Caseworker - Young People (16-25 years)
1 week ago
Could you be a part time Caseworker - Young People for vulnerable young people aged between 16 to 25 years? Could you give them the support and guidance they need to get back on their feet and live independently?
The young people we work with have become homeless for a number of reasons – isolation or mental ill health, abusive relationships, substance misuse, involvement in gangs/county lines - their issues are complex so you will need to be able to build strong, trusting relationships so that our customers feel safe and supported.
We have a part time opportunity for a Caseworker - Young People , at our Ofsted registered scheme in St Albans which provides temporary housing for young people who are experiencing homelessness.
A bit about the role:
As apart time Caseworker - Young People, you will be working with a team of highly motivated, compassionate, and dedicated colleagues supporting a caseload of young customers with complex needs. You’ll need to meet each customer weekly to help them with their goals and discuss their progress. And, when someone’s ready to move on, we'll rely on you to help them access the housing register or look for suitable rented accommodation.
What we’re looking for:
You may have worked with vulnerable young people in a paid or voluntary capacity, maybe as a Youth Worker or in an education setting providing pastoral care. You’re a great relationship builder, who can create trust so that our young people feel comfortable sharing their issues with you, you listen but in a non-judgemental way and you are able to spot signs for concern and act on them.
You’ll also need to be able to work on your own, sometimes dealing with challenging situations and diffusing them to avoid escalation. Is this you?
Relationship building skills. Empathy Great listening skills Diplomacy and the ability to deal with challenging situations and diffuse them Non-judgmental Proactive and assertiveThis role will require an Enhanced DBS check.
It is essential that you can work more than 20 hours per week because the contract is for 20-day hours plus one sleep in per week (which amounts to up to an extra income of up to £3,842.28 per year on top of your annual salary).
Shifts are across 7 days per week, so includes weekends and bank holidays.
Rotas will be issued four weeks in advance and will include working between the hours of 8AM to 11PM, no more than 7.5 hours each day.
Sleep ins will start from 11PM.
Please note, we are not a UK licenced sponsor and any sponsorship with another employer is not valid for this role.
If appointed your job title will be Housing Support Worker.
