Vacant job

AKG Sweden is looking for an engaged and creative Synpedagog (Vision Pedagogue)!

Our vision is to be a leading provider of services that support, strengthen, and motivate people to enter the workforce or pursue studies. As part of the AKG Group, AKG Sweden is in an exciting phase of development. After winning the tender for Professional Introduction for People with Visual Impairments, we are now looking for colleagues who have the competence, drive, and curiosity to deliver this excellent service together with us!

The Professional Introduction for People with Visual Impairments consists of various preparatory measures, divided into four steps over approximately 1–1.5 years. During this time, our participants will engage in individually suitable activities that help them achieve their goal of securing employment or participating in education that leads to work.

Your Profile

We are looking for someone who is self-motivated, driven, and engaged with other people. The target group is very broad, which places high demands on you and your colleagues to adapt content and structure of our activities at an individual level. Much of your work will focus on strengthening our participants' self-esteem, self-confidence, and motivation. Therefore, we consider it essential that you have experience interacting with people with visual impairments and are driven by engaging and helping others grow – without taking over their responsibilities. This is an important balance for us at AKG Sweden!

You are fundamentally positive and non-hierarchical, with good self-awareness regarding the conditions you need to thrive and succeed in your work. You enjoy testing different paths and methods, and you thrive both working independently and as part of a team.

The Role of Synpedagog (Vision Pedagogue)

In addition to educating, supporting, coaching, and motivating our participants, you always keep the goal in sight – with a clear mandate to find a suitable path for the individual that leads to work or studies. This places high demands on an individualized approach. The role also involves some administration and documentation in our own and the client's systems.

At AKG Sweden, we work in teams. In the role of Synpedagog, you are responsible, together with the local team and the Quality Manager, to ensure that through our internal processes we deliver a service we are proud of. You are a key person in the ongoing development work.

We value the qualities that diversity and gender balance bring to the business and therefore welcome applicants with different backgrounds and life experiences.
