Team Manager for Coaches (M/F/X)

Pantar is the largest social enterprise in Amsterdam and Diemen. It is a vibrant and diverse organization that doesn’t view a disability as a limitation. At Pantar, you’ll find a job where you can make a real difference while continuing to develop your talents.  

A glimpse into the world of this role

As a team manager and coach, you will report directly to the Director of People & Development (P&D). Together with your fellow team managers, the team manager specialists, the Senior HR Advisor, and the Director of P&D, you will form the Management Team of the P&D department.

Within Pantar, M&O is responsible for designing effective work-based learning programs and for providing guidance and leadership to employees through coaches. This is achieved by organizing and overseeing the onboarding, placement, development, advancement, and transition of employees who work at Pantar through a wage subsidy program or a specific work-based learning program. This can take the form of transition to the regular labor market or, for employees who require a protected workplace, through sustainable employment and optimal talent development.

As a team manager and coach, you will lead your own team of coaches in a motivating and inspiring manner. The coaches are responsible for developing and carrying out employer-related tasks for employees working at Pantar who are receiving some form of wage subsidy or participating in a program. As a team manager, you will coordinate the team’s activities and ensure that the team’s goals are achieved.

In addition, you will actively contribute to fostering effective collaboration with colleagues from other departments, developing policies, and translating them into your own team and area of work, as well as ensuring the implementation of innovative methods in the field of learning and development.

An ordinary company with extraordinary employees. A vibrant and diverse organization that doesn’t see a disability as a limitation. That is our strength.

In this role, you will be most successful if you have...

You have excellent communication skills, give your employees the freedom and responsibility to do their work within clear guidelines, and lend a listening ear when they need it. You also contribute ideas on how to further improve and professionalize Pantar and are able to put these ideas into practice.

You also hold a relevant associate’s or bachelor’s degree or possess a comparable level of professional experience and analytical ability. You have extensive experience in a management role. You combine a high degree of independence and initiative with a warm and clear leadership style. And you are enthusiastic about an organization in transition, with all the challenges and dynamics that come with it. Naturally, you have an affinity with our target audience.

Who are we?

Working at Pantar means working at a regular company with extraordinary employees. At Pantar, we believe that everyone has value. It doesn’t matter what you believe in, how old you are, whether you have a disability, where you’re from, or who you’re attracted to. We’re primarily interested in how you can contribute to our goals.

Pantar is undergoing a transformation. We are striving to become a better, more future-proof organization, with the goal of providing even better support to help people who face barriers to employment find work. At Pantar, you work both within and for the community.
