Cambridge, United Kingdom HAYS Full time
Support Worker (full-time) | Cambridge | Permanent | £25,000 per annum

Your new company
Our client is an international homeless charity, with over 400 services across 41 countries. The Cambridge service provides a home for up to 50 residents, all who have either experienced homelessness, or who have been at risk. As well as providing day-to-day support, the service also provides structure and purpose to residents, by giving them roles within the service's social enterprise.

Your new role
At any one time, you will be required to provide tailored support for 15 to 20 residents. All residents have had a variety of life experiences, and have faced different challenges. You will need to familiarise yourself with the residents, and be able to recognise changes in their behaviour. The work is varied, and you'll need to support with a number of aspects including:

  • Health matters and substance abuse recovery
  • Creating personal development plans
  • Securing external training and opportunities
  • Basic life skills including cooking, cleaning, and living a healthy lifestyle


What you'll need to succeed To be successful in this role, you must have experience supporting adults with a variety of challenging behaviours. You must also be able to demonstrate a good knowledge of adult safeguarding, and the challenges that can be faced when working in a residential setting.
All workers must hold a full clean driving licence. You will likely need to be able to drive to work, as the site is not covered by public transport. Free parking is provided.
A qualification in health and social care would be ideal, but is not essential. It is important that you have good English, Maths, and IT Skills.

What you'll get in return
As well as the annual salary, the organisation provides a number of benefits for workers, including:
  • Training and development
  • Daily cooked lunch and refreshments
  • Work mobile phone
  • Discounted AA cover
  • Staff discounts for the social enterprise
