Carlisle, United Kingdom Riverside Full time

Want to make a real difference to the lives of people? For over 90 years, The Riverside Group has been providing affordable housing across the UK to people as well as care for the elderly and support for those who face homelessness.

**This is a full-time permanent contract.**

**The difference you’ll make**
You’ll be working from one of our supported housing services and in this role you’ll work with a wide variety of young people from different backgrounds. At any one time you’ll be working with up to 5 young people. Your role will be to support a number of different people and help our customers to progress their lives and goals supporting them in a variety of ways, for example, linking them in with employability coaches and other support agencies, helping them manage their money, signing up for benefits or to move on to a more permanent home.

It’ll be your job to empower them and to boost their confidence while supporting them on their journey. Through all of this you’ll need to keep records of everything, so there is some admin to do.

**So, who are you?**
At times this role is tough but most of the time it can be incredibly rewarding. You will need to be resilient, empathetic and able to leave your work at work and not take it home with you. As a minimum requirement you’ll need experience of working with vulnerable people. Ideally you’ll also have an understanding of supporting vulnerable people - this could include having your own lived experience of homelessness or drug or alcohol addiction.

You will be required to work flexible hours to meet customer and business needs, which may not include normal office hours and may include Lone Working.

**Enjoy th**e reward**s**
Working with us, you’ll enjoy competitive pay, 28 days holidays plus bank holidays, a wide range of benefits, flexible working and the chance to learn valuable new skills. We empower our people to do great work by investing in learning, personal development and technology.
If you’re the kind of person that wants to do a really great job and make a difference to our customers, we think you’ll love it here. Sound like a challenge you’d like to take on? Then get in touch and let’s talk about how you can help us transform lives and revitalise neighbourhoods.

We encourage applicants from all sections of the community so that we can truly reflect the neighbourhoods in which we work.
