We are delighted that you are interested in working with SOS Children's Villages. It shows us that you appreciate our work and that you actively want to support us in what we do. The children at our facilities grow up in an environment that is in keeping with their own culture. Positions at particular SOS Children's Villages are therefore exclusively allocated by national SOS Children's Villages Associations, which coordinate the work of all the SOS Children's Villages in their countries. The national associations employ people locally. In this way, we support local labour markets and give opportunities to people in the countries where SOS Children's Villages is present.
We guarantee long-term commitment and support for children. Our children have suffered greatly and need a long time to trust their new family. If they constantly had different carers, this long process would be harder for them. This is why we do not consider it to be wise to employ people on a short-term basis. This applies to all positions, particularly for employment as an SOS mother.

in your country. Our colleagues there will be happy to tell you about any employment or internship opportunities.
