Probation Services Northern Norrland encompasses the counties of Västernorrland, Västerbotten, and Norrbotten and has staffed offices in Luleå, Gällivare, Umeå, and Sundsvall. We are now seeking probation officers for Team 1 and Team 2.

Travel is required in both positions, and in Team 2, more frequent travel to our branch office in Skellefteå may occur. Interviews are expected to be conducted in week 35. Job Description Probation Services activities should be perceived as clear and predictable. This is achieved, among other things, by carrying out work in the manner we have determined and described. Probation Services' dual mandate—to both control and support clients—is important regardless of which role you hold within probation work. In its work, Probation Services must collaborate with other actors to ensure clients receive the support they need. As a probation officer, you are responsible for conditionally released clients and clients sentenced to protective supervision who are under supervision. Probation Services is also responsible for electronic monitoring, known as electronic tags, and community service.

As a probation officer, you actively participate in intervention work directed toward clients, including structured case officer conversations based on CBT, motivating participation in program activities, and assisting in release preparation for clients in custody. The probation officer is responsible for ensuring the client executes their sentence/completes their supervision and coordinates all measures in the client's sentence execution plan. The work of a probation officer consists of two equally important parts: both support and control. If a client fails to comply with their supervision, you as a probation officer must be able to address non-compliance in accordance with regulations. You need to be able to manage the complexity of working with both the support and control functions, which can be challenging. Qualifications We are looking for someone who is secure, stable, and has good self-awareness. You have a good understanding of how people acquire knowledge and adapt your way of conveying messages to the recipient's circumstances. In your professional practice, you have good judgment, strong collaboration skills, and the ability to work independently. We see that you understand your role and consider the benefit of the entire organization in your actions and decisions. You must also have a physical condition that enables you to act physically if the situation requires it. For us, it is important that you share the Swedish Prison and Probation Service's core values of a humane view of humanity, respect for the individual, and belief in people's willingness and ability to develop. You are also aware of and understand how background, culture, and group affiliation affect both you and others. Furthermore, through your approach, you are expected to contribute to ensuring that everyone is treated equally. We place great importance on personal suitability. We are looking for someone who has: An academic degree (minimum bachelor's level) in behavioral science, law, social work, criminology, or other social science discipline.
