1 month ago

London, Greater London, United Kingdom Single Homeless Project Full time

Do you have the commitment and resilience needed, to work with some of the most vulnerable people in our communities? If the answer is yes, please read on.

About the role:

As Specialist Project Worker Complex Needs, you will work creatively and collaboratively with women who have experienced VAWG. You will provide an effective high quality support service in an accommodation setting, working with clients facing Multiple Disadvantage, and living with complex needs as well as those with medium and low support needs. The role of complex needs project worker (Specialist Project) is a specialist role designed to understand the multiple disadvantages that victims of VAWG may face. As such you will understand gender informed practice and working with those who are victims of domestic violence and other gender-based violence. It is also essential that you understand the importance of best practice around those who have experienced multiple disadvantages by adopting a trauma informed approach in line with SHP's psychologically informed framework.

Gender-based and gender informed support will also need to be offered such as attending MARAC, using a multiagency approach and helping your clients to reduce harm in relation to VAWG. We aim to offer a holistic approach to case working and you will also be expected to engage your clients with activities within the hostel, ETE and mental health support from external agencies in order to help them to move towards independence.

SHP's aim is to improve outcomes for service users both within the service and by enhancing their ability to utilize external specialist, statutory and community services. The support you provide will ensure that clients are able to:

  • Access and sustain their accommodation within our services
  • Access and feel safe in engaging with specialist support in relation to their needs (i.e., substance use, health, mental health, complex trauma, offending, street activity}
  • Access primary health care, and improving their wellbeing and process of recovery.
  • Access work, training, and other opportunities,
  • Be supported by, and be active in, their community
  • Develop and maintain positive personal relationships

    You will be part of a dynamic team in a Respite setting, holding a caseload of clients with the opportunity to draw on specialist roles within the team, the organization more broadly, and working in tandem with specialist external agencies. Your ability to forge meaningful relationships will provide the basis of the work to empower your clients, helping them to engage with a range of community resources and build a robust network of support.

    About you:
    • Previous experience of working with female rough sleepers or people with complex mental health, physical health or substance use support needs.
    • An understanding of working with people using person-centred approaches and working collaboratively within a harm minimisation and recovery framework.
    • A flexible, innovative and creative approach to working with a sometimes hard to engage and challenging client group, is also required.

      About us:

      Single Homeless Project is a London-wide charity. Our vision is of a society where everyone has a place to call home and the chance to live a fulfilling life.

      We help single Londoners by preventing homelessness, providing support and accommodation, promoting wellbeing, enhancing opportunity, and being a voice for change.
