Are you committed to supporting rough sleepers in finding their way back to stability? As a Reconnection Worker, you will play a vital role in helping individuals temporarily placed in the South-East London sub-region reconnect with their local area and access the services they need to resettle successfully.
The role involves working both independently and collaboratively as part of a team, ensuring the effective delivery of services tailored to each individual’s circumstances. You will manage your own caseload, providing practical support to empower clients to take the necessary steps toward resettlement. This includes conducting comprehensive assessments, co-creating progress plans, and facilitating reconnection by collaborating with other agencies and services.
Maintaining detailed and accurate records is a critical aspect of the role, ensuring confidentiality while tracking performance and outcomes. You will handle all related administration promptly, document financial transactions in line with policy, and share information appropriately to support the reconnection process.
Staying informed about housing legislation, welfare benefits, and safeguarding responsibilities is vital to ensuring your approach is both effective and compliant. Your role will also include safeguarding adults and adhering to statutory responsibilities.
Based at the 999 Club, you’ll work with a dynamic team dedicated to ending homelessness and making a tangible difference in people’s lives. If you’re passionate about empowering individuals and have the skills to navigate complex situations with compassion and professionalism, we want to hear from you.
In return we can offer the opportunity to work with a fantastic, inclusive, empowering and respectful team, making a difference to people’s lives.
The 999 Club is a dynamic local charity in Deptford working to end homelessness, one person at a time. If you share our desire to encourage people to take personal responsibility for making positive changes in their lives and you want to be part of a service providing opportunities, developing talents and helping to build confidence and self-esteem then come and work with us. This role is being advertised as part of a pilot scheme being run by the South East London Sub-Regional Rough Sleeping Coordinator.
