About the job

Hørsholm Municipality is seeking a support contact person who wishes to help develop and strengthen the municipality's SKP area for children and young people aged 13-18. This is a developing area where you as an employee will play a central role in both professional development and the concrete work with the young people.

At the same time, Hørsholm Municipality is establishing a youth dormitory, a college-style offer with room for four youths who need close support in the transition to a more independent life. As a support contact person you will play an important role in this offer, where you will be attached to the youths as the ongoing point of contact and contribute to creating well-being, structure and development opportunities in their daily lives.

The work targets children and young people in vulnerable positions who need a stable adult contact and targeted, flexible support. The effort is based on the relationship and should support well-being, participation in communities and positive development.

You will join a close and committed collaboration across disciplines consisting of SSP, SKP, family therapists and integration efforts, as well as ongoing collaboration with Ungeløftet and Hørsholm Municipality's service delivery function in the adult area.

  • Dare to think creatively and find solutions where there are no fixed manuals
