Experienced sickness benefit consultant sought for Copenhagen–North Zealand

Do you want to use your professional expertise to help sick-listed citizens back to work and at the same time become part of a strong employment-focused professional environment?

At Carelink Gruppen – Job & Trivsel we are looking for an experienced consultant who both understands sickness benefit legislation and can build a good and trustful relationship with the people you meet.

You will work closely with the citizens and help set direction, motivation and concrete steps towards the labor market. For us, a good effort is about professional quality, integrity and the ability to see opportunities – even when the path back to work isn’t straightforward.

You will become part of our sickness benefit team based in Copenhagen. Your work will primarily take place at the job centers in Copenhagen and North Zealand with whom we collaborate. You will be assigned to fixed or longer-term tasks rather than having to change workplace from day to day. Here you will work closely with citizens, municipal staff and your colleagues at Carelink.

• conduct follow-up conversations with sick-listed citizens
• work targeted with the citizen's path back to work or education
• create motivation and momentum through clear, respectful and acknowledging conversations
• collaborate closely with job centers and other relevant actors
• prepare rehabilitation plans, progression reports and other professional documentation
• help ensure a high level of professional quality and positive experiences for both citizens and partners.

We imagine that you

• are educated social worker, social facilitator or have another relevant education
• have at least three years of experience with citizen conversations within the employment area
• have solid experience with sickness benefit legislation and legislative follow-up conversations
• have worked as for example caseworker or job consultant in a job center or as a consultant with another actor
• are clear, empathetic and good at involving the citizen
• speak with people – not to them
• can combine requirements and legislation with motivation, opportunities and a respectful approach
• are strong in both oral and written communication
• have a driver's license and access to a car.

The most important for us is that you both have the necessary professional ballast and the desire to make a concrete difference for the people you work with.

With us you get

You will become part of an organization where there is a short path from idea to action, and where you get both responsibility and freedom in your work.

We offer, among other things

• a high degree of independence in planning your tasks
• close professional sparring with experienced colleagues and management
• exciting and professionally challenging tasks
• continuous professional and personal development
• Carelink's social-professional coaching program
• room for new ideas and the possibility to influence how we work
• good development and career opportunities in a large organization in growth
