Plymouth, United Kingdom LiveWest Full time

**About The Role**:
We have an exciting opportunity for 3 Relief Support Workers to join our Support team at our **Plymouth** Foyer, our supported accommodation for young people aged 16-25.

We take a strength-based approach at the Plymouth Foyer, where we encourage young people experiencing homelessness to aim high, dream big and fulfil their ambitions.

You will be providing key worker support to our young people. Working through support and action plans, updating risk assessments and risk management plans with them, for them to develop the life skills necessary to move on and live independently in the community.

One of the great things about this role is being able to bring your own personality. Our young people come from a wide range of backgrounds, and we try to mirror that in our staff team.

Shifts can include 8am-4pm, 10am to 6pm and 12.30 to 8.30pm and includes weekend working on an ad hoc basis to cover annual leave and sickness absence. You will be part of a multidisciplinary team on site supporting the young people. The roles include some element of lone working, but only for short periods of time.

This is being offered on a **relief **contract basis, working flexibly to include days and weekends as and when cover is required.

To be considered for the role of Relief Support worker, you will be/have:

- An ability to engage with a range of young people.
- A tenacity in seeking the best outcomes for young people.
- A good understanding of young people’s needs, safeguarding and emotional and mental health issues.
- An understanding of support needs and support planning.
- Understand risk assessing and risk management.
- Innovative and creative in your ways of working.
- Resilient and flexible in dealing with others.
- Able to work under pressure and meet deadlines.
- Confident in lone working and be a good team player.

If you are able to work flexibly, and have the above experience, we would love to hear from you.
