taking, relationship-building, and adapt your communication to the recipient and situation.
We place great emphasis on personal suitability.
ABOUT THE WORKPLACE
We are part of the transition to future social services and work to strengthen preventive efforts and develop new ways to meet the needs of adults. Together, we are building a social service that is accessible, knowledge-based, and close to the residents.
With us, you will meet an open and trusting work climate where engagement, participation, and professional development are in focus. We see learning as a natural part of work and encourage new ideas and ways of working.
You receive close support from both colleagues and management. Through regular case reviews, team meetings, and collegial supervision, we create good conditions for quality, security, and development. With us, no one is alone in their assignment – we take joint responsibility for the operation and support each other in daily work.
