About the job
Would you like to make a difference for citizens in an important life situation while becoming part of a strong professional community with high well-being, helpful colleagues and room for humor?
We are looking for an engaged social worker or social mediator for our Benefits Department. Here you will play a central role in supporting and guiding citizens in need of assistance under the Act on Active Social Policy and the Integration Act.
We are proud to have a department where we help each other, share knowledge and prioritize both professional quality and a good working environment. With us, the day starts with a good morning, the doors are open and sparring is a natural part of everyday life.
Like the rest of the country's job centers, we are in the process of adapting to the new employment reform. The biggest organizational changes have been implemented, but we continue to develop the new structure. Therefore we are looking for a colleague who thrives in an organization in development and who wants to contribute with professionalism, commitment and good ideas.

You will among other things
- Process, administer and pay out subsistence benefits as well as single benefits.
- Provide qualified advice and guidance to citizens so they can navigate the system and receive the help they are entitled to.
- Provide housing advice, including guidance in enforcement cases and referrals to crisis centers and shelters.
- Handle party hearings, make decisions and process appeal cases.
- Join our open advisory on-call scheme, where you meet citizens both in person and by telephone.

- Thrive with both administrative case processing and contact with citizens.
- Take responsibility for your tasks and contribute actively to professional sparring and development.
- Want to be part of a strong collegial community and contribute to the good atmosphere in the department.
Therefore you should choose us
With us you will become part of a well-functioning team of 16 dedicated colleagues, where high professionalism goes hand in hand with helpfulness, community and flexibility.
We offer
- A thorough and secure onboarding in both tasks and systems.
- Great independence in task solving combined with close sparring and support from colleagues.
- Weekly case meetings and a culture where we actively share knowledge and experiences.
- An work environment characterized by presence, informal humor and plenty of space.
- Close collaboration with, among others, the Job Center, Family and Health, Social Interventions and external partners.
- Flexible working hours and the possibility of home office after the first three months.
- An attractive canteen arrangement with a varied buffet.

In short, you get a workplace where professionalism, flexibility, well-being and community are highly prioritized, and where we lift tasks together.
