About Tilioq

The disability advocacy institution Tilioq in Sisimiut is looking for a student assistant who wants to help develop and shape the disability sector based on the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities.

Would you like a meaningful student job where you make a difference for other people? Then you have the opportunity to become part of Tiliq's secretariat and, together with the secretariat, put the conditions for people with disabilities on the agenda.

We are a small workplace consisting of the disability spokesperson, a secretariat manager, 1 project employee, and 2 citizen advisors. We have a good collegial bond with high spirits and close collaboration across tasks, projects, and our different areas of expertise. Therefore, we also hope that you would like to be a part of the social community at the workplace.

You can expect a student job where you will work project-oriented and participate in our municipal course project, Ilimmarsaaneq, and create a network for both Tilioq and yourself, as well as engage in the coordination and implementation of rights.

At Tilioq, we often have multiple projects running simultaneously, and new tasks arise continuously in line with the political developments in the disability sector, so your tasks will also be very diverse. Because we are a small secretariat, you will also help shape the workplace and have a significant influence on the work we do and how we create development in the disability area.

Your primary work tasks will be:

• Participate in the planning and execution of Tilioq's municipal course project.
• Participate in the planning and execution of Tilioq's seminar and conference, which this year will take place in Ilulissat.
• Write text for press releases, brochures, reports, informational material.
• Contribute to conveying Tilioq's messages on social media.

You are interested in social and political work, and have an interest in rights advocacy.

You are used to working analytically, theoretically, and project-oriented, and you can work with larger amounts of data and material, and communicate it. You enjoy writing or creating content for social media.
