Make a Real Difference – Become a Support Worker! Are you someone who thrives on helping others unlock their potential? Do you believe everyone deserves the chance to live independently and with dignity? If so, we’d love to hear from you!

We’re on the lookout for a compassionate, proactive, and energetic Support Worker to join our team and deliver person-centred, strengths-based support to our residents.

You’ll manage a caseload of residents, guiding them through referrals, interviews, and assessments with empathy and professionalism. Once they join the service, you’ll be their key point of contact—welcoming them, building trust, and delivering tailored support through both one-to-one and group sessions. Every interaction will be focused on outcomes, empowerment, and helping people realise their full potential.

What you’ll bring:

• Experience working with vulnerable people, ideally with knowledge of homelessness and its effects.
• A solid understanding of housing and benefits advice.
• Confidence in working collaboratively with specialist agencies like mental health teams and youth services.
• A natural ability to build trust, motivate others, and foster meaningful relationships.
• Strong communication skills – you know how to adapt your approach to suit different people and situations.
