About the job

Would you like to work somewhere where you have the possibility of a weekly home-based day and at the same time flexible working hours, so you can balance family and work life?

Then you should take a look here.

We are seeking 1 child and youth advisor for Team Together for Safety in the Centre for Children and Family in Kalundborg Municipality. Team Together for Safety and the Handicap Team belong under one department.

The team consists of 6 child and youth advisors, 1 professional coordinator and 1 department head. The team handles all work in cases relating to violence and abuse, including front-loaded child interviews as well as follow-up and investigations. We have a strong focus on involving the child and work, among other things, with the preparation of the child’s narrative.

We have a low case count, which allows for close follow-up and at the same time we are two in particularly complex cases.

We collaborate closely with a handful of fixed family therapists to create safety for the children and change in the families.

We are looking for a new colleague who will become part of a close multidisciplinary community, where we work with involvement of and focus on the children’s and families’ resources. We insist on working with high quality in the cases.

In the center we focus on coherence and relational capacity, so you will not only have colleagues in your own team and in the department, but across the entire authority area and the entire executing area. We all live door to door and work across and across so that we can continuously deliver a mono- and multidisciplinary holistic effort around the individual family.

Your profile

You are educated social worker/social educator and have a resource-oriented view of children. You must be able to work systematically and find the documentation work both interesting and necessary. Experience with authority work in the children and youth area, The Children’s Act, ICS and DUBU is an advantage. However, the most important is that you have a strong professional commitment, are curious and want to learn and develop together with us.

You should be able to see yourself as an authority practitioner and as a facilitator for change for the families. The role of child and adolescent advisor requires that you can work both independently and participate in close collaboration with your colleagues in the team, across the center and with external partners.

We place emphasis on you having an affirmative and solution-focused approach to the work, and that you are development-oriented. You must be curious and able to think creatively and unconventionally about solutions for the children and their families. As a child and youth advisor you must uncover and involve the child, the child’s family and the network. This requires you to both involve the families and also be able to insist on collaboration.

You must see the importance of your own role in contributing to a good psychological work environment, as this is highly valued by us.

Therefore, why you should choose us

  • We have high ambitions in our work for children and young people in exposed positions and know that it requires high well-being among employees to succeed. We therefore offer ongoing professional upskilling in line with the core task, an extended introduction program and other initiatives in the strive to create a workplace where everyone thrives.
  • We think in solutions where the child stays in the local area and in the general system, as long as it is developmental for the child.
  • We take pride in ensuring that the professional quality of our work is top and balanced with our financial framework.
  • Team Together for Safety is not covered by a flexible 4-day workweek, but there is a rotation that contributes to a high degree of flexibility.
  • You get a free health scheme.
  • We also offer home-working days and flex-time and we make extensive use of our travel time for phone calls, so that any long travel time does not make it impossible to become part of the team
