We are excited to be recruiting into our Dispersed Housing team, joining us in making a difference for young people moving on from homelessness.
Our passionate and hardworking team does this through supporting young people to achieve their goals and aspirations and you could be a part of this amazing effort.
Who are we?
We are a leading youth homelessness charity based in the Southwest, working with over 1,500 young people.
At 1625ip we are driven by Social Justice and Passion: we strive to do something that matters and take pride in seeing the results of our work in social outcomes and improving young people’s lives.
How we work
At 1625ip our work is rooted in Psychologically Informed Environments (PIE) and Trauma-Informed Practice (TIP). Our Psychologically Informed Framework shapes how we build relationships, use our spaces, and support young people.
This means we prioritise safety, trust, collaboration, and understanding the impact of trauma in every interaction.
You don’t need prior experience in PIE or TIP to apply
* we’ll support you to learn and develop these approaches in the role.
What you will be doing:
By developing individual support plans that promote independent living skills including accommodation, EET and wellbeing, you will help young people achieve independence.
Using your knowledge and creativity, you will help young people maximise their income and manage any their rent accounts, including addressing any arrears, ensuring optimum income is achieved.
Using your problem‑solving skills, you will explore proactively move‑on options with young people as you support them toward independent living.
By being well organised, efficient, and effective you will undertake a host of housing management tasks including preparing properties for letting, and health and safety checks to ensure the safety of young people, colleagues, and properties.
You will be in the Dispersed Housing team, and your line manager will be our DH Support Manager.
Our Competency Development Framework sits at the heart of how we work at 1625ip.
It links our values with the behaviours we expect to see in everyday practice and supports colleagues to learn, reflect and develop.
It also means our recruitment is grounded in behaviours, not just experience, so applications, interviews and job profiles all focus on how we work, not only what we do.
