For a living Kiruna.
One thing is certain. With us, you make a difference. We are Kiruna, as we like to say. We are the care staff who hold elderly mothers' hands and the teacher who gets little brother to read his first words. We are the childcare worker who helps someone grow every day and the social worker who does what it takes to change lives. We are the personal assistant who provides freedom and the librarian who brings literature close. We are the home support staff who drive to the villages in snowstorms like midnight sun to be there. We are hundreds of competencies, thousands of people and generations of experience that together provide security, care for, inspire, teach, save lives, think new, move cities, stand up for each other and take care of people. With pride and care. From mountain to city. Today and tomorrow for a living Kiruna. There is something fine in that. Do you also want to work for life, people and the future in Kiruna Municipality? Do you want to create value and make a real difference for what matters?
We look forward to hearing from you!
