Determine your own working hours, earn a fixed monthly salary, and make a difference for the elderly every day - at an organization where you are truly seen!

At Vecht en IJssel, we work on a small scale: everyone knows each other, the lines are short, and the atmosphere is informal. That means you make a direct impact, can share ideas, and truly do your work with pleasure.

What does this mean for you?

  • You choose a control employment contract (regie-arbeidsovereenkomst) at Vecht en IJssel.
  • You decide yourself how many hours per year you want to work and when you work these hours.
  • You receive a fixed salary every month according to the CAO VVT.
  • You get holiday allowance (8%) in May, a year-end bonus (8.33%) in November, and holiday hours.
  • Staying home due to illness? No problem, you simply retain your salary.

What does your schedule look like?

You decide that entirely yourself! The only agreement: working the agreed number of hours on an annual basis, without violating the Working Hours Act.

  • Five shifts a week and the whole summer off? No problem!
  • Only weekday day shifts? No problem!
  • 6 night shifts in a row and then 21 days off? That is also possible!

At Vecht en IJssel you work flexibly, with freedom and security, in a warm and small-scale environment where your efforts are truly appreciated.

Who are you?

  • You are a true healthcare hero with a heart for the elderly.
  • You have a diploma as a Verzorgende IG or Helpende Plus.
  • You like variety, enjoy working independently, and find it pleasant to be part of a warm, small-scale organization where everyone knows each other.

About Vecht en IJssel

At Vecht en IJssel we believe that the elderly want to remain meaningful, be seen, belong, and live as they are used to. Our four locations in Utrecht and IJsselstein form lively neighborhoods where people know each other, care for each other, and where everyone matters. We are a small-scale organization with four locations, three of which are in Utrecht and one in IJsselstein: Lieven de Key, Zuylenstede, Transwijk, and Ewoud. Each location has its own character and specialization, but everywhere we work with short lines, personal attention, and committed teams. As a colleague, you get plenty of space to shape your work independently and develop yourself both professionally and personally. We consciously invest in job satisfaction and vitality, because we know that healthy and happy colleagues make the difference in the lives of our residents. Together we are committed to an environment in which the elderly lead their lives (as normally and independently as possible) and in which you as a colleague can do your work with energy and satisfaction. We move with the times and developments in elderly care. We focus on living at home longer, innovation, and strong communities. This is how we build a future-proof organization together.

Good to know before applying

Utrecht is a vibrant student city with excellent public transport, making Vecht en IJssel's locations (Lieven de Key, Zuylenstede, and Transwijk) easily accessible by bike or bus. Since this role requires a specific Dutch qualification (Verzorgende IG or Helpende Plus) and involves direct care for Dutch-speaking elderly residents, students must carefully verify they meet these strict certification and language requirements before applying. The flexible scheduling tool is perfect for balancing shifts around university lectures at Utrecht University or HU.
