• Manage a caseload and work with external agencies to deliver tailored support.

About You

• Experience working with young people, housing, supported accommodation, education, or related sectors.
• Able to engage with individuals who may have experienced trauma, mental health challenges, or substance misuse.
• Strong communication, organisational, and IT skills.
• Confident working independently and as part of a team.
• Knowledge of safeguarding, support planning, or key working is desirable.

Benefits

• 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays.
• Up to 10% pension contribution.
• 4x Life Assurance.

• Funded training and apprenticeship opportunities.
• Two paid volunteering days per year.
