Supervisor in Social Psychiatry for New Residential Support Unit in Dalby

About the Workplace The social psychiatry operations area encompasses several services including residential support, employment, and work rehabilitation. The overall purpose of these operations is to increase opportunities for recovery. By offering flexible support that is individually designed with high accessibility, participation, and self-determination, people with mental health disabilities can live as independently as possible. In the fall of 2026, we are expanding our operations with a new residential support unit in Dalby, serving all villages in Lund Municipality. The unit will initially consist of 4 residential support workers who will be supported by the unit manager and the unit's pedagogical coordinator. About the Role and Your Responsibilities Working in Social Psychiatry means that you are a social and pedagogical support to people with mental health disabilities in a respectful manner. By creating security and structure, you support the service user in their recovery process. Your role includes developing implementation plans together with the service user, conducting regular evaluations, and participating in SIP meetings. We collaborate broadly with, for example, family members, guardians/administrators, and care neighbors. Your daily work is based on each service user's individual implementation plan, which includes, for example, cleaning, cooking, and shopping. You motivate participation in activities and employment, both within and outside the residential setting, to break isolation. Regular documentation is part of your work with us. To assist you in your role as supervisor, you have access to a pedagogical coordinator, a unit administrator, and a team of colleagues who support and strengthen each other. What We're Looking For We are looking for someone who has studied vocational education (YH) with a focus on social psychiatry, social pedagogy, social work, or other education that the employer deems relevant. If you also have training in recovery-oriented approaches such as ESL, MI, LEAP, or CAN assessment, that is a merit. You need to have knowledge of social documentation and the ability to independently manage different digital systems. It is a merit if you have previously worked in the Lifecare system. We would appreciate if you have work experience in social psychiatry and good knowledge of the target group. We also see that you want to be part of shaping and building the new operations from the start. We value personal maturity, that you are self-driven, flexible, stable, and development-oriented. We also want you to be good at collaborating with colleagues, and that you are empathetic and analytical in your approach. A valid driver's license is required, as well as the ability to communicate fluently in Swedish, both spoken and written. Transportation in the work involves both car and bicycle. What We Offer You Permanent employment with full-time hours equivalent to 36.33 hours per week. Interviews are conducted on an ongoing basis. As an employee with us, you are offered a range of benefits focused on balance, security, and health. Lund Municipality is a large organization with many exciting operations and opportunities for employee development. As an employee, you also have access to our benefits portal where you can easily view your benefits and manage them. What We Provide You As an Employee We are part of the Employment and Social Services Administration, where approximately 600 employees provide support to Lund residents who need social services. Together, we ensure that children and young people have the best possible upbringing. We start from the situation of the entire family and ensure that no one suffers harm. This involves providing support to adults with substance abuse and addiction or mental health disabilities, those who need financial assistance, guardianship, administration, or support to study or work, as well as refugees. Here you have space to grow. Within Lund Municipality, we place knowledge at the center and create opportunities for professional development. We offer an inclusive work environment and a chance to make an impact and make a difference. Do you want to be one of us?
