About Haringey
Haringey is a fantastic place to live and work – the world in one borough. A place brimming with creativity, personality, radicalism, and community. It is a place where we stand up for each other. A place that is proudly distinctive. We’ll be celebrating all this and more as the “rebel borough” when we are the 2027 London Borough of Culture.
Our history champions change-makers and everyday rebels; revelling in our differences, battling discrimination, championing equality, and doing things our own way. Haringey’s people are a huge asset, with knowledge, expertise, and passion. Our staff members embody our organisational values: Caring, Creative, Courageous, Collaborative and Community-focused. These values keep us looking forward, ambitious for the future, and continuously striving to do our very best for all of our residents.
About The Role
Are you passionate about ending the cycle of homelessness and ensuring vulnerable individuals transition safely into sustainable homes? We are looking for a dedicated Move-on Coordinator to join our specialist multi-disciplinary team at the Osborne Grove Assessment Centre. This is a pivotal role within our Rough Sleeping Programme, where you will take the lead on the move-on process once resident assessments are complete.
You Won’t Just Be Managing a List; You Will Be The Driving Force Behind Successful Transitions. Your Day-to-day Will Involve
- Leading Coordination: Taking full responsibility for move-on activity, ensuring plans are agreed upon and progressed swiftly.
- Building Partnerships: Acting as the central link between internal teams, Adult Social Care, and external partners like Supported Housing Pathway Managers and private landlords.
- Unblocking Barriers: Identifying and resolving hurdles in complex cases to ensure no resident is delayed in moving toward independence.
- Collaborate with Assessment and Move-On Workers to meticulously review client cases and communicate suitable housing transitions.
- Specialist Support: Navigating the complexities of the Homelessness Reduction Act and the Care Act to secure the best outcomes for single homeless adults.
We are seeking candidates who not only have the necessary skills and experience but are also deeply committed to our mission of supporting those in need. Your ability to drive results, coupled with a compassionate approach, will be critical to our success.
We need someone with a “can-do” attitude who thrives in a fast-paced, multi-agency environment. If you have a strong background in housing pathways and the organizational skills to track outcomes accurately, we want to hear from you.
About The Team
You will be joining a dedicated and diverse multi-disciplinary team at the Osborne Grove Assessment Centre, a key component of our wider Rough Sleeping Programme. Our team is committed to providing high-quality support and clear pathways for individuals transitioning away from street homelessness.
As the Move-On Coordinator, you will work at the heart of a supportive internal structure that includes our Service Manager, Deputy Manager, Case Coordinator, and a frontline team of Assessment and Move-On Workers. We pride ourselves on a collaborative culture where information is shared effectively to ensure the best outcomes for our resident.
About You
- Experience in coordinating move-on activity from assessment centres or supported accommodation into long-term housing
- Experience working with single homeless adults and people who have been affected by rough sleeping.
- The ability to work effectively with Adult Social Care, housing pathway managers, and private rented sector (PRS) partners to unblock barriers for our residents.
- Strong organizational skills with a keen eye for detail, particularly when it comes to tracking progress and maintaining high-quality case records.
- Exceptional interpersonal skills, with the ability to lead multi-agency meetings and communicate clearly with a wide range of agencies.
- Some experience supporting individuals with No Recourse to Public Funds (NRPF) or other immigration-related housing restrictions
- A good understanding of welfare benefits, housing-related financial support, and PRS incentive schemes.
