Educational Specialist in Cycle 2 in Individual Setting (70%)

What you can achieve with us

Together with a motivated team consisting of educational specialists, you will support pupils on the autism spectrum, with cognitive impairments, as well as with self-injurious and aggressive behaviour intensively in their school day. You accompany the young people in a 1:1 setting and therefore do not work in a fixed class group. Regular exchange and consultations within the class team are planned.  

We are looking for a motivated and empathetic personality with training in social pedagogy. Ideally, you have already gained experience in dealing with people on the autism spectrum and with challenging and aggressive behaviours. You are characterised by an independent and reliable way of working and are physically and mentally very resilient. You enjoy contributing as part of a team. At the same time, you also like to work independently and sometimes on your own. You can approach the challenges associated with supporting the young people with the necessary professionalism and calmness.  

We are the Foundation for Blind and Visually Impaired Children and Young People Zollikofen - a private, politically and denominationally neutral organisation with a charitable purpose. Our task is to support and accompany people with special needs from birth to young adulthood.
We offer additional services to parents, teachers of public schools and special schools as well as to professionals. Our core competencies lie in the support and accompaniment of young people with visual impairment, blindness, multiple disabilities or from the autism spectrum.
