Committed and proactive employee sought for the welfare effort in Brøndby Municipality

Visitation and Intervention at Brøndby Employment Center seeks an engaged and proactive employee for the community service program.

Do you want to help create a meaningful work community and ensure that the community service makes a difference for both citizens and the municipality?

Brøndby Employment Center is seeking an engaged and proactive employee for the community service program, who wants to lead the daily task solving together with citizens and colleagues participating in the program.

We are looking for you who enjoy practical tasks, can create structure in daily life, and can meet people with clarity, respect and positive expectations.

About the community service program

In Brøndby Municipality, we work purposefully to support that unemployed citizens move closer to the labor market and become self-sufficient. The community service program is part of this task and is based on the principle that citizens receiving public support actively contribute through participation in societally useful tasks.

The target group is citizens from 18 years up to retirement age, who are not in work or education. Citizens have varied prerequisites and may need clear frameworks, structure and support to participate in a work community.

The community service program is based at Materielgården, from which citizens perform incidental work. Ongoing agreements are established for new tasks and placements around the municipality, so the program can offer different tasks that fit the municipality’s needs and seasonal opportunities.

The tasks must be societally useful and go beyond normal operations and the regular service and maintenance level. The community service program should create value for the municipality without replacing work normally carried out by regular employees.

For the program, there are attached business consultants who, among other things, work with job-preparation conversations, job-search plans, and establishing job openings. In addition, staff from Visitation and Intervention collaborate to support and facilitate the community service and the work tasks, so citizens receive a coherent effort with clear boundaries and expectations.

Your tasks

As a permanent employee in the community service program, you will play a central role in ensuring that the daily effort runs smoothly and that both citizens and tasks are followed through.

Your tasks will include, among others, to

• Plan, coordinate and distribute the daily tasks among the participating citizens.
• Introduce new citizens to the community service program, the tasks, and the expectations that come with participation.
• Ensure clear boundaries for attendance, participation, collaboration, and task completion.
• Be close to the citizens in daily life and support their active participation in the work community.
• Conduct motivating conversations with citizens focusing on their resources, possibilities and next steps toward employment, career change, or education.
• Support citizens in recognizing their own competencies and new perspectives on their opportunities to become part of the labor market and other meaningful communities.
• Follow up on attendance and participation and handle challenges when agreements are not met.
• Advise citizens in performing the tasks and ensure that the work is carried out safely.
• Plan and coordinate practical tasks at Materielgården and other workplaces in the municipality and in collaboration with colleagues from Visitation and Intervention.
• Enter into agreements and collaborate with relevant municipal units on new tasks and opportunities for the community service, and in collaboration with colleagues from visitation and intervention.
• Contribute to documentation and follow-up on citizens’ participation in the program.
• Collaborate with the business consultants and other colleagues on citizens’ progress and opportunities to move forward toward work or education.
• Contribute to the ongoing development of the community service program so that it functions appropriately for both citizens and the municipality.

You must be able to maintain an overview, prioritize tasks and handle a daily life where both citizens’ attendance, the nature of tasks and the municipality’s needs may change.

Collaboration about the citizens

The community service program is part of the overall employment-focused effort in Brøndby Municipality. It is therefore important that you can see the connection between the citizens’ participation in the work community and their possibilities to move toward jobs or education.

Your role is not only to coordinate tasks and ensure attendance. You must also be a motivating factor for the citizens participating in the community service program. Through dialogue, clear expectations and an appreciative approach, you should help citizens see their own resources, discover new possibilities and gain belief that they can take the next step toward the labor market.

It is about creating experiences of entering into a work community, feeling that you can contribute and seeing new perspectives for the future. You must be able to balance clear boundaries with a motivating and resource-oriented approach, where there is focus both on the citizen’s responsibility and on the opportunities that may open up.

You collaborate closely with the attached business consultants, who handle the job-oriented part of the program, including job-search plans and establishment of job openings. You will also be an important partner for colleagues and municipal units that contribute with relevant tasks.

This requires you to be able to build good collaboration relationships, communicate clearly and follow up on the agreements made.

Who are you?

We imagine that you

• Have practical experience and thrive with solving different types of tasks.

• Have an appreciative approach, but are persistent regarding agreements and attendance.
• Are good at collaborating and building relationships with citizens, colleagues and external partners.
• Work independently, take initiative and find solutions in a changing daily life.
• Focus on safety, responsibility and quality in task execution.

It is an advantage if you have experience with practical operations, coordination of tasks or work with citizens in the employment area. The most important thing, however, is that you want to combine practical work with a clear and respectful approach to people.
