Nursing Unit Manager for New Geriatric Care Ward, Ersta Hospital

About the Workplace Ersta Hospital is part of Ersta Diakoni and is Sweden's largest mission-driven hospital with a clear value foundation – to see the whole person. With roots dating back to 1851, we have provided healthcare on Södermalm in Stockholm, but we serve patients from across the country. Here we offer high-quality, specialized healthcare with both breadth and advanced expertise. We are a university healthcare unit and conduct research, education, and development in collaboration with Karolinska Institute. We are growing to help more people, and since 2023 the hospital's capacity has tripled and eight new operations have been launched. The Geriatric Clinic currently consists of three geriatric care wards, a specialized rehabilitation unit, and a cognitive outpatient clinic. Care is based on a holistic view of the person and close multiprofessional collaboration. We employ doctors, nurses, nursing assistants, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, dietitians, social workers, speech therapists, and administrators with high expertise in geriatric care. We are now planning to open a smaller care ward with eight beds. As nursing unit manager, you will be involved from the start and have great opportunities to influence both work methods and how the operations develop. We support your leadership through short decision-making paths, internal management and leadership development programs, and a strong network of management colleagues within Ersta Hospital. About the Role As nursing unit manager, you are responsible for operations, staff, work environment, and finances on the care ward, which will have approximately 15 employees. Because it is a smaller ward, you combine the management role with clinical work as a coordinator. In your role as coordinator, you work together with the patient and in collaboration with family members, municipalities, home healthcare, and primary care to create a safe and well-coordinated discharge from the ward. You are part of the geriatric clinic's management group and work closely with other managers and professionals. The role gives you the opportunity to be close to daily operations while contributing to the clinic's development and shared work methods. This is an assignment for someone who wants to build something new rather than manage something already established. Together with your staff and colleagues, you create a stable and sustainable care ward with high quality for geriatric patients. The position is 100%, 40 hours per week, Monday–Friday. Who Are You? You are a confident and clear leader who builds trust, structure, and joy in work even when much is in motion. You are present in operations and have the ability to create conditions for your staff to use and develop their expertise. You enjoy developing both teams and work methods and can balance structure and stability with momentum. You take initiative when needed, make decisions with good judgment, and have the ability to see both the operation's entirety and what needs to be done here and now. Your commitment and approach align with Ersta Diakoni's value foundation of seeing the whole person and our core values of professionalism, trust, and hope. Your Experience We are looking for someone who: is a licensed nurse has experience in leadership within inpatient care has experience leading change and developing teams and work methods. Other Information About the Recruitment We use assessments in our management and leadership recruitment. We apply a trial employment period.
