GUX Aasiaat seeks full-time advisor

The Nord Greenland Gymnasium in Aasiaat is Greenland's northernmost located gymnasium. The school is situated at 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 next to the school, giving the school a character 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 wish to strengthen the guidance of the students. Therefore, we are establishing a new full-time advisor position.

The main areas of guidance:

• Preparation for 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.
• Management of exam anxiety among 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 in connection with grading in November and March.
• Referral of students to study counseling.
• Updating information in the IT register for new applicants.
• Conclusions from integration and other conversations are uploaded to student cases in Lectio, so that everyone in management and guidance is informed.
• Interpreter for other school staff in connection with conversations with students.
• Handle inquiries from outside via phone and email and coordinate with other school consultants.

We offer

• Engaged colleagues
• Opportunity for independent tasks and responsibility
• Opportunity to influence the content of the position
• Employee benefits such as access to loan of kayak and skis

Salary - and employment conditions, including the right to relocation and moving expenses, in accordance with the agreement/collective agreement applicable at the time of commencement between the Government of Greenland and the relevant negotiating organization.

An unfurnished staff housing may be assigned to the position according to the rules in force at any time. Rent and deposit are paid according to the rules in force for the assigned 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 housing, ownership conditions, etc. There may be a waiting period for the assignment of permanent staff housing, which is why temporary accommodation may occur, including in smaller co-housing or hotel apartments, for which taxation applies.

Interested? – then contact Principal Dorthie Siegstad at email dorthie@gux-aasiaat.gl or phone +299 89 49 01.

Application deadline October 7, 2026. Start date December 1, 2026, by further agreement.
