Join us as our next Housing & Support Officer and make a difference!
Do you thrive on empowering others and supporting vulnerable individuals to live independently?
At Transform Housing & Support, we believe everyone should live independent and fulfilling lives. We provide housing and support for many socially excluded and vulnerable people across Surrey, parts of Berkshire, West Sussex, and the London Borough of Sutton.
Come and join the Reigate team and play a pivotal role in our incredible success stories, which have resulted in individuals with histories of substance abuse to find stability, secure jobs, and own homes. One of the teams proudest moments was helping a local woman reunite with her children after overcoming alcohol addiction.
