We are looking for someone with excellent communication and interpersonal skills, as well as the ability to work effectively in a team. You will also need to have a strong understanding of homelessness services and the ability to apply your knowledge in a practical setting.

We are committed to providing a supportive and inclusive work environment, and we are looking for someone who shares our values and is passionate about making a difference in the lives of others.

Other benefits of this role include:

  • A competitive salary dependent on experience
  • A reduced caseload of around 10 cases per week
