Every year, Försäkringskassan makes 21 million decisions that impact people's lives and society as a whole. We distribute approximately 260 billion kronor annually. We manage everyone's tax money. It is a great responsibility. That is why we carefully review each case, follow laws and regulations, inform and guide, care, and show consideration. It is a job for someone who wants to take responsibility. Welcome to Försäkringskassan. Are you a lawyer who wants to make a difference? The Legal Department at Försäkringskassan is now seeking qualified lawyers (specializing as legal experts) for several of the department's areas. Tasks and Responsibilities The Legal Department is responsible for the legal governance of Försäkringskassan's operations. This includes, among other things: responsibility for legal governance in the social insurance area, which means, for example, developing regulations, general guidelines, and legal positions, responsibility for legal governance within EU coordination of social security, monitoring and analyzing EU Court of Justice case law, as well as coordinating the agency's EU work and international cooperation, responsibility for standardization and coordination of administrative law and matters related to digitalization, data protection, and public access and confidentiality, responsibility for the agency's regulatory development needs for amended or new legislation and consultation responses on legal matters, providing legal support to the agency's departments that do not work with social insurance law, which includes matters in, for example, business law, security and preparedness, public access and confidentiality, and administrative law. The lawyer position suits you if you want and can work independently, with significant personal responsibility and mandate. An interest in various societal issues is also valuable. You may represent Försäkringskassan in external forums, for example in meetings with the Government Offices, other agencies, and civil society organizations, as well as in work against abuse and crime in the welfare systems. Part of the work involves developing operations and working methods. You work broadly with many colleagues both within the agency and with other actors such as other government agencies. You will join a workplace where curiosity, modesty, and consideration for colleagues are taken for granted. We offer stimulating and developmental work with good opportunities to balance work and personal life. A good working environment is important to us. Employees have the opportunity to work part of their time remotely. Work in the Legal Department involves handling classified information, which places high demands on proper handling. Therefore, it is important that you have a high level of security awareness. Your Background We are looking for someone with a law degree and bar admission (notariemeriterad) or experience from other qualified legal work that we consider equivalent. You need very strong legal knowledge. Experience from a higher court in the general or administrative court system (for example as an assessor or judicial secretary) is an advantage. Experience from qualified legal work in the Government Offices or another government agency is also an advantage. Your Qualities You have excellent collaboration skills and enjoy working with others to achieve common goals. At the same time, you can take own initiatives, work independently, and take responsibility for delivering high-quality results. You have a systematic and thorough work approach. You also have good analytical skills and express yourself very well in speech and writing. You can adapt your communication to suit the recipient and situation. We place great importance on personal suitability. Other Information Multiple positions, permanent, full-time, with start date by agreement. Probation may apply.
