WORK TASKS As a social secretary at the Reception Unit, your main task is to handle reports concerning children and young people aged 0-20 years. Most oral reports come to the unit via the municipality's service center. Together with our colleagues at the service center, you have an important function as the first contact within social services for citizens and our cooperation partners. The work is varied and engaging and involves many but short-term contacts with both individuals and families. We place great emphasis on meeting and conversing with the children and adults affected by the report. The work is conducted from a systemic theory perspective with a focus on what resources, strengths, and risks exist for the individual, family, and network. Within the administration, there are several open support measures for individuals and families that we can refer to when we do not initiate an investigation. We have regular supervision from an external supervisor and continuous case review with the group leader (individually and in groups). Case management and documentation occur in LifeCare. Järfälla Social Services has a BBIC license and all work is conducted in accordance with BBIC. QUALIFICATIONS We are seeking colleagues who share our value of a clear citizen perspective—that is, that we exist for the municipality's residents. You have a degree in social work and should have experience from authority work within social services, preferably concerning children and/or young people. You are well familiar with applicable legislation and BBIC, and it is a merit if you have training in Signs of Safety and MI. The role of social secretary requires that you have good collaboration skills and that you can quickly adapt to new tasks or acute situations. You are organized, stable, and have the ability to understand other people's perspectives or situations without taking on their emotions. You communicate well in speech and writing and can adapt your communication based on what the situation requires. You think about social services from a holistic perspective and are motivated by being involved in developing and improving your operations. Great emphasis will be placed on personal qualities.
