**Hours: Full time (37.5 hours per week) and Part Time (28 hrs per week, Tues/Thurs, Sat & Sun) hours available**

**Who we are**

Our Association was founded in 1966 by a group of local church groups in response to the desperate need in the local area for affordable rental housing. Christian Action has grown into a vital local provider of accommodation in four North London boroughs. We are a diverse, fun and friendly team whose mission is to provide high quality and affordable support and services to those in housing need.

We are proud to be a local landlord and business, connected to our local community. Across Enfield, Barnet, Haringey and Waltham Forest we provide affordable housing, managing around 1600 homes and we continue to strive to provide more much needed services. We run essential supported living accommodation and services for young people, helping them to achieve independent living and a bright future. We have a number of retirement schemes for older residents, offering peace of mind and an opportunity to remain independent and in their local community.

**Role Purpose**

Our support workers/youth coaches are an essential part of our Supported Housing team. They provide excellent service and support to young people aged 16-24 yrs. Through coaching, discussion and guidance they help the residents in our service to work towards independent living. Our youth coaches inspire young people to know that they matter, that they can reach their goals and be the best they can be.

**Core Responsibilities**

- Engaging young people in education, employment and training, referring to our engagement team when appropriate.
- Building excellent relationships with young people and all external professionals
- Develop, lead and support life skills workshops in partnership with the engagement team
- Supporting young people to adhere to house rules including challenging unacceptable behaviour and anti-social behaviour
- Contribute to the wider team and share examples of good practice
- Supporting young people to maintain their licence agreement and all areas of housing management such as paying rent and maintaining Universal Credit and Housing Benefit
- Creating a safe and secure environment for young people to live in, contributing to the smooth running of the building, reporting repairs and health and safety hazards.
- Maintain confidentiality of all sensitive information and data relating to clients in line with GDPR
- Work flexibly when needed to maintain sufficient levels of staff cover at all young people services
- Uphold our values working collaboratively with colleagues across the Association
- Demonstrate the Association commitment to building a diverse and inclusive organisation
- Any other duties that may be reasonably required

We are looking for creative and dynamic people to work with our young people to enable them to achieve their goals. If you have experience of working with young people, especially within a dispersed setting, assisting them to develop new skills and have a passion to help them succeed, then we would love to hear from you. This is challenging and rewarding work so we are looking for people with the drive to make a difference.

In return we offer our support workers/youth coaches:

- A supportive and friendly working environment with opportunities to develop new skills
- An annual salary of £25,140 (FTE, salary pro rated for part time roles)
- 25 days holiday plus bank holidays (pro rata for part time role)
- Great benefits including a health care cashback scheme and employee assistance programme, including free counselling and legal advice
