JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

As an employment officer with us, you will work from a holistic perspective, supporting and motivating individuals on their path to work or studies. Together with an engaged team, you will implement employment initiatives both at the individual and group level, with the goal of creating sustainable and long-term solutions for each individual.

Your main responsibilities include:

• Conducting individual assessments and creating action plans with each individual.

• Leading lectures and group activities to prepare individuals for the job market.
• Establishing and maintaining relationships with both public and private employers to create opportunities for internships, work training, and employment.

If you have also worked as an assessor and have experience in following up and assessing an individual's progress through OCN validation as a method and tool, we consider it a significant advantage.

To thrive and succeed in this role, you are proactive, engaged, and results-oriented. As the work requires the ability to plan and be structured to achieve set goals, you need to have a high level of self-leadership and be able to initiate and carry out activities independently. You easily create and maintain relationships and communicate clearly and understandably with colleagues, participants, and employers. We are looking for someone who is outgoing and enjoys creating and developing contacts with employers to open opportunities for our participants to establish themselves in the job market.
