GUX Aasiaat is looking for 1 full-time advisor.

Nord Greenland Gymnasium in Aasiaat is Greenland's northernmost high school. The school is located on the edge of Disko Bay and accepts students from all over North Greenland. A large part of the school's students live in dormitories located right by the school, giving it a feel of being a boarding school - without being one entirely. At the start of the school year, there will be around 250 students, but the dropout rate is high, so by the end of the school year, there will be significantly fewer.

We want to strengthen the guidance of the students. Therefore, we are creating a new full-time advisor position.

It guides main areas:

• Processing the transition from primary school to GUX.
• Participation in various introductory events for 1st-year students.
• Personal conversations with students about well-being.
• Absence conversations
• Managing exam anxiety in students.
• Planning and execution of parent evenings and open house events.
• Planning and execution of advisor trips to the larger cities.
• Participation in team meetings related to grade assessment in November and March.
• Referral of students to the study counseling.
• Updating information in IT-Reg for new applicants.
• The conclusion of the induction and other conversations is uploaded to student cases in Lectio, so everyone in management and guidance is informed.
• Interpreter for other school staff in connection with conversations with students.
• Take inquiries from outside via phone and email and coordinate with other school consultants.

• Engaged colleagues
• Opportunity for independent tasks and responsibilities
• Opportunity to influence the content of the position
• Employee benefits such as access to loaning kayaks and skis

An unfurnished staff housing can be allocated for the position according to the applicable rules at any given time. Rent and deposit are paid according to the applicable rules for the allocated housing. The staff housing is linked to the employment relationship and must be vacated upon termination of the employment relationship.

Rent and housing standards may vary depending on the age of the property, ownership conditions, etc. There may be a waiting period for the allocation of permanent staff housing, which is why temporary accommodation may occur, including in smaller co-housing communities or hotel apartments, for which taxation applies.

Interested? – then contact the office by email gux-aasiaat@gux-aasiaat.gl or phone +299894900.

Application deadline July 29, 2026. Start date September 1, 2026, by further agreement.
