Pertemps are currently recruiting for a Support Worker to join a dedicated and compassionate team providing holistic, person-centred support to individuals who have experienced or are at risk of homelessness - including veterans and those with complex needs.
This is a temporary position running until March 2026, with an immediate start available for the right candidate.
The Role As a Support Worker, you'll work with a small caseload of 5-8 customers, allowing you to provide tailored, high-quality support. The focus will be on empowering individuals to gain independence, achieve their personal goals, and maintain sustainable accommodation.

Work flexibly across different locations and occasionally outside standard office hours to meet client needs.
About You We are looking for someone with a positive, solution-focused approach who is passionate about helping others. While previous experience in a similar role is desirable, a strong motivation to support vulnerable individuals is essential.
You will have:
Experience supporting individuals from diverse backgrounds with varying needs.
Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to manage challenging behaviours.
Confidence working both independently and as part of a wider team.
Excellent communication and record-keeping skills.
A good understanding of safeguarding, housing support, and local support services.

Knowledge of housing-related support and homelessness issues
Experience working with vulnerable groups in 1:1 or group settings
Understanding of training, employment, and educational pathways
Up-to-date safeguarding training
