AKO Social Educator

Atuarfik Inussuk is seeking an AKO Social Educator for a dynamic workplace where recognition, community, and development are core values. You will work with approximately 300 children in a new AKO, formed by merging two previous AKOs. We offer an exciting job with development opportunities and close collaboration with other educational staff.

Do you want to help create the best AKO with activity and safety? Are you interested in being part of a dynamic workplace where recognition, community, and development are core values?

Then we have the perfect job for you!

AKO and School

The leisure component is a large and important part of most primary school children's daily lives, and for us, it is important that the after-school program (AKO) is a safe place that allows for "free play" alongside planned activities and movement. You will become a social pedagogue for a new AKO with about 300 children divided into three groups of approximately 100 children each. The AKO is part of Atuarfik Inussuk and operates according to the same values as the school. The new AKO is a merger of the two AKOs Illu and Narsarmiutaq and will be located in the same physical premises as the school. An important goal for the AKO will therefore also be to create continuity for the children from the moment they arrive at school in the morning until they go home after the leisure component in the afternoon.

The AKO currently consists of around 37 educational staff members. Read more about Atuarfik Inussuk here:

A strong community

At Atuarfik Inussuk, we want a dynamic workplace where recognition, community, and development are core values. We emphasize a positive and appreciative approach to each other, where we all have a responsibility to create the best AKO, school, and workplace. We believe that a high level of ambition and well-being creates good conditions for learning and development, and therefore everyone's effort is significant - from cleaning staff, leaders, administration, and social workers to counselors, teachers, educators, and caretakers.

We can offer you:

An exciting job with opportunities to develop yourself as a social educator and as a person. You will have a unique chance to help shape and contribute to a completely new school and new AKO in development. As a social educator, you will receive the necessary support and training from colleagues and other management, so you can feel secure and well-prepared for the job.

·Who has a pedagogical education or another relevant educational background in pedagogy

Criminal and Child Certificate:

The position is covered by the law on the obligation to obtain criminal and child certificates. According to the law, employment can only begin once the municipality has received satisfactory criminal and child certificates. We would therefore like to point out that the start date can only be agreed upon once the municipality has received the child certificate from the National Police as well as the criminal record from the Police.

The child certificate is obtained by the municipality with the consent of the individual, while the criminal record is obtained by the individual from the Police.
