Are you a morning person? – newly created 30-hour-per-week position as an educator

We are seeking a morning-spirited and engaged pedagogue for our § 108 residential offer, where the target group is people with autism and developmental disabilities.

The most important task is that you, together with your colleagues, create the framework for a really lovely start to the day - and a meaningful and dignified life based on each resident's wishes, needs, resources and prerequisites.

Therefore, the content of your work day with us can also span wide.

One day you might be on a bike ride or a walk in the woods. Another day in the swimming pool or with riding. Or a trip to our own sensory house.

All shifts are from 07:00 – 12:30 or 07:00-15:00 – and there are no weekend shifts.

As a pedagogue with us you will become an important part of the citizens' daily life and development.

Your tasks will include, among other things

• To create and maintain safe, trusting and development-oriented relationships with the citizens.
• To support the citizens' self-determination, co-determination and quality of life.
• To work with individual pedagogical goals and sub-goals.
• To assist the citizens in daily activities and practical tasks.
• To work with structure, predictability and recognizability in everyday life.
• To observe, document and evaluate the pedagogical intervention.
• To collaborate across disciplines with colleagues, relatives and external partners.
• To actively contribute to professional reflection and development of our pedagogical practice.

•

Who are you?

We are not looking for a superhero – we are looking for a person who

• Is a trained pedagogue.
• Has interest in or experience with social-pedagogical work within the adult sector.
• Is present, patient and clear in your communication.
• Can work independently and at the same time be an active part of a team.
• Has an appreciative and respectful approach to people.
• Can remain calm and act professionally in challenging situations.
• Is reflective about your own practice and wants professional development.
• Sees documentation and professional reflection as a natural part of the job.

There are bonus points if you have both a solid caring nature and a big driving license for the dishwasher😊

Who are we?

We take our professionalism seriously – but we do not take ourselves too seriously.

• A meaningful workplace where relationships and professionalism are in focus.
• A varied everyday life with both professional challenges and good experiences.
• Dedicated colleagues with different professional competencies.
• Opportunity for professional sparring, reflection and competence development.
• A workplace where we value cooperation, well-being and the working environment highly.
• Opportunity to influence and develop the pedagogical practice.

We imagine that you

• Want to work with people
• Are responsible, calm and present
• Can create good relationships and meet people at eye level
• Thrive with structure and clear boundaries
• Are flexible and can take shifts when needed

It is an advantage if you have knowledge of autism or experience with pedagogical work, but it is absolutely not a requirement.
