Teacher Assistant at Orrholms School

Karlstads kommun · Full-time

Västra torggatan 26, Karlstad, Sweden

Description Are you looking for administrative work where you get to be the hub of the school? Then you might be our new teacher assistant! We are now recruiting a teacher assistant for Orrholms School. Starting in the 2026/2027 school year, Orrholms School will be an F-9 school instead of an F-6 school as before. In addition to Orrholms School's own students, the middle school will receive students from Skattkärr and Väse. Middle school students will move to Orrholms School gradually. This means that the middle school in fall 2026 will have grade 7, fall 2028 grades 7 and 8, and fall 2029 a fully developed middle school with grades 7-9. The school is centrally located yet in a natural environment. Orrholms School is surrounded by the Väner inlets Orrholmsviken and Tullholmsviken and is close to City Garden, Orrleken, Naturrum, Mariebergsskogen, and Orrholmens Preschool. Responsibilities In your role as teacher assistant, you will relieve teachers of administrative tasks so they can focus on their educational mission. This can include, for example, invoicing, ordering student and staff computers, absence reporting, producing information materials for guardians, etc. As a teacher assistant, you are also responsible for the school's substitute teacher coordination, which requires you to have the ability to oversee the entire operation and organize to ensure high quality in teaching. In the morning, you also greet the substitute teacher, distribute schedules, keys, and other work materials they need for the day. Qualifications We are looking for you with education as a teacher assistant or other competence that can be assessed as equivalent. It is meritorious if you have previously worked in school or preschool. As a person, you are organized and can switch between working on different types of tasks during a day. You are self-motivated and take responsibility for getting your tasks done. You have an easy time making contacts, collaborating, and enjoy providing service and making things easier for others. The position is full-time. At the time of writing, it is somewhat open whether the position will be only at Orrholms School or combined with another school. We will discuss this further at a potential interview. The position will be filled if required decisions are made. Interviews may take place on a rolling basis.
