**Salary**: £22,249 per annum

**Hours**: 47 hours per week (Full Time) Support Assistants working a shift pattern including two night shifts (4.45pm-9.45am) and two day shifts (9.30am-5pm) per week.

This vacancy is open to females only (Exempt under the Equality Act 2010, pursuant to schedule 9, Part 1).

At Llamau we believe that no young person or vulnerable woman should ever have to experience homelessness. Our mission is to eradicate homelessness for young people and vulnerable women. But for thousands of the most vulnerable people in Wales, homelessness is a frightening reality.

30 years ago Llamau was founded to provide homeless teenagers with a safe place to stay. Since then, we have supported over 67,000 young people, women and their children who are either homeless or facing homelessness.

Many people think the job of a homelessness charity will be to provide accommodation - a safe place to stay. But it is very clear to us that for most people who are facing homelessness, their problems are far more complex than a lack of permanent shelter.

That's why we treat everyone who needs our support as an individual. We recognise their unique strengths and needs and make sure that they are supported to rebuild their futures.
