With us, you will work in bright and modern facilities with 64 apartments spread over four floors. Here, there is a work environment that promotes both well-being and development – a rehabilitation-adapted gym, a cozy visiting room, and a green outdoor area for recovery and social interaction.

Your tasks

• Empathy, sensitivity, and a genuine commitment to people

You thrive in a role where you can take responsibility, collaborate, and contribute ideas that make a difference. With us, we value initiative, patience, and a good attitude in all situations.
