IV Coach / Psychologist 60% - 80%

Location Zurich

You are the key to the success of our clients on their way back into the working world!

FAU – Focus Work Environment has a clear mission: We accompany people with health challenges individually and purposefully so that they can manage to re-enter the primary labour market. Our goal is to enable them, through tailored coaching and targeted promotion of their performance capacity, to develop new professional perspectives. The individual needs are central. Referrals are made by our partners, the cantonal IV offices.

As an experienced specialist, you accompany our clients in the process of professional reintegration. You are the pivotal point between clients, IV offices and the support system.

What you bring

You are exactly right with us if you bring the following:

• Solid education and expertise: You have a university or university of applied sciences degree in psychology with clinical experience as well as an additional qualification in (job) coaching and/or therapeutic further training.
• Experience in labour market integration: You bring solid coaching and counselling experience and are well acquainted with social insurances as well as the mechanisms of labour market integration.
• Empathy and boundaries: You are comfortable dealing with people in complex life situations. You are resilient, solution-oriented and know how to set clear boundaries in counselling and coordinate the different needs.
• Organisational talent and precision: Your working style is independent and exact. You have a flair for case-related administration and structured reporting.
• Digital competence & network: You are confident in using digital tools, know the Swiss labour market well and enjoy active networking.

Your tasks

• Individual reintegration: You jointly design the path to rebuilding performance capacity with the clients and accompany them in personal and professional development tasks.
• Coaching in the application process: You actively support job searching and prepare participants specifically for re-entry.
• Interface management: You maintain close contact with the IV offices, employers and the wider support system throughout the entire process.
• Administration and reporting: You are responsible for seamless documentation and reporting of reintegration progress.
• Further development and projects: You actively contribute your know-how, keep up to date through further training (and participate in internal projects for organisational development).

What we offer you

Look forward to a role that challenges and inspires you:

• Variety and purpose: A varied and very independent role at the interface of coaching, adult education and the labour market. It never gets boring here!
• Team and culture: Working in a small, committed and humorous team under the umbrella of a national, innovative non-profit organisation. We pull together!
• Support and development: We support you through group supervision as well as diverse further training opportunities.
• Room for creativity: Your ideas are welcome with us, and you can really make a difference.
• Contemporary employment conditions: This also includes a working environment that promotes your initiative and is easily accessible on foot (5 minutes from Zurich-Wiedikon station).
