Stockholm – our capital with millions of dreams, expectations, and ambitions. We work for everyone who lives here today and in the future. Now we're looking for you who want to think big, new, and differently with us – for the people of Stockholm. Welcome to Us Family Care Unit 1 in Enskede-Årsta-Vantör is now seeking three new colleagues who are interested in following the development of children placed in foster care and supporting foster families and emergency care homes so they can provide children with the best possible conditions in life. The unit consists of a unit manager and 10 foster care caseworkers, three of whom have decided to retire. Since everyone in the group is highly knowledgeable in foster care, there is room for you with different experience to have colleagues who share their knowledge. We have a good work environment with pleasant colleagues, close management support, educational opportunities, reasonable workload, and qualified support from the area's administration and business development specialists. Family Care Unit 1 is part of one of the Department of Individual and Family's three areas called Children and Youth, Placement and Open Services. The area consists of three units responsible for children and youth placed in public care and two units responsible for open services to children, youth, and their families. We have just over 75 employees in the entire area. What We Offer Stockholm City offers a wellness allowance of 3,000 kr/year and has its own wellness facilities with discounts. We have winter and summer working hours. As an employee in the city, you have the opportunity for more vacation days than what is regulated by law by exchanging vacation day supplements for additional vacation days. We offer flexible working hours with the ability to influence your own working time within set parameters. Your Role The work involves responsibility for a number of cases where in some cases you have the role as the child's own caseworker and in other cases you have the role as the foster family and emergency care home's caseworker. The child's and foster family's caseworker work in a team. Within the area there are two family care units that work closely together, for example with joint occasions for developing methods and procedures, training and experience exchange. Stockholm City offers introductory training in foster care and training in deep interviewing according to the city's model. As the child's caseworker, you follow up on the care of placed children and youth in foster homes and emergency care homes through home visits, conversations with the child, contact with school/preschool, healthcare, etc. You also have contact with the child's biological parents. In the role as the foster family's caseworker, it includes recruiting, investigating, and supporting foster families. The work is flexible, independent, and network-building with many collaborators and individual solutions based on each child's specific needs. Your Competence and Experience We are looking for someone who has: - A degree in social work and several years of experience working with public authority exercises. - You need to have a good ability to work in a structured manner by planning, organizing, and prioritizing your work well. - You are relationship-building, have good collaboration skills, are calm and stable, unpretentious, and have the ability to make wise assessments in a longer perspective.

Stockholm City works with competence-based recruitment aimed at recognizing each person's competence and thereby counteracting discrimination.
