Summary
We are looking for a Support Practitioner to join our Helensburgh Housing Support teams.
Carr Gomm is one of Scotland’s leading social care organisations. Everything we do is shaped by our core values of choice, control, interdependence, openness & honesty, and respect. Our vision is that we all live in a society where everyone should have the support they need to make choices and to control their lives as citizens. We are a registered charity and not-for-profit company: we put people first, not profits.
The Housing support service provides tenancy support to people who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. To help individuals to sustain and maintain their tenancy and assist people through their journey from homelessness.
In the role of Support Practitioner you will be providing flexible, person centred support to individuals and families in both a one to one setting or through our drop in services. You will help people to develop their life skills, money management skills and help to raise their confidence and self-esteem. Tasks will include assisting with form filling, benefit applications, signposting to other services and practical support in the home. You will be required to utilise both your practical and interpersonal skills.
You don’t need to have experience, as full training is provided, but the right values and motivation are essential; honesty, respect, empathy and compassion are key skills that are required in people who join our teams.
