Repost: We are still looking for social pedagogues at Ryttermarksvej – maybe you’re the one we’re missing?

Sometimes the right match takes a little longer than expected.

We had many good and qualified applicants when we last posted our vacancies. Thanks to all of you who showed interest in Ryttermarksvej.

We did not quite reach the target for recruitment, and therefore we now give the opportunity to even more people.

Social pedagogue for Ryttermarksvej – because the biggest progress often starts small

Social pedagogue for Ryttermarksvej – because the biggest progress often starts small

The biggest progress is not always the most visible.

Sometimes it is a smile where there was frustration before.

A citizen who for the first time dares to try something new.

A family that gets a breather and a little more energy for everyday life.

These are the moments that remind us why our work matters.

If that kind of progress gives you job satisfaction, we think you will feel at home at the Day-care Offer Ryttermarksvej.

We are looking for two social pedagogues for permanent positions in respectively 32 hours per week and one social pedagogue for a maternity-leave position – at 32 hours per week .

Here you will be part of a strong professional community

With us you become part of a small and dedicated staff group, where we help each other, spar with each other and believe that we succeed best together.

We offer respite care to home-dwelling youths and adults between 15 and 55 years with significant and long-term reduced physical and mental function. When the citizens are with us, we create a safe and meaningful stay based on the individual’s resources, wishes and needs – while also giving the relatives an important break.

We work in smaller teams where professional reflection, humor and helpfulness are a natural part of everyday life.

" The best thing about working at Ryttermarksvej is that we never stand alone. We help each other, spar with each other and together create a work environment with room for both laughter, professional reflections and development ."

" I am professionally motivated by a good flow in the work with the citizens. When one group has been handed on well, we take in a new one. It provides variation in daily life and keeps me professionally sharp."

A typical day at our place

No two days are alike – and that is part of what many of us love about it.

You welcome citizens who come to respite care and help create a daily life characterized by safety, structure and good experiences.

Maybe you plan an activity together. Maybe you cook dinner, take a trip into the local area or support a citizen in a situation that requires extra calm and presence.

You collaborate closely with relatives and relevant partners, document the pedagogical effort and spar with your colleagues about how we best support the individual citizen’s well-being, development and quality of life.

Professionalism is a part of everyday life

We work recovery-oriented with KRAP and Neuropedagogy as our shared professional foundation.

We base our approach on the citizens’ resources, hopes and wishes and continually develop our practice through reflection, supervision and knowledge sharing.

If you do not have a KRAP education, we offer it as part of your employment.

We hope you can see yourself here

We imagine that you

• are a trained social pedagogue.
• meet people with curiosity, respect and acknowledgment.
• thrive with both independent responsibility and close collaboration.
• want to develop your professionalism together with colleagues.
• see relatives as an important collaborator.
• can create structure and at the same time be flexible when daily life changes.
• document your work and use IT as a natural part of everyday life.
• have a driving license (an advantage, as we also use cars and minibuses).

Therefore we believe you will thrive with us

With us you get

• a small workplace with a strong collegial community.
• high professionalism with room for sparring and reflection.
• supervision and ongoing competence development.
• opportunity for KRAP education.
• influence on your professional development and your areas of responsibility.
• a workplace where trust, openness and integrity are demonstrated in everyday life.
