The Labor Market and Development Unit is an engaged workplace where we work together to create opportunities for people to move toward employment, education, and self-sufficiency. Our mission is to support individuals outside the labor market through both individual coaching and structured group initiatives that strengthen participants' conditions for achieving their goals. We work based on the new activity requirement, which means a clear focus on activity, participation, and progression. As a Labor Market Consultant, you will meet people with different backgrounds, experiences, and needs, while contributing to developing initiatives that make a real difference for the individual. An important part of the work is collaboration. We work closely with colleagues in social services, the Swedish Public Employment Service, the Swedish Social Insurance Agency, educational activities, the region, the business sector, and other important actors to create sustainable pathways forward for our participants. With us you will meet engaged colleagues, straightforward collaboration, and an evolving operation. We value trust, competence, and new thinking and believe that the best results are created together. Here you have the opportunity to make an impact, develop, and contribute to meaningful work where people's futures are in focus. 1 position(s).
