Ready to help young people build independent, brighter futures?
We're looking for a motivated and compassionate Housing Support Worker to support young people aged 16-25, including care leavers, as they transition into independent living.
This is not a care role, it's about practical guidance, emotional support, and empowering young people with the skills and confidence they need to thrive.
🔎 What You'll Be Doing
Supporting young people to develop key life skills such as budgeting, managing benefits, and maintaining tenancies.
Building positive, trusting relationships that provide stability and encouragement.
Using your own interests (sports, music, art, fitness, etc.) to engage and inspire.
Working collaboratively with internal teams and external agencies.
Managing your own caseload and maintaining accurate records.
✅ What We're Looking For
A natural ability to connect with young people, including those with trauma, mental health challenges, or substance misuse experiences.
Confidence, resilience, and creativity in your approach.
Strong communication and IT skills.
Ability to work independently and as part of a supportive team.
Experience in youth work, housing, education, or similar fields (transferable skills welcomed!).
Safeguarding knowledge is beneficial but not essential.
NVQ/QCF/RQF Level 3 in a related field
🎁 What's in It for You?
Up to 25 days' annual leave
Flexible benefits package (healthcare, dental, retail discounts)
4x life assurance
Up to 10% pension contribution
Funded training, professional development & apprenticeships
Two paid volunteering days per year
A supportive, inclusive team culture
📌 Important to Know
This is a fully onsite role requiring flexibility to work weekends, evenings, early mornings, nights, and bank holidays as part of a rota.
