We work from an overarching recovery- and resource-oriented approach, where the focus is on possibilities rather than limitations. We meet the citizen with trust, recognition and respect, but also focus on strengthening the individual's independence and responsibility.

We also work with LA2 and TBT.

We are seeking employees who have a natural “drive,” who thrive with continuous changes with high work intensity, and who at the same time have an ambition to contribute to the citizens achieving the best strategies to master their own life.

• From time to time you will be challenged on your professional skills, personality and creativity.

We want you to

• Have a pedagogical or health care education or possess learned competencies.
• Have experience with the target group.
• Be able to see possibilities rather than limitations.
• Enjoy working both independently and in team collaboration. In addition, you must be able to work across the organisation.
• Like working with structure, clarity and recognizability.
• Familiarity with LA2 and TBT would be an advantage.
• Be good at expressing yourself in writing and speech and not least listening to both the spoken word and the pause and the person.
• Signal calm and manage to keep a cool head in pressured situations.
• Have natural trust and be able to accommodate the individual citizen.
• Be loyal and relationship-building.
• Be flexible and able to think outside the box.
• Be able to work alone as well as in teams.
• Be able to work shift hours including 12-hour shifts as well as every 3rd or every 4th weekend.

Here we will assess

• Have good situational awareness and the ability to balance between patience and consistency.
• Be a good colleague.
• Possess mental resilience – know your own boundaries, strengths and weaknesses.
