About this role
Every day, around 1800 people go to work at Östhammar Municipality to deliver welfare and development so that our local community can continue to be safe and attractive. We do this together, with commitment, responsibility, and openness. We are proud of that.
Now you have the opportunity to work in a school focused on development, in addition to providing a learning and safe environment. We have a school developer in the municipality who invites new employees to appreciated introductory days, and the principal is present at the school, working closely with you. We operate according to an annual cycle called "Succeed Together," where you will benefit from clear municipal plans and routines. We offer you excellent opportunities for personal development in a stimulating and pleasant work environment—all within commuting distance to Uppsala.
JOB RESPONSIBILITIES
In addition to teaching, your responsibilities will also include planning and developing the operations together with your colleagues. Furthermore, it is your responsibility as a teacher to work to challenge and support each student in their learning. This is to create the best possible conditions for the students' future challenges and opportunities. Additionally, the position includes mentorship.
We offer you the opportunity for continuous professional development and networking combined with close collaboration with other educators and student health services.
QUALIFICATIONS
We are looking for a certified teacher with qualifications in Swedish/Social Studies as well as Mathematics/Natural Sciences, English, and Music. You should have good IT skills so that you can familiarize yourself with the systems we use daily. Knowledge of Unikum and Teams is an added advantage. We also consider previous experience working in schools as a merit.
There are several abilities we see as particularly important in our work, and we hope you recognize them in yourself. Collaborating with colleagues to create the best possible conditions for our students is one such ability. Building safe and trusting relationships is another—it is an asset for you in relation to your students as well as in your relationships with colleagues and guardians. A positive attitude and strong commitment also help to inspire and show students possibilities and solutions.
Have we piqued your interest? We certainly hope so; interviews are conducted on an ongoing basis, so do not wait to submit your application!
