About the Workplace
Ersta Hospital is part of Ersta Diakoni and is Sweden's largest nonprofit hospital with a clear mission—to see the whole person. With roots dating back to 1851, we have provided healthcare on Södermalm in Stockholm, but we welcome patients from across the country. We offer high-quality, specialized healthcare with both breadth and cutting-edge expertise. We are a university healthcare unit that conducts research, education, and development in collaboration with Karolinska Institute. We are growing to help more patients, and since 2023, the hospital's capacity has tripled and eight new operations have launched.
The Palliative Clinic consists of specialized inpatient palliative care (SPSV), advanced home healthcare (ASIH), and Lilla Erstagården. Together, we are approximately 130 employees with strong shared commitment to high-quality palliative care.
Our ASIH provides advanced home healthcare to patients with complex care needs. The operation has grown approximately 30 percent over the past two years and currently serves around 180 patients with 50 staff members. To create good conditions for close and sustainable leadership, we are now strengthening the operation with an additional unit manager. The role involves leading and developing the operation together with a colleague manager and helping maintain high quality and close culture as the operation grows.
About the Role
As Care Unit Manager for ASIH, you are responsible for operations, quality, work environment, and finances. You lead the operation together with a colleague manager and play a central role in ensuring high quality, good results, and a well-functioning work environment.
You lead an experienced multiprofessional team consisting of registered nurses, nursing assistants, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, social workers, and coordinators. The staff has high expertise in palliative care and work together to create security and continuity for patients and loved ones in their home environment. Physicians are led by the operation's medical director.
You are part of the Palliative Clinic's management group together with the operation manager, medical director, and other unit managers. In the role, you collaborate closely with both colleagues within the clinic and other departments at the hospital.
The assignment combines operational leadership with operation development. Together with staff and colleagues, you drive the operation's development to create the best possible care for patients and loved ones.
We would like you to combine the management role with some clinical practice.
Who Are You?
You are a confident and present leader who enjoys working close to operations and is motivated by developing both people and working methods. Through clarity, responsiveness, and trust, you create engagement and good conditions for your staff to succeed in their roles.
You have the ability to create structure and direction in a complex operation while remaining present in daily work. You see the value of collaboration between different professions and build good relationships both within and outside your own operation.
At Ersta, we view care as a competence. For you, this means seeing people's needs, building trust, and leading with both heart and professionalism. You understand that sustainable results are created through engaged staff, a good work environment, and leadership characterized by respect, responsibility, and trust.
You appreciate working in a values-driven organization where care for patients, loved ones, and staff go hand in hand with high quality ambitions.
You share Ersta's mission of seeing the whole person and our core values: professionalism, trust, and hope.
