For the exciting and diverse field of duties of a disability officer, one should bring sensitivity, patience, and assertiveness. The officeholder has advisory tasks, issues recommendations, participates in meetings of advisory councils, committees, and the city council, acts as an interface between those affected, administration, city council, disability and welfare organizations, and ultimately sets impulses for the further development of disability policy. The duties also include the willingness to exchange ideas with other officers at the municipal level, as well as at the state and federal levels, organizing and participating in events, and contributing to planning in the areas of transport and infrastructure design (swimming pools, parking lots, sports facilities). Equally important are personal conversations with those affected and public relations work.
This position is voluntary. The city provides an expense allowance for attending meetings and offers a workplace within the administration.
It is desirable that applicants have a residence in Saarlouis. The selection is made by the city council. Applications should be submitted by Friday, December 13, 2024, to the office of Mayor Carsten Quirin by post at Grünebaumstraße 2, 66740 Saarlouis, or by email to sekretariatbm@saarlouis.de
