Bonn makes a career.

Guardian angel

Wherever help is needed.

Qualified social worker

Helping is not just a matter of course for you, it is your passion. Your greatest goal is to create positive living conditions for all citizens.

In a city with 330,000 inhabitants, this can sometimes be quite a challenge - especially when it comes to the well-being of children and young people. However, thanks to your solution-oriented approach and willingness to work, you are often not just an employee of the City of Bonn, but in many cases a true guardian angel.

Your areas of work are very varied and can sometimes go beyond the usual working hours in special crisis situations, but it is precisely this extraordinary commitment that makes your job special.

Because guardian angels always help when they are urgently needed.

Educational and counseling work

They advise families on general issues relating to the upbringing and development of young people and also offer help. Separation and divorce counseling is also one of your tasks, as well as counseling children and young people in emergency and conflict situations.


Conception, planning and organization

You develop pedagogical concepts, plan social activities and can also demonstrate your organizational skills in various structural activities. You will also have a good knowledge of relevant legislation.


Promotion and support of minors

In addition to general counseling for children and young people, you offer help for mentally disabled minors. But you also actively support young adults with problems.


Measures for the protection of minors

Unfortunately, it happens time and again that minors are exposed to dangerous situations. In cases of mistreatment and abuse of children and young people, you quickly take protective measures and may also be involved in proceedings before the family court.
