About the job

In Horsens Municipality, we are looking for an engaged and professionally strong colleague for Skiftesporet

Skiftesporet is a service for citizens over 65 who want more social activity and well-being in life. It can be after illness, loss, relocation, loneliness or other life circumstances that have changed everyday life.

With the starting point in the individual person's lived life, resources, interests, values and wishes, we together find out what can make everyday life more meaningful. We do this through conversations and a coaching and acknowledging approach, where we are calm in the meeting with the citizen.

What you will do in Skiftesporet

You will have individual conversations and programs with citizens in their own homes, where you work with social rehabilitation, well-being and health promotion. Together with the citizen you explore possibilities for change. You support the citizen's motivation and coping and build a bridge to social communities and activities. You will also participate in group programs, outreach and presentations as well as collaboration with relevant internal and external actors.

We are looking for you, who

  • have a relevant health professional or pedagogical education
  • have experience with health pedagogy
  • have strong relational and communication skills
  • work in an acknowledging, listening and respectful manner with people in different life situations
  • can work very independently and in a structured way and have a flair for IT
  • are professionally curious and reflective and want to develop both yourself and Skiftesporet's offering.
  • have ideas, see opportunities and are willing to try something new – and keen to implement the ideas together with your colleague

An independent job with room to develop

You will become part of a two-person team, where you have great influence on your own everyday life and on the development of Skiftesporet. We work self-directed with flexibility and room to test new ideas.

At the same time, we are part of a larger professional community with the 6 preventive employees, where we meet for professional sparring, supervision and joint development – and of course also for the summer party, Christmas lunch, humor and good laughs. We have an office at Kildegade 23, 2nd floor.

The position is 25 hours per week with the possibility of an additional 7-10 hours per week as an activity worker in an open activity center.

A driver's license and the possibility to provide your own car is a condition for the position. Salary and terms of employment according to the applicable collective agreement and local salary formation.

If you would like to know more about the position, you are welcome to contact daily manager Heidi Buch Elleby at tel. 30 52 02 97 or colleague in Skiftesporet Tanja Christiansen at tel. 23 25 27 85 (best between 8-9).

Application deadline: Sunday the 15th of November 2026

Employment interviews: Thursday the 19th of November 2026

Start date: 1 January 2027

In Horsens Municipality we see diversity as a strength, and we therefore encourage all qualified to apply regardless of age, gender, religion, ethnic origin and disability.

We set salary and terms of employment according to the applicable collective agreement and relevant pre-arrangements on local salary formation within the individual professional area. You can see the salary level, including base pay and pension, in the municipalities' and regions' salary data office here .

The concrete salary depends on the position as well as your experience and qualifications and may, in addition to base pay, consist of relevant negotiated allowances.
