Rate of pay: £13.85 per hour

Contract Type: Casual / Relief

Location: Across London

Closing date: 10/08/2025

Our vision is to end street homelessness. At Thames Reach we are committed to helping homeless and vulnerable people to live in decent homes, build supportive relationships and lead fulfilling lives.

The role

This is an opportunity to gain a wide range of experience within the homeless sector, ranging from support work in hostels, supported housing, community support or day services, to assisting in the practical running of services, including cleaning and catering. Thames Reach welcomes applications from people with transferable skills

You may be asked to work across a variety of projects within Thames Reach, potentially to assist vulnerable people towards further independence; whether that be in obtaining employment, finding a home, or accessing the services they need, or in the practical day to day running of our services.

The hours and frequency of your work will vary. This is in response to the needs of our service users, the development of our services and changes in staffing. This position could therefore be ideal for you if you wish to work flexibly or if you have other commitments and want to have your work fit around these.

To be successful as a Sessional Support Worker you will:

  • Work with Lead Managers and Senior Practitioners to ensure that casework in the team is effectively delivered

  • Contribute to the improvement of service effectiveness, ensuring that service users or internal customers receive a high-quality outcome-focused service

  • Work in various locations to ensure Thames Reach's obligations to service-users are fulfilled

Thames Reach is committed to achieving a diverse workforce that reflects the communities we serve. We value, respect, and celebrate diversity. We welcome and encourage applicants from all sections of the community regardless of their history of homelessness, sex, race, disability, age, sexual orientation, or religious belief.

To apply, use the Apply Now button on our website to complete the application form. We hold interviews for Sessional Support Workers throughout the year.

Thames Reach is committed to safeguarding. Applicants must be willing to undergo pre-employment screening appropriate to the post, including, but not limited to checks with past employers and the Disclosure and Barring Service. Having a criminal record will not exclude you from applying but you will be asked to provide further details as most posts are considered exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974.
