- Working closely with external agencies, including mental health, substance misuse, and social care services
- Completing risk assessments, safeguarding, and case records
- Supporting residents with housing, benefits, budgeting, and move-on plans
We're looking for someone with:
- Experience working in homelessness, supported housing, or a similar environment
- Knowledge of complex needs, mental health, and substance misuse
- Experience creating and managing support plans
- Strong safeguarding, risk management, and multi-agency working skills
