Social Pedagogical Employee 60-80% | St. Josef Stiftung

In our residential group at Haus am Rank, seven children and adolescents live with cognitive, multiple, and mental impairments as well as special behavioral issues. They are mobile and independent in many areas. It is precisely because of this that there is a lot of room for what constitutes social pedagogical work: shaping relationships, accompanying development, promoting independence, experiencing things together, and actively shaping everyday life.

You are not looking for a run-of-the-mill job. Working with our children and adolescents can be challenging, very challenging. There are many situations that demand patience, clarity, resilience, and professional action. In addition, there are irregular working hours and night on-call services. During these, you stay overnight at the residential group. The nights are usually quiet, but the children and adolescents know that someone is there for them at night as well if they need support.

Those who decide on exactly this, however, also receive something that many other jobs cannot offer: real relationships, responsibility, and the opportunity to make a very concrete impact in the everyday life of our society.

A creative, supportive team awaits you, which sticks together, masters challenges together, and celebrates successes. In addition, we offer a lot of variety in everyday life, exciting leisure activities, and unforgettable experiences.
