Pedagogue Gelderland region

Child development and upbringing issues? That is what makes your heart beat faster. As a Regional Pedagogue, you are the connecting force between vision and practice. With your sharp eye, warm involvement, and organizational talent, you translate pedagogical insights into policy that lives. You inspire, coach, and take colleagues along in innovation, with an eye for every child and every professional. Together, you ensure a rich developmental environment in which children and colleagues grow.

This is who you are. By nature.

We stand for our pedagogical vision; children can develop to their full potential and be themselves with us. And you embrace that vision! You are known as someone who is decisive, can prioritize well, and knows how to translate our vision at all levels. Having your feet in the clay in combination with the ability to think transcendently, that is typical of you as a professional.

As a Regional Pedagogue, you are the pedagogical conscience of a number of locations in the Midden-Gelderland region. You follow social and pedagogical developments and, together with the national policy officers, translate these into powerful policy. Together with colleagues and the regional management, you develop and implement pedagogical policy, assess the execution, and adjust where necessary.

You support and advise location managers, lead a small team of pedagogical coaches, and help employees strengthen pedagogical quality. In doing so, you are a strong sparring partner regarding upbringing issues, also concerning children with specific support needs.

You guide change processes, coach colleagues, and create support for pedagogical innovation. In this way, you ensure that our policy is not only on paper, but truly comes to life in practice.

In short: you move smoothly between strategy and execution, inspire others, and contribute every day to the well-being and development of children and colleagues.

An enthusiastic and involved organization where you get all the space to share your love for pedagogy with managers and colleagues in the group. Lots of variety and room for growth. For yourself, colleagues, and the children. A dynamic working environment where you are valued for your expertise and enthusiasm and work together on the implementation, evaluation, and adjustment of our powerful pedagogical vision and policy. In the field of pedagogical quality, you support the regional director and location managers.
