About the job

Do you want to empower children in their growth, accompany them and also make a difference and contribute yourself?

At Bachtelen, children, adolescents and young adults are at the centre – we accompany and support them with heart, mind and a pinch of humour. In teams strong both personally and professionally, we shape their everyday lives together and create spaces for development.
