Our Brighton & Hove Services provide supported accommodation for 50 young people at risk of homelessness across two sites.

Our staff team comprises of Support Workers, Night Staff and Managers.

As a Supported Housing Support Worker you will hold a caseload of residents, working with them on a one-to-one basis with also facilitating group work sessions. You will identify their needs by listening to them, with employing psychologically informed approaches to enable residents to make better choices and take responsibility for their actions.

Our projects already have excellent working relationships with these services, and your role will build on these. You will be helping them to improve their practical living skills such as cleaning, budgeting, managing behaviour, seeking, and securing employment and making wise decisions. You will help to contribute to a great working environment, with a calm, yet assertive manner, being able to handle potentially difficult situations.

You will enjoy working in a client facing role, with the ability to self-motive to drive to deliver an outstanding service.
