If so, we have an incredible opportunity for you to join our team as an Multiple Disadvantages Specialist Workerat Solace Women’s Aid. You will be joining a team of committed and inspiring individuals whose dedication has saved the lives of thousands of women, men and children in the capital. We are looking for friendly and diligent individuals to join our services and help us make a difference. Our core values reflect our history and were developed in consultation with staff and service users. Feminism and intersectionality are key to our work and we are committed to the principles of being survivor‑led, trauma‑informed, empowering, diverse, anti‑racist and anti‑discriminatory. About the Service Ella House supports women facing multiple disadvantage experiences, intersectional problems including homelessness, substance misuse, contact with the criminal justice system and mental ill health. These women can fall through the gaps between services and systems, making it harder for them to address their challenges and lead fulfilling lives. At Ella house the goals are to support clients with multiple/complex needs, recognising the emotional and compound trauma that accompany and, in many cases, precede an individual becoming homeless. Ella House provides support through empowering women with independence, inclusion, peer support and wellbeing by bringing diverse expertise and approaches. The service delivers holistic support, where people are seen for their full combination of strengths, capacities and experiences. We recognise how women, as individuals, want to be supported to define and work towards their goals. This looks different for everyone and will require staff to be patient, observant, creative and committed to trying a range of approaches. About the Role Specialist Support Workers provide support services to women affected by multiple disadvantage, who have experienced domestic and /or sexual violence and who have mental ill health and/or use substances. You will ensure the smooth running of the refuge, including the processing and admission of new referrals, ensuring rent and personal charges are paid, rooms, general housekeeping and organising repairs and responding to crisis situations. You will work with women to devise a Support Plan that meets their immediate practical and emotional needs and start the process of recovery, linking women to more specialist support services where required. You will work in a trauma informed way and ideally have a background in supporting people with significant mental ill‑health and or substance use issues. About You The ideal candidate will have in-depth knowledge of multiple disvantages and its impact on women as well as having experience of providing emotional and practical support to clients struggling with homelessness, substance misuse, contact with the criminal justice system and mental ill health. You will have experience of managing risk and following case management procedures to meet the needs of the client group, and the ability to work with women to help them to understand their needs, risk assess, develop safety plan and support them in linking with other agencies. You will have a working knowledge of the available legal remedies, housing and welfare benefits, as well as experience of providing workshops. In addition to case management you will be required to undertake housing management responsibilities including health and safety and maintenance of the accommodation. You will have excellent administrative and time management skills. What we can offer you We provide a comprehensive benefits package to all our employees, including: Focus on learning and development (internal career progression and training) Generous holiday entitlement Employer pension contribution Family‑friendly leave and enhanced maternity pay Access to Inclusion Networks Daily clinical debriefing Employee Assistance Programme providing free 24/7 support and advice Employee Benefits Platform offering staff discounts, benefits and savings Flow & Restore yoga classes Meditation sessions Cycle to Work Scheme How to apply When applying for this role, kindly highlight in your Supporting Statement how your values, knowledge, transferrable skills, and experience align with each point within the following sections of the Job Profile Document: Knowledge, Experience and Skills Solace Women’s Aid values diversity, promotes equity, and challenges discrimination. We encourage and welcome applications from candidates of diverse cultures, abilities, perspectives, and lived experiences. We have policies and processes in place to ensure that all employees are offered an equal opportunity in recruitment and selection, promotion, training, pay, and benefits.
