Involvement Officer and you could soon be playing a vital role within a brand new project that aims to reach more people at risk of losing their homes and work with communities before they reach crisis point

About Shelter:

  • A home is a fundamental human need, as essential as education or healthcare. Yet millions of people across Britain struggle on a daily basis with homelessness, bad housing conditions, soaring rents, discrimination and the threat of eviction. So, we are striving for change, with individuals, in communities, across society, and leading the way to a safe home. We need ambitious, bestinclass individuals who are passionate about our cause to join us at this exciting time. This is your chance to play a part in the fundamental change we are striving to achieve.
  • At Shelter we are united by our purpose to defend the right to a safe home. Our enemy is the social injustice at the core of the escalating housing emergency. We believe that to win that fight, we must be representative of the people we are here to help and those who support our movement for change. In all our people decisions, we take pride in being inclusive, fair, equitable and transparent.
  • We have committed to combat racism both within and outside Shelter and welcome you on our journey to becoming a truly antiracist organisation.

About the Team:

  • We have launched a new 3year project with a leading UK Bank which aims to help more than 3,000 people at risk of losing their home during the cost of living crisis and build financial resilience in local communities to help prevent homelessness. Every day Shelter's frontline services hear from people who are really struggling and don't know how they're going to pay their rent or put food on their table. Our ambition is to do more to stop people from becoming homeless in the first place by working with them before they reach crisis point.

About the role:

  • As an Involvement Officer you'll deliver a programme of involvement activities with the aim of ensuring the views and experiences of individuals with lived experience of bad housing or homelessness informs all of Shelter's work. We'll also rely on you to deliver involvement activities across the organisation which will shape the ongoing design, delivery and governance of our work. People with lived experience will be involved in a range of ways too, including involvement groups, taking part in events within local communities, codesigning services and campaigns, sharing stories and speaking out about the housing emergency. The overriding aim is to work closely alongside people with lived experience to influence and steer the direction of Shelter's work, so that lived experience informs everything we do.
  • We are happy to talk about flexible working, personal growth, and to promote a workplace where you can be yourself and achieve success based only on your merit.

About you:

Benefits:

  • We offer a wide range of benefits, including 30 days of annual leave (pro rata), enhanced family friendly policies, pension and interest free travel loans. Our employees also have access to a tenancy deposit loan, payroll giving, cycle to work scheme and an employee assistance programme.
  • Shelter helps millions of people every year struggling with bad housing or homelessness through our advice, support and legal services. And we campaign to make sure that, one day, no one will have to turn to us for help. We're here so no one has to fight bad housing or homelessness on their own.

How to Apply:

  • We work together to achieve our shared purpose
  • We prioritise diversity and have an inclusive and open mindset
  • Safeguarding is everyone's business. Shelter is committed to protecting the health, wellbeing and human rights of those we support, and enabling them to live free from harm, abuse and neglect. All our staff will be expected to observe professional standards of behaviour and conduct their work in line with our Safeguarding Policies.
    Shelter does not accept unsolicited CVs from external recruitment agencies nor accept the fees associated with them.
