The IV Office of the Canton of Bern is undergoing change and is focusing on a modern corporate and leadership culture. We want to align our actions more closely with the needs of our customers and advance digitalization.

What you can achieve with us

• You take independent responsibility for advising and supporting the integration of young people – from registration to the completion of the integration process.
• You carefully analyze the initial situation and involve relevant professionals and institutions in case management, ensuring the flow of information.
• You assign integration-effective measures and use your scope of action purposefully.
• You plan, coordinate, and manage collaboration with external partners such as teachers, employers, institutions, coaches, medical professionals, and authorities.
• You support young people in the transition from school to vocational training – individually and practically, initiate integration measures, assign appropriate support instruments, and coordinate their implementation.
• You are a contact and trusted person for young people, parents, and involved parties – always empathetic and solution-oriented, actively promoting inter-institutional cooperation and influencing successful integration processes.

Which skills are important to us

• You have a tertiary education degree in social work, psychology, or a related field (e.g., HR, coaching, case management).
• You bring at least 3 years of professional experience in integration or counseling or, as a lateral entrant, at least 5 years of leadership experience in related fields.
• You know the education and school system in Switzerland, have a good sense for complex family situations, and bring corresponding sensitivity.
• You are strong in coordination, enjoy networking, think solution-oriented, and appreciate both independent work and team exchange.
• You enjoy working with young people and present yourself empathetically, clearly, and convincingly, able to advise and coach in a solution-oriented manner.
• You efficiently and structurally handle administrative tasks related to case management, appreciating both independent work and team exchange.
