Re-advertisement - Educator sought for Children and Youth Home Nordkraft

Are you the type who would rather carry a football under your arm than sit behind a desk? Do you believe that strong relationships are created through shared experiences, activity and presence? Then you might be the person we are looking for to join our team at Nordkraft.

We are primarily looking for the right person. A pedagogical education is an advantage, but experience, personality and other relevant competences can be at least as valuable. As part of the team around six placed-out youths aged 12-18 you will have an active role in creating well-being, relationships and development. We are seeking an adult who not only wants to support the youths, but also wants to participate in activities, play and movement with them and help create an active daily life.

Movement as a path to development

At Nordkraft we deliberately work to create a daily life where the youths have positive experiences. Many of our youths need support to get started, find motivation and experience joy.

We are looking for a pedagogue who wants to be a playing partner rather than a spectator. This can be through activities in the house, e.g., board games, pool, foosball or in the garden, where we have a bonfire, football, volleyball and other games. We have bicycles available and live close to the fjord, Lille Vildmose and fields around us. Activities can also include cooking, baking cakes, making beads, drawing/painting or experiences outside the home.

You do not need to be an elite performer in any form of sport, cooking or creative activities. The most important is that you have energy, engagement and a desire to participate yourself and to be the driving force to make it happen.

A small Children and Youth Home with strong relationships

Nordkraft is normed to six youths, which allows for working closely with each individual. We believe development occurs through secure relationships, clear adults and a daily life with presence. You can read more about the target group on our website.
