Housing First is an innovative approach to supporting the most, excluded and hard to reach clients. It focuses on finding housing first; and then addressing the issues that have contributed to an individual’s homelessness.

The Oxford Housing First service aims to support hard to reach clients with complex needs; by sourcing independent tenancies and providing intensive support into long term accommodation.

- You will develop the skills to build and maintain effective relationships with local partner agencies to support clients throughout their recovery.

**About you**

We are always on the lookout for passionate people to join us who can work with a proactive and flexible approach. If you have a genuine desire to support people to transform their live you don’t need to have direct experience to succeed in these roles.
- If you have good communication skills, with the ability to network and build effective relationships with a variety of people, a good understanding of the complex issues faced by homeless people and the difficulties they experience in accessing services and an interest in developing skills and knowledge to support clients we encourage you to apply
- We will provide support and supervision to help you work independently and comfortably as a lone worker to support clients and effectively manage your own caseload.
