About the job

Would you like to be part of a committed work community where children's togetherness is in focus?

Vandkanten is seeking an engaged and professionally well-founded educator for a 37-hour week position from 1 December 2026 or as soon as possible thereafter.

In August we were allocated six basic places intended for children with special support needs. We work on dividing all children into smaller groups and are conscious and purposeful about which pedagogical approach we have for the entire child group.

About the job

We hope you have a high pedagogical professional level and a desire to help influence the development that is underway at Vandkanten, where the children's well-being, development and learning are at the center. Vandkanten is the children's place, and we emphasize creating a safe, fun and good everyday life.

What we can offer you

  • a rewarding work community, where there is focus on open and honest dialogue as well as constructive and positive feedback
  • a team consisting of 10 trained pedagogues, three pedagogical assistants and six pedagogical helpers
  • an attractive location in the new Sydhavn, close to the metro, Fisketorvet and Rådhuspladsen
  • two hours of preparation time per week for trained staff, so there is time to plan the pedagogical activities and work with e.g. action plans
  • opportunity to choose among a wide range of continuing education and participate in professional networks in the cluster
  • two annual pedagogical days – one in-house and one shared for Cluster G

Your tasks with us

We develop pedagogy and everyday life together, and you have the freedom to apply your competencies and make your pedagogical mark. We want to create a different everyday life and try out new initiatives. We do not have all the answers, and therefore we hope that you have plenty of initiative and a desire to try new things. With us, all employees are important actors in relation to both pedagogical quality and the work environment. Our focus points are presence for the children, language stimulation with the UGLe strategy, good and challenging learning environments as well as a good everyday structure.

About Vandkanten

Vandkanten is an integrated institution with three toddler groups and three kindergarten groups. We have 36 toddler children and 66 kindergarten children. Vandkanten is a day care center for children aged 0 to 6 years at Engholmene in the new Sydhavn.

Employment terms

Salary and employment terms according to applicable collective agreement and within the framework of local wage formation.

In connection with the employment we obtain child and criminal records certificates as well as references.
