The Child and Youth Welfare Center (kjz) is a counseling center for families, parents, adolescents, children, and toddlers and operates based on the Child and Youth Welfare Act of the Canton of Zurich.
We are looking for a social worker for our kjz team.
Belonging, Meaningfulness, and Competence
We are a well-coordinated team with a lot of expertise, humor, and creativity. We support each other, enjoy interdisciplinary work, and are committed to child protection.
Tasks
You advise and support children, adolescents, and parents within the framework of child protection measures in case management as well as on a voluntary basis. In addition, you conduct assessments in cases of suspected child welfare endangerment. Intensive collaboration with family systems, authorities, schools, as well as other institutions and specialist offices is important to us. Furthermore, your input and suggestions are requested for the further development of our kjz Horgen.

Administrative tasks as well as the preparation of reports and case notes come easily to you.
Benefits
We offer you a meaningful, versatile, and demanding activity in an exciting and interdisciplinary field of work. We will carefully train you because child protection means teamwork and support from management.
