Welcome to Boxholm – where life is within reach

Imagine having shops, schools, preschools, a swimming hall, and commuter trains – all within just a few minutes' walk from the city center. And when you want to swap small-town life for big-city energy, you can easily reach Linköping by commuter train in just 30 minutes.
Plus, you have nature literally surrounding you – perfect for recovery, outdoor activities, and quality of life in everyday life. In Boxholm, you get the best of both worlds: the calm, safe, and nature-close – with the big city's opportunities just a stone's throw away.
At the same time, the community thrives with an active associational life and people with strong drive. There's a rich range of sports, culture, and volunteer initiatives that engage both young and old. Together we're building a municipality where community, engagement, and faith in the future grow stronger every day.

Do you want to help develop the social services of the future while driving quality improvements within IFO?
Boxholm Municipality is now seeking an Assistance Assessment Officer who wants to strengthen quality, legal certainty, and development within individual and family care. Together we're driving the transition toward a more accessible, preventive, and sustainable social service – based on the new Social Services Act.
With us, you don't just get a job – you get the opportunity to make a real difference.
About the Role
We're in the middle of an important development journey where we're reviewing and strengthening our working methods. As an Assistance Assessment Officer, you'll have a central role in this work and become an important part of driving and developing quality in the operation.
You'll have the opportunity to combine qualified government administration with an active responsibility for developing and strengthening quality in the operation, and for driving improvement of working methods and processes.
As an Assistance Assessment Officer, you work with government administration according to the Social Services Act (SoL), with older people as your target group. The assignment also includes case handling related to the Act Concerning Support and Service for Persons with Certain Functional Impairments (LSS), where good knowledge and understanding of the legislation is important.
The position also includes:
Handling and assessment of interventions according to SoL
Handling of travel service matters
Estate administration
Collaboration with internal and external stakeholders
Active participation in change and development work related to the new Social Services Act
We work toward a more cohesive, legally secure, and individual-focused approach – where you get to participate and influence how the assignment develops going forward.
Qualifications
We're looking for someone who is trained as a social worker or has other education that the employer deems equivalent. You have experience with government administration according to SoL and knowledge within LSS and IBIC. Experience with travel services and estate administration is a merit, but not a requirement.
You are:
Confident in your role as an Assistance Assessment Officer in making decisions and working in a politically governed organization
Structured, responsible, and professional with an ability for self-leadership
Engaged in quality development and have a desire to contribute to improvement and development
Interested in development work and new working methods as well as environmental monitoring
Skilled at expressing yourself in Swedish, both verbally and in writing
Selection and interviews are ongoing.
Why you should work with us
In Boxholm Municipality, decision-making paths are short and engagement is high. Here you'll have the opportunity to influence both your own work and the operation's development. We offer:
An active role in the transition and reorganization to meet the new Social Services Act
A close and supportive work climate
A meaningful assignment where quality and legal certainty are at the center
A workplace where your competence is utilized and developed
