The service will work creatively and holistically to enable young people to move forward from lifestyles which were impacted by gangs and exploitation, and help them reach their full potential by identifying and reaching their aspirations, assisting them to move on successfully to appropriate independent living.

As a member of a multi-agency team, you will be responsible for ensuring the effective and safe management of the service on a day to day basis; including the safety and wellbeing of all clients, volunteers, visitors and staff in the service.

- Deliver one-to one and group support opportunities within their accommodation and in the local community aimed at increasing resilience in the clients we work with.
- Proactively partner with consortium colleagues, Lambeth and local agencies including statutory teams, to support the wellbeing of Depaul clients in accordance with data protection and information sharing protocols.

**What We Are Looking For - Person Specification**:

- An understanding and commitment to working in an assets-based way.
- Good level of experience of working with people who have experienced homelessness, poor mental health, substance use or have a history of living in care.
- Relevant life experience is desirable
- Experience of using Risk Assessments and Support Planning.
- Good level of experience of operating safeguarding requirements and procedures.
