Nice to have

  • Preferably experience in guiding people toward and in maintaining work, day activities, or learning activities

The role

As a case manager, you guide clients in finding and maintaining suitable work, day activities, or learning activities that align with their interests and abilities. You work with people where psychiatric issues and a forensic background intersect. Often, multiple problems exist simultaneously and the path toward a suitable daily routine is not straightforward. It requires patience, commitment, and perseverance to take steps forward together.

Together with the client, you investigate what possibilities exist and what is needed to find and maintain a suitable placement. From a recovery-oriented approach, you align with the client's wishes, goals, and abilities and stimulate self-management. You provide support in exploring workplaces, day activity options, and learning trajectories. You establish contact with relevant organizations and employers and guide the client throughout the entire process. Even when a trajectory goes differently than expected, you remain involved and think in terms of possibilities.

You work closely with colleagues from the multidisciplinary team, employers, schools, probation services, and other involved parties. You connect the various stakeholders and search for possibilities that align with the client. In this way, you contribute to sustainable participation, increased independence, and a perspective on recovery.

What awaits you

  • A substantive and challenging position at the intersection of psychiatry, forensic care, and social participation
  • Room for own initiative, working independently, and developing creative solutions
  • Varied contact with clients, employers, municipalities, and other collaborative partners
  • Collaboration with expert colleagues from various disciplines who share their knowledge and experience with one another
  • A team in which recovery-oriented working, professionalism, ownership, and development are important
  • Employment conditions in accordance with CAO GGZ, classification in FWG 50, min. € 3,560.00 - max. € 4,716.00 - based on full-time employment
  • A balance budget of € 1,000.00 per year with full-time employment
  • An employment contract for one year with a view to a permanent contract

About your future employer

We are there for the people who need us most. Annually, at twelve different locations spread throughout Friesland, we offer professional help to more than 12,000 people with severe psychiatric disorders. At home, in the outpatient clinic, day treatment, or during admission to the clinic. We are also there in case of crisis, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

With us, you can make a difference, and we actively commit ourselves to specialist recovery-oriented care close to the patient. You do not do this alone, but together. Together with your colleagues, with other organizations, but especially with the patient and his or her loved ones.
