KABIT AB · plný úvazek

Hörby, Švédsko

Do you want to work closely with young people and help create sustainable change in their everyday lives? At KABiT, we work with children and young people who need support, structure, and trusted adults around them. Our work is based on each individual's needs and circumstances and is built on close relationships, clarity, and professional approach. With us, you work in a team where different competencies and experiences come together. We place great emphasis on collaboration and staff helping each other understand situations, find solutions, and develop working methods. Quality in treatment work is created by engaged and competent staff who have the opportunity to be present in the young people's daily lives. Therefore, high staff-to-resident ratios and close collaboration are important parts of our operations. Now we are looking for you who want to become part of our teams and contribute to a safe, stable, and developmentally supportive everyday life for the young people living with us. About the work As a treatment pedagogue at KABiT, you work closely with young people in their everyday lives. This means you participate in everything from structured treatment work to daily routines and activities. Workdays can look very different. For example, you might support a young person preparing for school, attend a meeting, cook together, plan an activity, or help resolve a difficult situation. An important part of the role is creating predictability and security. For many of our young people, functioning relationships with adults is an important part of development. Therefore, you need to be present and engaged while also being able to set clear boundaries. The work requires both patience and flexibility. A solution that works for one young person may not work for another. We therefore work in individually tailored ways and try to understand what lies behind a behavior rather than simply reacting to what is visible in the moment. What you get at KABiT: · At the beginning of your employment, you attend an orientation day where our unit managers present the operations, routines, and expectations. · We offer both company-wide and individual development opportunities. · We work with a unit manager on-site at all units, which means short decision-making processes and operational support in your work every day. · External supervision. · Wellness allowance of 2500 kr/year. Requirements: Relevant post-secondary education, for example as a social pedagogue, social worker, or other education that the employer deems equivalent. Experience working with young people, preferably within HVB or similar operations. Very good ability to express yourself in Swedish in speech and writing. Class B driver's license as the work includes driving. Merits: Experience working with young people with NPF, self-harm behavior, OCD, eating disorders, or other challenging behaviors. Knowledge of low-arousal approaches and experience handling threatening or challenging situations. Basic knowledge in BBIC, TMO, or CBT. Experience with documentation in journal systems. What are we looking for in you? Beyond education and experience, your personal qualities are important. You need to be able to meet young people calmly and respectfully in all situations. You can be clear without becoming confrontational and you understand the value of building relationships. You also need to be able to accept that development takes time; sometimes you need to try several different approaches before finding the one that works. You are stable and remain calm when much is happening around you, you can combine warmth with clear boundaries, and you take responsibility and work independently.
