  • Work closely with guests and providers across housing, mental health, and substance misuse to support a move in and sustainability of accommodation.
  • Provide motivational support to guests across dispersed housing, including Turning Point's new supported accommodation, to help them sustain engagement with health or other professionals and encourage them to maintain their ongoing treatment and recovery paths.
  • Collate and coordinate key information about guests with multi-agency providers across mental health and substance misuse and act quickly to advocate or coordinate multi-agency rapid interventions to prevent impulsive actions leading to harmful situations and potential breakdown of support and threat to housing stability.

  • Level 3 award in Understanding Substance Misuse, as well as training in mental health and trauma-informed approaches.
  • Extensive history or knowledge of working with homelessness and rough sleeping.
  • Motivated to empower people who often don't have the opportunity for their voice to be heard and be able to demonstrate passion, energy, enthusiasm, and empathy.
  • Resourceful and innovative in your approach to working with individuals experiencing homelessness and confident and resilient, with the ability to work with and lead on aspects of the service development.
  • Experience of coordinating multi-agency approaches as well as experience in mobilising rapid multi-agency interventions to prevent breakdown.
  • Good written and verbal communication skills and knowledge of IT and digital systems.
