About Emerging Futures CIC
Emerging Futures works nationally with people affected by addiction, encouraging them to make positive changes to their lives.
We believe that no one should suffer the stigma associated with addiction, and that everyone seeking support should feel valued and respected.
We provide homes for people to connect with others and make the necessary changes to move towards independent, healthy living.
Our behaviour change services provide a confidential space to share experiences, and offer practical support to those who want to change.
The Emerging Futures accredited coach training develops the skills of our volunteers, motivating people to give back and reconnect with their community.
About the role
As Housing Team Leader, you will be responsible for ensuring people being treated by local drug and alcohol services are safely housed in appropriate accommodation so they can focus on their treatment and recovery journey.
You will be responsible for ensuring recovery and treatment services are delivered safely and run in accordance with contract requirements and key deliverables.
You will provide strong, visible operational leadership and inspire and motivate your team to aspire and succeed.
You will work with your team and external partners to assess individual needs, prepare people to move into accommodation and provide practical and psychological support to help them keep their accommodation.
You will work closely with health and treatment services, social enterprises, housing, education, and training providers to develop recovery services that move individuals from homelessness and addiction to purposeful, independent living in the community.
You will be required to work flexibly from different sites and be willing to work some evenings and weekends.
