Nuuk International Primary School is seeking a pedagogical support person for a girl in 5th grade.

We are looking for a committed, structured, and professionally strong support person for a happy and social girl in 5th grade.

The position is for 26 hours per week and primarily involves academic support in the school part. The girl needs an adult who can work purposefully and intensively on her academic development and help strengthen her basic skills.

You will become an important part of the school's community and collaborate closely with both the class teachers and the girl's parents. Your collaboration with children, parents, and colleagues is based on the school's four values: education, ambition, community, and trust.

We are looking for you who:

  • Sees opportunities and can think creatively in working with professional content.
  • Can create calm, structure, and predictability in everyday life.
  • Can establish clear frameworks while also being flexible when needed.

  • A weekday with fixed frameworks and the opportunity for professional immersion.
  • Support from engaged parents
  • A strong collegial community and support from the school's management
  • A workplace focused on both professional and personal development.

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 when 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 certificate 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.

Salary and employment conditions:

Salary and employment conditions are in accordance with the applicable agreement between the Government of Greenland, in accordance with the agreement/collective agreement in force at the time of appointment between the Government of Greenland and the relevant negotiating organization.

The employment will be subject to a 3-month probation period.
