Särnmark is one of Sweden's oldest companies specializing in personal assistance and was founded by the current owner in the early 1990s. We work based on clear and explicit values, and our primary goal is to create the best conditions for individualized personal assistance based on each person's unique needs. Särnmark currently has over 3,500 employees, and our customers and staff are located throughout Sweden. Särnmark's headquarters is in Sundbyberg, but we also have offices in other parts of Sweden.
We are now seeking personal assistants for a customer living in Ljusdal.
About the Personal Assistant Role
As a personal assistant, you work closely with a person with a disability in their daily life. You assist and support the person both in everyday activities and during leisure time. Your workplace is wherever the customer is located, and your primary responsibilities involve assisting the customer so they have the conditions to live the life they wish.
Job Responsibilities
Your job responsibilities depend on the customer's needs and lifestyle. They can range from personal hygiene, assistance with mobility, housework, and assisting the customer inside or outside the home.
What We're Looking For
We're looking for someone who is responsible, confident, attentive, and quick to learn new tasks. At Särnmark, you will always receive an introduction from the customer and have access to training on the role of personal assistant. Would you prefer a fixed schedule or would you like to work as a substitute?
About the Employment
The employment is for a fixed term as long as the assistance assignment lasts, and payment is on an hourly basis. We operate on a 6-week schedule, so working hours vary based on the customer's needs: day, evening, overnight, weekdays, and weekends. Some shifts include dual staffing.
Salary and other employment terms are according to the collective agreement for Personal Assistance, Vårdföretagarna - Kommunal.
