Job Vacancy Pathway Director Integration

Your challenge

As Integration Program Director, you will make a real difference for newcomers in our municipality. You guide them step by step in their integration process, directing the entire process from introduction to completion. You switch smoothly between client, contracted and cooperating service providers and chain partners and know how to choose the right path for complex interests. Together you work towards sustainable participation and self-reliance.

• You gather information, weigh interests and, together with the integrator, draw up a pathway plan (PIP) that suits his or her situation and learning route.
• You place orders with contracted and cooperating service providers and monitor the progress of both client and performers.
• You conduct progress meetings, identify bottlenecks and take action - from making adjustments to imposing a measure or fine if necessary.
• You carefully record all progress, decisions and results achieved in digital files and coordinate with DUO and other involved parties.
