Vacant job

Do you want to be part of creating change together with a team that is passionate about helping children, young people, and adults in vulnerable and complex life situations? We offer housing and support to individuals who, for various reasons, need safety, structure, and professional treatment. Our operations include both sheltered housing, supported housing (both sheltered and non-sheltered) for young people, as well as family/emergency homes.

The operations are conducted under a permit from IVO in all areas. Our work is always based on the individual's needs, conditions, and life situation.

We primarily work with target groups such as

• Individuals in need of protection due to violence in close relationships
• Individuals in need of protection due to honor-related violence
• Individuals who cannot live at home due to conflict-filled or otherwise inadequate home conditions

Our goal is to create a trusting and motivating everyday life in a home-like and safe environment, with a care chain characterized by structure, continuity, and qualified staff. Here, there is room for the individual's experiences, feelings, and processes with the aim of strengthening the individual's self-esteem, independence, and trust in the future. We work to provide our residents with individualized tools and support in their development based on their age, background, and individual-specific needs. This may include receiving support to process difficult experiences, developing strategies for everyday life, and having the opportunity to explore their identity and resources. In close collaboration with each individual, we strive to create conditions for a safe and independent life with increased participation, decision-making rights, and the ability to make active choices for their own future.

The Role

The position involves work at our supported housing (working with young people aged 16-21), sheltered housing (adults and accompanying children), as well as support for family/emergency homes - i.e., all parts of our care chain. In the role of treatment educator, one bases their work on current routines and guidelines as well as the residents' individual needs and wishes to plan and implement interventions. The position is varied, and as a treatment educator, one is responsible in daily work for meeting and working with clients in a safe, stable, and professional manner. In the operations, we base our work on a pedagogical and low-arousal approach. Together with colleagues and the manager, you work to create meaningful and enriching days with a focus on building an independent everyday life even after the placement period. The tasks include, among other things, case management, client work, care and safety planning, contacts with authorities, and documentation. The work also includes everyday chores and activities that contribute to a safe, structured, and pleasant living environment, such as household chores. You support and guide in matters related to meals, exercise, cleaning, finances, leisure interests, school contact, and communication. The role also includes planning, following up, and documenting interventions based on applicable care and implementation plans.

We are looking for

Working with us places high demands on flexibility, communication, and good collaboration skills. We are looking for someone who is adaptable, has a low-arousal approach, and a good ability to handle stress.

To thrive in the role of treatment educator with us, we believe that you are communicative, attentive, and relationship-building with a well-established sense of security in yourself. You should be practically oriented and solution-focused, and when necessary, be able to set appropriate boundaries to create clarity and safety - but also be able to guide clients to do this themselves. You should enjoy working independently and have a great sense of personal responsibility in your daily work, but with close collaboration with the rest of the team. Having a structured working method and being able to make prioritization assessments is of great importance. Being flexible is an important part of the job as we work with authorities and with people where needs can change rapidly.

The position involves 5 shifts a week with flexible working hours. You will be involved in your scheduling but need to be able to work both day and evening shifts, as well as some weekends as needed.
