About the job
Our three houses Wäckerling, Brunisberg and Rosengarten are each led by their own Deputy Head of Nursing. Together, our nursing management forms a young leadership team, working closely together and representing each other.
We now want to strengthen this team with an additional leadership personality from Monday to Friday.
In this newly created role, you are not simply the classic deputy of a single Head of Nursing. You work across operations, support where your experience and leadership are needed, take on your own topics and projects, and actively shape the further development of our nursing care.
Our three houses offer an exceptionally diverse environment: from classic long-term care to dementia care and psychosocial and psychiatric living.

- Attractive allowances: Additional pay for night and weekend shifts
- Catering: Free breakfast/morning snack, free drinks and discounted meals
- Free parking at all three houses
- Health & community: Health offers, staff events and further benefits
- Additional extras: Service anniversary bonuses, referral bonuses and various discounts including fleet discounts
