About the job
Autismecenter Syddanmark – Bihuset Døgn seeks full-time pedagogues for our children/youths with autism.
Employment starting 1 December or as soon as possible.
We are looking for several pedagogues who can stay calm when the world becomes unsettled.
One who can be curious when the behaviour is difficult to understand.
One who takes responsibility for the relationship, the pedagogical task and the professional community.
At Bihuset Døgn, children and youths with autism live who need adults who can create calm, predictability and security – even when the day does not go as planned.
We are seeking a pedagogue who is curious about what lies behind the behaviour.
We believe that behaviour makes sense – even when we cannot immediately see the meaning. Therefore we are also curious about the framework around the child and our own way of being with it.
You will become an important adult for the children; as a pedagogue at Bihuset you will have a special responsibility as contact pedagogue for some of the children.
It requires that you take responsibility; you do not have to be the adult who can do everything, you must be an adult who takes responsibility.
We expect that you
- Are trained as a pedagogue or pedagogical assistant
- are curious about what lies behind the behaviour, and explore what the child is trying to tell
- Be curious that the framework is tailored to the individual child – to ensure predictability.
- take responsibility as contact pedagogue and follow the child’s well-being, development and pedagogical goals closely
- reflect on your own practice and are willing to change course when something does not work
- contribute to a positive, fun and informal collaborative culture
Professionalism and collaboration – both for the benefit of the child
We share observations, challenge each other’s perspectives and help each other become wiser about the individual child.
The aim is not that each of us is right. The aim is that together we become better at understanding the child.
And even though the task is serious, the collaboration can be easy. We would like colleagues who enjoy going to work, contribute to a good atmosphere and carry humor in daily life.
We take the task seriously – but we do not need to take ourselves too seriously.
What we offer
- 5 intro shifts, where you get the opportunity to get to know the children, the colleagues and daily life.
- A thorough onboarding process, which continues into the first months of your employment.
- Autism Center Southern Denmark’s autism basic training as a common professional foundation.
- Regular supervision and professional sparring.
- Opportunity for further education and relevant courses through Autism Center Southern Denmark’s course department.
- 8-week rotation and work every other weekend.
- Work on both day and evening shifts. Therefore you must be able to arrive early in the morning – we say good morning at Bihuset between 06:00/06:30.
- An workplace with room for humor, engagement and an informal tone.
The relationship and pedagogy are part of the child’s everyday life – every day.
Perhaps Bihuset is your next place?
If you would like to work in a place where your professionalism makes a difference, where you get a special responsibility for some children, and where you will be challenged in your understanding of autism, we would very much like to hear from you. A important adult who continues to be curious about what lies behind.
