"I am too different to be otherwise, and I find that completely normal"
For the care and support of adults on the autism spectrum with intensive
support needs, we can offer a position as a Social Pedagogue / Care Specialist at 60% - 80% from November 2025 or by arrangement.
Five residents from very young to middle adulthood manage their daily lives with intense challenges that come with living with pronounced autism and additional cognitive impairment. They offer the chance to build trust in themselves and their environment and to discover their self-efficacy in a fulfilling way.
Together with two other colleagues per day, you will accompany them - from support with self-care, through kitchen, household to work in the garden and workshop. You work a lot in individually accompanied, methodically structured situations. The TEACCH
approach forms the methodological orientation.
The team shares the team leadership responsibility as a self-managing team.
With five other shared apartments, your group forms a small neighborhood settlement on the edge of the village of Mettleneggen near 3665 Wattenwil.
We offer:
An exciting and versatile job with many opportunities for co-creation
Exciting moments of accompaniment and various retreat options for breaks so that you can recharge even in stressful moments
Great, humorous, and committed team colleagues
Careful onboarding
Coordinated times for intensive individual support of the residents
Internal training with a focus on ASD
Free parking spaces
Remuneration and social benefits according to cantonal guidelines
Participation in a committed, qualified, and mindful team
Monthly team retreats with internal professional consultation
Full (undivided) day shifts without night watch/on-call duty
We expect:
Training as a social pedagogue or care specialist or equivalent
Qualification
Enjoyment of open and constructive collaboration
Willingness for specific pedagogical engagement
Knowledge in kitchen, household, and environmental work
Willingness for irregular working hours including evening and weekend shifts
Driver's license, category B desired
