KKFO leader for the after-school institution at the School by the Sound

Do you want to lead a KKFO where strong communities, leisure-time pedagogy, and children's perspectives are at the core?

We are seeking a new leader for our KKFO, who wants to take responsibility for the continued development of our KKFO and be part of the overall leadership at Skolen ved Sundet.

We are looking for a leader who can be close to daily life while also having a view to the long term. A leader who employees experience as trust-building, clear and accessible, even when the task is difficult. And a leader who wants to be at the forefront of a skilled and engaged group of staff and, together with them, create even better conditions for the children.

A KKFO with strong communities

At Skolen ved Sundet the leisure-time part is an important part of the children's school life. Here there must be room for play, immersion, friendships, creativity, movement and simply being a child.

We work to ensure that all children feel part of the community, and we are focused on how our pedagogical practice can create participation opportunities for different children with different needs.

As KKFO leader you will become a central part of this work. You will, together with the staff, help develop the leisure-time pedagogical practice and create a daily life where children meet with present adults, clear boundaries and good opportunities to unfold themselves.

We believe that good leadership starts with good relationships. Therefore, you must be close to the staff, the children and daily practice – while also being able to look up and set direction.

You will become part of the school's overall management

As KKFO leader you will become part of the school's management team, where we collaborate to create good conditions for both children and staff. We work closely across school and KKFO, because we believe that children experience one coherent everyday life when the adults around them work in the same direction.

In the management team we place emphasis on openness, sparring and a relaxed work environment. We are curious about each other's perspectives, and we expect that you can bring yourself and your professional skills into play and be open to being challenged.

You will also have a close collaboration with the KKFO staff and with the school's other leaders and professional groups. It requires that you can move confidently between daily operations, pedagogical development and the many collaborative relationships that make a large school and KKFO function.

We are looking for you

We imagine that you have an educational background and a desire for leadership – and that you are motivated to make a difference close to children and staff.

You are a leader that staff want to come to. You can listen, ask questions and provide qualified sparring so that staff feel strengthened in their tasks. You can also make decisions, cut through when necessary, and at the same time hold on to the things that already work well.

You are reflective, curious and informal. You want professional development and you inspire others to be curious about their own practice. Perhaps you have experience with special education – that is an advantage, but most important is that you want to understand the needs of different children and help create participation opportunities for everyone.

In addition, you should like that leadership also involves operations. You have a flair for IT systems and administrative tasks, work systematically and in a structured way and follow up on tasks to the finish.

We do not expect you to know everything from day one. Instead, we expect you to want to learn, ask questions and develop together with us.

A daily life with both people, pedagogy and operations

As KKFO leader you will be responsible for the daily management and for the continued development of the KKFO. Among other things you will work with the leisure-time pedagogical strategy and practice, staff professional development and work environment, as well as daily coordination. You will also be responsible for finance, administration and operations.

An important part of the job is to create coherence between the KKFO's daily life and the school's other pedagogical work. Therefore, you should be keen to collaborate closely with teachers, educators, leaders and other professional groups.

We emphasize that you can work independently while also seeing the value of succeeding together with others.

What you get with us

You will become part of a workplace with dedicated staff, strong professionalism and a daily life where there is never a long way from idea to action. You will have the opportunity to influence the KKFO's further development and help shape the direction for an important part of the children's everyday life.

You will have colleagues in the school's management team who believe in sparring, collaboration and in becoming better when we share our perspectives. And you will have a workplace where we take our task seriously but also believe there should be room for humor, curiosity and a good laugh in everyday life.

Would you like to be our new KKFO leader?

If you can see yourself in a leadership role where relationships, professionalism, clarity and development go hand in hand, we would love to hear from you.
