Every child deserves safety, development, and a fair chance. That's the conviction that drives us at Hemnovia every day. We are now expanding beyond Gothenburg and are looking for a dedicated family home consultant who wants to make a real difference in Skåne, in an organization where quality and presence go hand in hand.
About Hemnovia
Hemnovia works with family foster care with a focus on quality and long-term sustainability in each placement. We work closely with social services and place the child's safety at the center. We are a growing organization with short decision-making paths and management that is close, present, and supportive even when you're located further from our head office in Gothenburg.
About the Role
As a family home consultant in Skåne, you are our local face. You are responsible for a number of foster families and are their most important professional support in daily life: from recruitment and matching to ongoing supervision and follow-up. You work from your home and plan much of your own workday with home visits and meetings as a natural part of your routine. Your initial introduction and training takes place at our office in Gothenburg, and you return there regularly for team meetings and check-ins.
About the Work Area:
Your base is Skåne, but assignments regularly occur in Kronoberg, Halland, and Blekinge as well. During recruitment of new foster families, occasional travel within the entire region may occur.
You will, among other things:
Recruit, assess, and match emergency and family foster homes in the region
Supervise and support foster families in their assignments, even in complex situations
Conduct home visits and follow up on ongoing placements
Collaborate with social services, schools, and other stakeholders around the child
Document and report continuously to clients and to the team in Gothenburg
Participate in on-call duty according to a rotating schedule
We are Looking for You
You have a degree in social work (socionom) or equivalent higher education in social work with experience in social work, preferably with children and young people. You are a secure and solution-oriented person who navigates confidently in complex relationships between foster families, children, biological networks, and social services. Since you work independently most of the time, it is important that you are self-driven, structured, and comfortable with responsibility while valuing and actively seeking contact with the team.
You also have:
Good knowledge of current legislation, particularly SoL and LVU
Supervisor training for foster families (required)
Ability to maintain focus and structure even when the pace is high, without daily office presence
A warm and professional approach when meeting with foster families and children
Driver's license (Category B) and your own car – the position involves regular home visits and travel in the region (compensation according to current rates)
Resident in Skåne
Meritorious
Experience with family foster care, assessment, or supervision of foster families
Training in BBIC, MI, Signs of Safety, or Ett hem att växa i

Previous experience working from home/remotely in a similar role
We Offer
A role where you make a real difference for children and young people every day
Great freedom to plan your own workday
Regular visits to our office in Gothenburg for team meetings and check-ins
Regular supervision and an individual professional development plan
Wellness allowance and occupational pension
An engaged team with high expertise, even if the distance is sometimes greater
