4 days ago

Kingamps Cross, United Kingdom CV-Library Full time

Single Homeless Project has an opportunity for a Specialist Health Lead to join our experienced and committed teams based in Kings Cross and Lewisham. You will join us on a full time, permanent basis and in return, you will receive a competitive salary starting at £32,325.00 and rising incrementally to £34,996.44 per annum.

Single Homeless Project is a London-wide charity. Our vision is of a society where everyone has a place to call home and the chance to live a fulfilling life.

We help single Londoners by preventing homelessness, providing support and accommodation, promoting wellbeing, enhancing opportunity, and being a voice for change. From supporting people in crisis to helping people take the final steps towards independence and employment, we make a difference to 10,000 lives every year across all 32 boroughs.

About the Specialist Health Lead role:

Our Health team has an exciting opportunity for three new roles to join the team. Two of these roles will be focused in our North London TST team, and one in our Lewisham hostel team with a focus on improving the barriers faced by those experiencing homelessness when accessing health care. 

As a Health Lead, your role will focus on developing and embedding SHPs health approach into the services the charity provides.  It will involve working with and supporting those living within our hostels who have underlying health needs to access and maintain the health care they need. To complete initial health screening tools, create a health support profile  plan for each client and to make referrals to and support them in engaging with the correct services  (i.e. dentistry, podiatry). In this role you will complete health mapping and use this information to influence partnerships formed with external services to help overcome barriers faced by those experiencing homelessness. 

The approach taken with clients will be psychologically informed, incorporating an understanding of Personality Disorder, complex trauma and addiction.  The outcomes for your role, include developing positive and sustained relationships of trust with clients, supporting them to engage in health care support and see an improvement in their overall physical health.   

About you:

To be successful, you will have:

A knowledge of (or willingness to learn) about common health issues and the barriers to health access that people experiencing homelessness may encounter.

Ability to find ways to engage and develop relationships with clients who may have a low level of interaction with and/or suspicion of services. 

Good understanding of local level health set up/services i.e. homeless health providers and teams. 

Confidence in working both as part of a team and independently. 

Skills and understanding of creating and monitoring support plans and record-keeping with regards to client support, safety and safeguarding issues. 

The ability to advocate for and coordinate access to health care for clients with multiple disadvantage.

Our attractive benefits package includes:

A salary increase after successfully completing six month's probationary period

A 37.5 hour working week including flexible working hours (core hours are 10am – 4pm) in non-accommodation services

25 days annual leave, increasing annually to the maximum 30 days (plus paid Bank Holidays),

A contributory pension scheme: Single Homeless Project will contribute the equivalent of 5% of your annual salary

Staff Health Cash Plan and discounts scheme

Comprehensive and integrated training programme designed specifically to develop the skills and knowledge involved in our work

Closing date: Sunday 13th October at midnight

Interview date: Wednesday 23rd and Thursday 24th October via Microsoft Teams
