Do you want to make a real difference in people's lives?
At Wäxthuset, we're not just looking for a new employee, but the right person who wants to become part of our small, family-like team.
We are a treatment home where community, responsibility, and commitment are central. Here we work closely with each other and our patients, with the goal of helping people get back to life.
About the Position
This is an all-around role where you become an important part of our daily operations. Your responsibilities will include:
Kitchen work two days a week
Evening on-call shift one weekday evening per week
Patient-centered work
Practical tasks such as driving and work on the grounds
The kitchen is the heart of the house, and here you don't just cook food—you work together with our patients and create structure, community, and participation.
Working on-call with us means you may meet people in difficult life situations, create security, and maintain structure even during challenging moments.
The position is flexible but we're thinking 80% weekdays/weekday evenings. Since the role is varied, you need to be able to prioritize and plan your tasks. Kitchen duties are shared with another person, and you'll need to be able to plan kitchen operations together with this colleague.
Who Are You?
We're looking for someone who:
Is engaged, driven, and takes responsibility
Enjoys working as part of a team but is also comfortable working independently
Has a genuine interest in people and wants to contribute to change
Is flexible and not afraid to take on varied tasks
You share our values, which are based on the 12-step program, and see people's potential for change. To fit this role, you need to be someone who lives as you teach. You're secure in yourself, have the ability to set boundaries, and are skilled at building relationships with the patient as your focus.
Requirements
2 years of post-secondary education with a focus on social work
5 years free from criminal records related to drug offenses
Class B driver's license for manual cars
If you have a personal history of addiction, at least 2 years of sobriety and ongoing recovery through the 12-step program
Meritorious
Kitchen work experience
Experience with stress-reducing methods such as yoga, meditation, and breathing techniques
What We Offer
With us you get:
Work in a small, close, and family-like team
A meaningful workday where you make a difference
A varied role with great responsibility and opportunity to influence
A workplace with clear structure and routines
A present manager and high competence in the team
Do you feel this is more than just a job and a context you want to be part of?
Then we'd love to hear from you.
Start date by agreement.
