Help with finding work
Would you like to work, but are unsure about the possibilities? Or could you use some support in this area? We will look at your options and provide the right guidance so that you no longer need to rely on benefits.

WSP Parkstad and Bovengrondse Vocational School
WSP Parkstad is the municipal office in Heerlen that provides assistance in finding work. They offer personalized attention and guidance to help you find paid employment. During a personal interview, they first explore your options. If the interview reveals that you are immediately employable, WSP Parkstad will look for a suitable job for you.
Are you having a little trouble finding a suitable job, or do you lack the right work experience? In that case, they’ll see if, for example, a program at the Bovengrondse Vakschool is a possibility. Interested? Then take a look at the Bovengrondse Vakschool website at .
Personal contact
For a personal consultation, please contact WSP Parkstad: tel. 045-5666600. Have you registered for Social assistance benefit? If so, WSP Parkstad will contact you.
You can also receive WhatsApp messages from the municipality if you are receiving benefits. These messages provide you with information about job opportunities. The phone number we use to send messages is 045-5604200 and the sender is Gemeente Heerlen. As a job seeker, you can also use this number to send messages to the municipality.
