We are in the process of establishing Nordsjællands Krisecenter in new, physical premises in Hundested, and you therefore have a very special opportunity to be involved from the beginning and influence everyday life, the community and the framework we create for women and children.

At Nordsjællands Krisecenter we have room for 18 women and their accompanying children. Behind every stay is a person seeking security, calm and the possibility to start anew.

Care and support are provided according to the individual woman’s and child’s needs and situation, and social, pedagogical, psychological, legal and financial support and assistance can be initiated.

As an hourly-paid employee at Nordsjællands Krisecenter you must possess good relational and humane competencies and be able to work independently.

You will become part of an existing employee corps that covers shifts, both day, evening and night, on weekends and during holidays.

About us

Nordsjællands Krisecenter is a secure 24-hour facility under SL § 109, offering temporary protected accommodation to women and their accompanying children who have experienced violence, threats of violence or a similar crisis in close relationships. The crisis center has 18 places and is located in scenic surroundings.

During the stay, care and support are provided in relation to the individual woman’s or family’s situation and needs, and a holistic approach is coordinated with internal and external actors.

Empowerment is a fundamental aspect of our daily work, and a key value is to respect the women’s choices, norms and value system – and let these guide each person’s process during their stay. We work in an appreciative and resource-oriented manner with a focus on supporting a developing process, where through conversations, support and guidance, resources, freedom of action and possibilities are strengthened.

Our work is built on five strong core values: respect, inclusion, well-being, community and professionalism. With us, values are not just words but something we actively translate into everyday life – in the contact with residents, in collaboration with each other and in our professional approach.
