  • Having difficult conversations with the people you support; being open and honest about the challenges and putting a plan in place together about what to do next.
  • Knowledge of the housing system and experience of working with people who may struggle with their mental wellbeing, substance use or staying out of prison.
  • Variety day to day where you will be able to plan your diary when needed and recognise what’s important to the people you support.
  • Sign-ups and re-lets of tenancies in your area

The qualities we’re looking for:

  • A positive, enthusiastic attitude and a sense of curiosity and imagination.
  • Someone who enjoys working in a fast paced close-knit housing team which is supportive of each other and happy to get stuck in.
