What you'll do
You will provide housing-related support to individuals in their own homes, helping them maintain their accommodation and develop independent living skills. This includes supporting with budgeting, tenancy management and accessing services, while encouraging social inclusion and community engagement. You will work in a psychologically informed way, contribute to support plans and risk assessments, liaise with partner agencies, and maintain accurate records.
What you'll need
You will have experience supporting people with complex needs such as mental health, physical disabilities or older people, along with strong communication and organisational skills. You should be able to work independently, manage challenges calmly, and take a person-centred, empathetic approach. Basic IT skills are important, and knowledge of housing support or a Social Care qualification is desirable but not essential.
