We are looking for a personal assistant with experience working with children for our client, an active 9-year-old girl living in Huskvarna with her family. This is a rewarding job for someone who enjoys working with children.
**About the Position**
As a personal assistant, your workplace will be wherever the girl is, and you will spend your time both indoors and outdoors. During the day, the client attends school and does not have her assistants with her. Therefore, the working hours are after school, on weekends, and during school breaks. The client is a lively and cheerful girl who needs support in her communication using visual aids and sign language, so we prefer candidates with experience in this area. The girl enjoys swimming, so you must not be allergic to chlorine. She also likes being outdoors, playing in the park, going to the library, and taking the bus.
**Requirements**
We are looking for someone who enjoys working with children in a developmental way. We prefer candidates who are flexible and can easily adapt to different situations. You should be able to read others and integrate well while working in a family environment. The ideal candidate can discern when to take initiative and when to step back. We seek individuals with experience in personal assistance or other social work, as well as experience in low-arousal approaches. The most important factors will be your personal qualities and the chemistry between you, the girl, and her family.
Good knowledge of the Swedish language, both spoken and written, is required. To be considered for the position, you must be smoke-free and in good physical condition, as some tasks involve mobility.
**What We Offer**
We offer an exciting and varied job with good employment conditions, where you will make a difference for someone every day. Developing our staff's skills is part of ensuring the quality of personal assistance, which is why we provide several training opportunities each year for our employees. We want you to feel very comfortable and hope for a lasting collaboration with you.
