What we are looking for in you

YMCA Dulverton Group is in search of a passionate individual to join the Highbridge Housing team as an Accommodation & Support Enabler. This pivotal role centres on engaging with residents, employing an asset-based approach to actively foster positive development. We welcome applicants who may be looking to explore flexible working options such as compressed hours or part time hours.

We are seeking a self-motivated team player with a flexible mindset, ready to adapt to new challenges. If you understand the complexities faced by individuals who have experienced homelessness, this role invites you to encourage and enable everyone we support to become empowered by providing opportunities for progressive change.

As an Accommodation & Support Enabler, you'll excel in maintaining precise records of support for a dedicated case load, offering guidance on all facets of independent living. Additionally, you'll oversee individual rent accounts, supporting residents in budgeting to ensure the sustainability of successful tenancies. If you're ready to make a real impact and facilitate transformative change, we look forward to receiving your application.

Whilst there are systems in place to support you, a substantial part of the role includes the ability to lone work. Therefore, we require someone competent and confident when working alone and somebody who is able to understand and work with complex and challenging behaviours, appropriately.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all our children and young people. We follow a safer recruitment process, all appointments are subject to an Enhanced DBS check and are required to provide two suitable references.
