Your responsibilities
Do you want to be part of developing the future of social services? We are now recruiting two social secretaries for our area-based social services in Lambohov and Ryd.
In this role, you will work proactively to identify and support municipality residents who need social support and guidance. Your work includes both outreach activities and support and counseling conversations with children, young people, and families.
Your main responsibilities include working with families to plan support and interventions to improve children's and young people's lives and daily routines. The support may consist of meetings, conversations, group activities, and home visits. The work also includes collaborating with important actors in the area for the families at group and structural levels. You will play an important role in creating meaningful relationships and supporting individuals and families in their efforts toward a better life situation.
Your workplace
You will be part of the Area-Based Social Services unit within Linköping Municipality's social services. Both work groups consist primarily of social secretaries, and we operate from pleasant facilities in the areas. We have an accessible management team on site several days per week in the form of a group leader. We value a culture characterized by commitment, participation, and collaboration. Here you have the opportunity to participate in exciting projects and contribute to innovative solutions that have a real impact on our society.
Working hours are primarily during daytime, but the flexible time agreement allows for evening and weekend work if needed.
About you
We are looking for someone with a degree in social work, behavioral science, or other education that the employer considers equivalent. Previous experience in social work is a requirement, and we consider it particularly positive if this is with children and families. Knowledge of systems theory and FIT (Feedback Informed Treatment) is also desirable. A B-class driving license is a requirement, as work-related travel may occur. The work involves extensive client contact and documentation, which means it is a requirement that you can communicate orally and in writing in Swedish.
We are looking for an outgoing social secretary who has the ability to build and maintain professional relationships with both residents and colleagues. Your commitment and enthusiasm are crucial to inspiring and motivating others and creating participation within the team. You work independently and in a structured manner, take responsibility for driving processes forward, and handle complex situations. With your good collaboration skills, you listen actively, communicate clearly, and resolve conflicts constructively, which is essential to successfully meet residents' needs for guidance and support.
