You'll get a varied, challenging, and very rewarding assignment where you get to use both your heart and mind to create safe environments for those we serve.\n\nDo you also want to work as a social worker in an organization that promotes development, employee well-being, and a positive work environment with great results? Then you're welcome to join us!\n\n4 position(s).\n\nWORK TASKS\nWe are seeking social workers for our two teams: Assessment and Placement.\n\nIf you're interested in a position in the assessment team, which takes over after the reception has made a preliminary assessment, the work continues with:\n\n\t\u2022 Assessment of children's needs and parents' capabilities.\n\t\u2022 Follow-up of assistance decisions.\n\t\u2022 Collaboration with schools, police, child and adolescent psychiatric services, and other actors around the child.\n\t\u2022 Customizing solutions for families.\n\nIn our placement team, which takes over after an assessment has been completed, you represent the child's interests and needs, ensure that the child has meaningful contact with their parents, and that the child is involved in their own care. You work toward reunification, parental involvement in care, and enabling them to receive the right support. This involves:\n\n\t\u2022 Following the care of placed children and youth based on their individual needs and rights\n\t\u2022 Considering and reconsidering care, making contact plans and contact assessments.\n\t\u2022 Close collaboration with foster care coordinators and cooperation with schools, police, child and adolescent psychiatric services, and other actors around the child.\n\nIf you thrive with shorter contacts, meeting deadlines, and can quickly adapt your work, the assessment team might be the right workplace for you. If you prefer, on the other hand, longer-term cases where you follow clients over time, the placement team is recommended. With good team cohesion and skills development, we lay the foundation for good work - We make a difference for the children!\n\nQUALIFICATIONS\nFor these positions, we're looking for someone educated as a social worker with a valid driver's license. Previous work experience from social services and authority administration for children and youth is a plus.\n\nYou need to be skilled at creating security and working alliances with those you meet, so families dare to be honest, and you need to develop a safe way of communicating difficult assessments and decisions yourself.\n\nThis is an assignment that gives a lot back but also sometimes takes a toll on your strength. You therefore need to have an inner acceptance of not always being able to do everything and a belief that small steps will pay off in the long run. You also need to take care of your own well-being and set boundaries for your commitment to be able to stay and be there for the children and youth over time.\n\nWhat can we offer you?\nFor us, you as an employee are our most important resource, and we care that you have a good balance between work and leisure. That's why we've introduced four trust days per year that can be taken as full or half days for recovery purposes. We also offer wellness benefits, flexibility, and the opportunity for vacation banking.\n\nAt work, the fruit basket is stocked and we have a shared Friday breakfast. From time to time, we arrange lunch workouts for better health and team cohesion. We have dedicated time for documentation on Wednesdays and method meetings every week with themes based on what the work team requests.\n\nAs support in your work, there are both senior social workers, a unit manager, and social administrators on site. We're also a work team that supports each other, laughs a lot, and helps out when days become unpredictable. Here it's natural to check with your colleague next to you before you go home wondering about something.\n\nBeyond the method meetings, each employee has the opportunity for continuous skills development through the Professional Journey program and other training based on both the organization's and the employee's needs.\n\nWe actively strive for an equal, equitable, and inclusive approach, and the organization has been LGBTQI+-certified since 2023 through Samkrafter.\n\nAbout the application\nWhen you submit your application, we want a CV showing your previous qualifications. You can skip the personal letter, but instead you'll answer some selection questions. We place great emphasis on personal qualities and good references. Before a job offer, we will request a criminal record check. Recruitment is ongoing, so don't delay with your application.\n\nA probationary period may be applied. You're warmly welcome to Lotsen!\n\nEmployment type: Permanent position.\nDuration: Start date: As soon as possible by agreement.\n\nMariestad is the city of the future with a clear direction\u2014we're growing! We're at the starting line for a very exciting journey with major initiatives in several areas. These developments will create great opportunities for the area and organization to grow and develop.\n\nDo you want to be part of creating dream conditions together? Welcome with your application and become part of our team as we shape the future Mariestad!\n\nWondering what there is to do and see when you're not working with us? Visit www.livetiskaraborg.se and discover all the possibilities that Skaraborg has to offer.\n\nIn this recruitment, we've decided where and how this position should be visible. We therefore firmly decline contact from external recruitment assistance.","language":"sv","is_translated":true,"title_original":"Socialsekreterare som vill g\u00f6ra skillnad f\u00f6r barn och unga","description_original":"Nu \u00e4r vi p\u00e5 g\u00e5ng och v\u00e4xlar upp!\n\nP\u00e5 Lotsen barn och unga i Mariestad satsar vi och s\u00f6ker ett\u00a0flertal tj\u00e4nster p\u00e5 utrednings- och placeringssidan!\n\nNu finns d\u00e4rf\u00f6r chansen f\u00f6r dig att kliva in i en viktig och meningsfull roll d\u00e4r du varje dag f\u00e5r vara med och p\u00e5verka tillvaron f\u00f6r barn som har det extra tufft.
