About Haringey
Haringey is a fantastic place to live and work – the world in one borough. A place brimming with creativity, personality, radicalism, and community. It is a place where we stand up for each other. A place that is proudly distinctive. We’ll be celebrating all this and more as the “rebel borough” when we are the 2027 London Borough of Culture.
Our history champions change-makers and everyday rebels; revelling in our differences, battling discrimination, championing equality, and doing things our own way. Haringey’s people are a huge asset, with knowledge, expertise, and passion. Our staff members embody our organisational values: Caring, Creative, Courageous, Collaborative and Community-focused. These values keep us looking forward, ambitious for the future, and continuously striving to do our very best for all of our residents.
About the Role
We are seeking a passionate and dedicated Assessment & Move-On Worker to join our team at the Osborne Grove Assessment Centre. This role is central to supporting individuals who are rough sleeping, offering them accommodation, comprehensive assessments, and tailored support to help them transition into more stable living environments.
In this role, you will conduct thorough assessments to understand each person’s unique circumstances and create detailed action plans that address immediate needs and move them toward long-term housing solutions. You will provide expert advice on housing legislation, welfare benefits, and other relevant matters, actively pursuing appropriate move-on options within targeted timeframes. Your work will be varied, challenging, and deeply rewarding, as you play a crucial part in helping people navigate their way out of homelessness.
The role includes an additional enhancement to the base salary for working unsocial hours (evenings and weekends).
Working for Haringey
At Haringey Council we are committed to creating a workplace culture where all our people feel valued, included, and able to be their best at work, and we recognise the benefits of a diverse workforce so welcome applications from all ethnicities and communities so that we continue to make a difference to our residents and community.
Our benefits package includes a leave entitlement of 31 days + bank holidays, potential hybrid working opportunities, health and wellbeing support, a generous local government pension scheme and a range of discount schemes across leisure and culture that provide both financial and money-saving discounts.

We are looking for a candidate who is committed to making a real difference in the lives of individuals experiencing homelessness. You should be empathetic, resilient, and motivated, with the following qualifications and skills:
Experience: You have experience working with people experiencing homelessness, empowering them to make positive changes, and supporting them in achieving successful outcomes.
Knowledge: You have a solid understanding of homelessness-related issues, including housing legislation (Housing Act 1996, Mental Health Act 1983, Care Act 2014) and safeguarding processes.
Problem Solving: You are skilled at identifying move-on options and overcoming barriers to housing within targeted timeframes, using a creative and assertive approach.
Relationship Building: You can establish positive relationships with clients, colleagues, and external agencies, working collaboratively to deliver effective support.
Communication: You have strong verbal and written communication skills, able to convey key information clearly and persuasively.
IT Skills: You are confident using administrative and IT systems to keep accurate, up-to-date records of your work.
Flexibility: You are willing to work flexibly, including evenings, weekends, and public holidays, and adapt to changing organisational needs.
