About the Workplace We are organizationally part of the Children and Youth Unit within Solna Municipality's Social Services. We have broad expertise and work to develop close collaboration between the family court, investigation teams, intake groups, placement teams, open services, network teams, and field operations. We value teamwork, knowledge sharing, and an open work environment. We believe we develop best together and actively work to create a workplace where it is natural to share experiences, support each other with complex cases, and contribute to ongoing organizational development. We strive to adapt our mission to the needs of our residents and meet parents and children in a way that is helpful and respectful. For us, it's important to combine high professional quality with good service and high accessibility. We have a strong focus on children's participation and developing work methods that strengthen the child's perspective. Signs of Safety is our fundamental approach both among ourselves and with the families we meet. The unit wants to collaborate with our other units to maintain BIFF groups and Whole Child initiatives. Our Offer We offer: - stimulating and responsible work in a dedicated and knowledgeable work group - mentoring and support from experienced colleagues during onboarding - external supervision, which we are very satisfied with - ongoing professional development in areas such as Signs of Safety, family law training, and Whole Child - newly renovated nice facilities in Solna Business Park with good transportation near Sundbyberg station - annual working hours and wellness benefits, possibility for vacation exchange - remote work up to 2 days per week in consultation with your manager What Does the Work Involve? The family court works both preventatively and on assignment from other authorities, primarily the district court. In preventive work, we offer counseling, information meetings, voluntary collaboration meetings, and establish agreements with the goal of helping parents find sustainable solutions based on the child's best interests. Parental support initiatives through Whole Child and BIFF groups are close to our hearts. We work to strengthen parental cooperation and create conditions for children to have security, stability, and good relationships with their parents. The child's perspective is always in focus. We meet with children to inform, listen, and involve them in matters concerning their lives when parents disagree. We work closely with Solna District Court to follow up on the quality of our work and ensure the court receives the information it needs to make its decisions. Our reports include disclosures, arranging visitation support, holding collaboration meetings, and conducting custody, residence, and visitation investigations. Investigations are our way of highlighting the child rights perspective and feeling that we can make a difference. Our goal is to help children achieve security and stability and reduce risks and increase safety. We always want to explore the possibility of getting children's parents to agree and find solutions when appropriate and possible. Other important parts of the assignment are adoption matters as well as paternity and parenthood investigations. Through these assignments, we contribute to children receiving the right to their origin, identity, and rights. Here in Solna, Sundbyberg, and Ekerö, we all work with all areas, which makes the work both broad and developmental. In short – with us you get varied, qualified, and meaningful work where the best interests of the child are always at the center. Who Are We Looking For?
