- Liaising with external support links to improve customers’ confidence, health and wellbeing and offer training and encouragement towards employment and education
- Handling occasional emergency situations
- Keeping accurate and high-quality written records

**Skills and experiences**:

- Experience of working with adults who have experienced homelessness
- Enthusiastic and flexible with a strong “can-do” attitude
- Ability to work as part of a team and on own initiative
- Strong organisational skills as well as functional literacy and numeracy
- Ability to react quickly to changing priorities whilst working to deadlines and targets
- NVQ3 in Health and Social Care, or willingness to work towards is essential

**Are you ready to be your best?**

Brilliant work deserves brilliant benefits As part of our commitment to making Sanctuary Supported Living a great place to work, here are just some of the ways we’ll reward you:

- At least 25 days paid holiday, rising to 30 days after 5 years’ service (plus public holidays) pro rata
