Are you the person we're looking for as a new colleague in the Adult Authority for Disability and Social Psychiatry?

Do you want to use your experience to create real change for citizens with complex needs – and at the same time become part of a strong, humorous and professionally ambitious department? Then it might be you we are looking for.

We are seeking an experienced and professionally strong social worker for the specialized adult area from 1 November 2026 or as soon as possible thereafter. Here you will have a daily life where complexity, authority-based practice and cross-disciplinary collaboration go hand in hand – and where you get the opportunity to make clear marks on both the citizens' lives and our shared practice.

What do you dream of?

• A job where your experience is used – and valued
• A professional environment where sparring, courage and curiosity are part of everyday life
• To work in an authority function where quality and compliance with the law are in the centre
• To contribute to development, innovation and strong solutions based on the municipality's NASA values

If you can see yourself in several of these, then read on – we would love to hear from you.

Your tasks

You will be responsible for a broad and exciting portfolio, where you both work independently and in close collaboration with colleagues and partners:

• § 96 Citizen‑driven Personal Assistance (BPA) If you have experience, this is a clear advantage. If you want to develop yourself, you will be supported with training. The tasks are complex and require strong professional judgments, structure and overview.
• Case processing and decisions under the Service Act sections 84, 85, 98, 103, 104, 107 and 108. You work with citizens who have extensive and composite needs – and you become an important actor in ensuring the right intervention at the right time.
• Adult assessments (VUM 2.0) and § 141 action plans
• Transition collaboration at 16/17-year meetings
• Advice and guidance to citizens and relatives
• Interdisciplinary meetings and collaboration with internal and external actors
• Ad‑hoc tasks that support the department's development and quality.

We are looking for you who…

• Are a trained social worker – and preferably have experience from adult authority
• Have an interest in the specialized area and thrive with complex problems
• Have a strong sense of structure and can prioritise in a daily life that is never the same
• Are independent, but at the same time a team player who actively contributes to the community
• Are financially responsible and can balance professionalism and economy
• Thrive in the authority role and can stand clearly in dialogue with citizens and partners
• Communicate clearly – both orally and in writing
• Contributes to a healthy working environment and values a social and inclusive colleague community
• Perhaps you know KMD Nexus – otherwise you’ll learn it quickly
• Have a valid driver's license.

We offer

• A professionally strong, ambitious and humorous team
• Close leadership, weekly team meetings and ongoing sparring
• External supervision and mentoring scheme for a secure start
• A workplace with focus on both professional and personal development
• Company cars available
• A culture where we help each other – and where there is room for both laughter and professional depth
