Do you want to be part of building a new operation from the ground up that truly makes a difference?
We are seeking reliable and committed support assistants for a newly established residential facility tailored for a young person, with individually designed services and staffing.
This is a position for you if you want to work closely with a young person with autism and intellectual disability, and if you value structure, relationships, and long-term commitment.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
As part of our work toward a fairer and more unbiased recruitment process, the care and social services department has chosen to collaborate with Hubert.ai.
After you submit your application, you will be directly invited to a chat-based initial interview with our virtual recruitment assistant Hubert. The purpose of this interview is to make the selection process faster and more accurate. It does not replace the human interview, but serves as a first step that helps us create better conditions for a more in-depth conversation later in the process.
The interview typically takes about 15-20 minutes to complete, and we hope you will do it as soon as you have the opportunity.

WORK DUTIES
As a support assistant with us, you will work to provide individually tailored support in the young person's daily life. The work is entirely based on the young person's needs and conditions and aims to create security, predictability, and a functioning structure in both everyday activities.
You use visual support strategies, picture supports, and alternative/augmentative communication (AAC) to facilitate communication and participation. An important part of your role is also to prevent and manage challenging behaviors through a low-arousal and respectful approach.
The work takes place in close collaboration with colleagues and your manager, with clear routines, regular supervision, and support in the operations. Staffing is adapted to the young person's needs and situation, and the work is conducted in a team.
You collaborate with guardians and other professionals, and are responsible for documentation according to applicable guidelines. Since the operation is still being developed, you will also be involved in shaping work methods, structure, and content.
QUALIFICATIONS

Have experience working with children, young people, or adults in LSS (or similar services) and have good knowledge of autism and intellectual disability (ID). You are experienced with or curious about working with challenging behaviors and feel comfortable with a low-arousal, structured approach.
As a person, you are stable, secure, and have good self-awareness. You enjoy relationship-based work and see possibilities in working within an operation that is still being shaped, where your commitment and ideas are valued.
Qualifications and requirements:
• Education in care and support, child and youth care, social pedagogy, or other relevant education
• Experience from LSS or similar services
• Good knowledge of low-arousal approaches, visual support strategies, and AAC
• Very good ability to express yourself in Swedish, fluent in speech and writing
Before employment, a criminal record check is required:
• Personal records check
• Extract for work in LSS services
We offer:
• The opportunity to be part of building a completely new LSS operation
• Close, meaningful, and relationship-based work with a young person
• An engaged team with clear structures, supervision, and support

In this recruitment, we use a digital selection process where focus is on your competence. We therefore do not accept personal letters. Instead, ensure that your CV is up to date.
