Do you want to help make a difference for young people who are struggling?

We are not looking for someone who can tell us what we usually do. We are looking for someone who, together with us, can explore how we can do it even better.

At Nødebogård Treatment Home we are seeking a professionally strong and systematic coordinator who can contribute with new perspectives and help strengthen the coherence between our treatment decisions and the pedagogical practice. We are looking for you who have preferably worked at a treatment home before, and have experience in creating structure, maintaining professional processes and translating knowledge and decisions into concrete actions.

You are curious about existing practice, dare to question what we usually do, and at the same time understand that lasting changes are created through collaboration, professional respect and clear follow-up.
