Stockholm is flourishing as the country's leading growth region. We work toward a labor market where everyone can find their place – where employers find the right skills and where people get an opportunity to enter or return to working life. We support Stockholmers' journey toward work or studies through labor market initiatives and adult education.
Welcome to Us
Adult Education in Stockholm offers a wide range of programs within municipal adult education. We have over 40,000 students studying with us annually. Adult Education is divided into four operational areas; this unit belongs to the Admissions and Support operational area. The operational area consists of the Admissions Unit, Support and Testing Unit, Guidance Unit, Student Teams and Center for Civic Orientation, Operations Support, Language Support Unit, and Adult Education Center Järva.
We base our work on the needs of Stockholmers, and our goal is to offer the best possible service to those who turn to us. At our centers, Stockholmers can apply for Swedish for Immigrants (SFI) as well as basic and upper secondary municipal adult education (Komvux). Residents can also get information about studies and schools, book study guidance sessions, and test their knowledge in Swedish, English, and mathematics. We have close collaboration between our units as we depend on each other in our respective missions.
What We Offer
Adult Education Center Järva started as a unit on January 1, 2025. Since our launch, we have worked on developing the unit and driving change, where competence and collaboration form the foundation of our work. We are a small team with mixed professions: study and career counselors, study administrators, test pedagogues, coordinators, and a unit manager. You will have the opportunity to continue developing our operations based on your profession as a study administrator. The role offers a varied daily routine where outreach work, collaboration with local actors, and development of our operations are natural parts of the assignment.
Our workplace is located in Kista galleria, three minutes from the subway. We work office hours and primarily on-site at the office, but in the future, some evenings may be included as part of our mission to also work with local collaboration and outreach efforts to get more people into studies. Part of your working time is scheduled; we see that you are positive about this and flexible when it comes to covering for colleagues as needed. We also staff various locations in the city districts, such as citizen service centers and libraries, which means you will work at these locations according to schedule.

Your Role
As a study administrator, you provide information about studies, study paths, and schools within Komvux in various contexts. You receive visitors at our customer service area at Adult Education Center Järva and when we are present at citizen service centers or libraries. You assist with Komvux applications as needed and otherwise provide excellent service to our customers.
Through your outreach work and contacts with residents and local actors, you contribute to making more people aware of the possibilities offered by adult education and enabling them to take the next step toward studies. You work proactively to inspire and motivate people to pursue studies. You participate in outreach activities and events and help ensure that adult education is visible and information about Komvux studies is spread, especially in Järva and the Western District. You participate in establishing and maintaining collaboration relationships with local actors, both public and within civil society.
You actively contribute to developing our operations and our routines and working methods with a focus on quality. To continuously improve, we monitor customer satisfaction and use the results to further develop our work.
Your Competence and Experience
We are looking for someone who has:
- Upper secondary education
- Current experience in administrative work in a similar administrative role as the employer deems relevant
- Experience working in service with customer interaction
- Current experience establishing and maintaining collaboration relationships
- Very good computer skills and solid knowledge of the Office suite
- Good ability to express yourself well in Swedish and English, both orally and in writing.
It is meritorious if you have:
- Experience working with newly arrived persons/people who have Swedish as a second language
- Current experience working in adult education
- Current experience working with outreach efforts.
In your role as a study administrator, you have significant personal responsibility and need to be self-directed and flexible in your work, with the ability to switch between different tasks and target groups based on situation and need. You have many contact points, which requires you to be service-oriented, have very good collaboration skills, and be able to work effectively in a team with both colleagues, other staff members, and collaboration partners. Since a large part of the position involves informing and clarifying, you need to be able to adapt your communication to both the recipient and the situation. We also see that you have a genuine interest in participating in the unit's development work and are willing to share your knowledge and experience.
We will place great emphasis on your personal abilities, skills, and motivation for the position.
