Are you passionate about supporting and transforming the lives of people who are experiencing homelessness in Hammersmith & Fulham?
About the role
We are looking for a Support Worker (known internally as Project Worker) to join the growing teams across The Hammersmith and Fulham Supported Accommodation Housing Pathway, particularly in our services for people with complex support needs.
You will be joining The Old Theatre, an award-winning 12-bed extra-complex needs service for multiply-excluded clients; this service is a female only project, and so is only suitable for female candidates, please.
Working in one of these roles, your key responsibilities will be to:
- Work with clients to identify their personal aims and ambitions and work towards achieving them.
- Provide practical and personal support to clients in an approachable, caring and person centred way.
- Work as part of a dedicated team to provide safe, high quality, positive and inclusive service to clients.
- Complete administrative records relating to client work, housing management and health and safety.
- Work on a weekly shift rota including early and late shifts, weekends and bank holidays.
About you
Above all we are looking for inspirational individuals who have a genuine desire to support people to transform their lives, and who will be committed to our Recovery Ethos. These roles will suit people with:
- An understanding of the issues faced by homeless or vulnerably housed people – you may have had personal experience of homelessness yourself.
- Experience of helping vulnerable people to identify personal goals and supporting them through a process of change.
- Good interpersonal and listening skills, to establish effective working relationships with clients.
- An enthusiasm to learn and work with clients with a holistic, person-centred approach.
