Offer description

We're looking for inspirational, compassionate, and resilient female Support Workers to join our 24/7 supported accommodation service for vulnerable young women aged 18-25. This role is about more than providing support - it's about nurturing potential, empowering independence, and helping each young woman build the confidence to create a brighter future.

You'll work closely with young women facing complex challenges, including mental health struggles and crisis situations. Collaboration is key - you'll work in partnership with Social Services and other multi-agency professionals to deliver holistic, trauma-informed support tailored to each customer's needs.

You'll work flexibly across a Monday to Sunday rota, covering a mix of day and waking night shifts, ensuring 24/7 support is always available.


What You'll Do

* Build meaningful, trust-based relationships with young women to support their journey towards independence and social inclusion.
* Provide crisis intervention and emotional support, helping customers navigate challenging situations with compassion and calm.
* Develop and implement personalized support plans and risk assessments rooted in Trauma-Informed Care (TIC) and Psychologically Informed Environments (PIE) principles.
* Collaborate with Social Services and external agencies to provide holistic, wraparound support.
* Inspire a positive, nurturing culture that empowers young women to build resilience and take control of their lives.


We\u2019re looking for passionate individuals who

* Understand what exceptional person-centred support looks like and strive to deliver it every day.
* Have experience supporting young people at risk, former LAC (Looked After Children), or those Leaving Care.
* Are skilled at handling mental health crises and challenging behaviours with empathy and professionalism.
* Possess excellent communication, IT, writing, and reporting skills.
* Can confidently conduct meaningful key-working sessions, offering guidance and emotional support.
* Know how to de-escalate situations and use problem-solving skills to create safe spaces.
* Are experts in developing, reviewing, and embedding support plans and risk assessments.
* Excel at building positive relationships with external agencies and customer support networks.
* Embrace our core values and work passionately to embed them in everything you do.
