Newport, Newport, United Kingdom Llamau Full time £18,000 - £25,000 per year

Role overview:

  • You'll act as a key worker to motivate and empower young people to gain independence and reach their full potential
  • You'll create support plans and help young people achieve their goals and independence, working collaboratively as part of a team who embrace differences
  • Further enhance your relationship building and partnership working skills, by promoting your services and working closely relevant local agencies such as the local authority, specialist charities, education and training providers, probation, social services, and housing provisions etc.

What do you need to be considered for this role?

  • The ability to engage and build strong relationships with people
  • A non-judgemental mindset and an understanding of the impacts of homelessness, substance misuse, family breakdown, domestic abuse, and trauma
  • A forward-thinking and resilient attitude, to overcome the barriers and setbacks you will face
  • A strong character who can remain calm and collected in challenging situations
  • Experience in support work or housing, with an understanding of housing options, housing law and basic benefits
  • A full UK driving license and access to a car

This vacancy is open to females only (Exempt under the Equality Act 2010, pursuant to schedule 9, Part 1).

Llamau is committed to supporting and promoting equality and diversity in all of its practices and activities. We aim to establish an inclusive environment and welcome diverse applications from the following protected characteristics: age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race (including colour, nationality, ethnic and national origin), religion or belief, sex, sexual orientation.

"We reserve the right to close this vacancy early if we receive sufficient applications for the role. Therefore, if you are interested, please submit your application as early as possible."

At Llamau we believe that no young person or vulnerable woman should ever have to experience homelessness. Our mission is to eradicate homelessness for young people and vulnerable women. But for thousands of the most vulnerable people in Wales, homelessness is a frightening reality.

30 years ago Llamau was founded to provide homeless teenagers with a safe place to stay. Since then, we have supported over 67,000 young people, women and their children who are either homeless or facing homelessness.

Many people think the job of a homelessness charity will be to provide accommodation - a safe place to stay. But it is very clear to us that for most people who are facing homelessness, their problems are far more complex than a lack of permanent shelter.

That's why we treat everyone who needs our support as an individual. We recognise their unique strengths and needs and make sure that they are supported to rebuild their futures.
