2 social pedagogues for the Værestederne in Frederikshavn Municipality

Are you keen to use your social-pedagogical professional skills in a drop-in center where relationships, community and presence are an important part of everyday life? Then maybe you are the one we are looking for.

About the Day Centers

The day centers in Frederikshavn Municipality are § 79-day centers under Day Centers and Special Interventions in the Center for Disability and Psychiatry. We have four centers spread across premises in Sæby, Frederikshavn and Skagen.

The day centers are open and walk-in offerings where people can come as they are. Here there is room for a cup of coffee, a chat, activities and community – but also for the days when you just need to be in a place where you feel welcome.

We meet people with various social and mental health challenges. Therefore our approach is characterized by respect, curiosity, equality and clarity.

We are looking for you who

• are educated as a social pedagogue and preferably have experience from psychiatry, the social sector, vulnerable groups or the day-center area
• are strong in relationship work and meet people with warmth, respect and equality
• can work independently and take responsibility for both daily operations and the professional work
• can create calm and overview – even when situations become challenging
• are keen to initiate activities and support communities together with the citizens
• can collaborate and contribute actively to a good collegial working environment
• are curious about your own practice and want professional sparring and development.

We place emphasis on your ability to translate your social-pedagogical expertise into a everyday life where the relationship and the good meeting with the citizen are the starting point.

A workplace in development

The day centers are a workplace in development.

We are working to strengthen collaboration across our offerings and create a clearer common professional direction.

We focus on stability, quality and ongoing development always with a view to both the citizens' needs, resources and opportunities for participation.

Therefore we also seek colleagues who want to contribute to more than day-to-day operations and who see value in helping to develop our shared practice.

You step into a workplace where development is already underway and where there is also room for you to help set the direction.

We offer

With us you get

• a workplace with a focus on calm, security and decency
• a strong professional and collegial community
• opportunity for involvement and to bring your ideas and competences into play
• a varied everyday life with both relationship work, professional and organizational tasks
• opportunity to help develop our shared practice
• colleagues with different professional backgrounds who together create meaningful communities and citizen-facing initiatives.

You will become part of the Day Centers and Special Interventions, which consist of several offerings across Frederikshavn Municipality. We work to create more cohesive, flexible and citizen-centered interventions, where we take into account the individual citizen's needs and the resources they themselves bring.

Does this sound like you?

If you can see yourself in a daily life where you use your social-pedagogical expertise, your judgment and your humanity – and where you want to help develop both the professional practice and the community – we would love to hear from you.

The positions are 37 hours per week.

Start date: December 1, 2026 or as soon as possible

Application deadline: October 19

Interviews: October 27
