We are looking for a Lead Worker to join the Croydon Reach team.
The Thames Reach Outreach teams operate across London and help those who are rough sleeping to find routes away from the street. The teams respond rapidly and work flexibly to reach people.

.Provide direct support to people who are found rough sleeping to enable them to move away from the streets and into accommodation
.Work alongside partner agencies to ensure that clients are accessing appropriate support to access and sustain accommodation.
.Represent the team at multi-agency meetings
.Accurately record all work completed within given timeframes
To succeed as the Lead Worker, you will have:
.A strong commitment to providing a high standard of service
.Experience working with people who have rough slept or vulnerable adults and supporting them to access services
.Excellent organisation and time management skills in order to remain strongly outcome focused, with the ability to coordinate a high number of cases and complete tasks promptly and efficiently.
.Good communication skills and confidence in public speaking when representing Thames Reach externally
.Experience in forming strong working relationships with partner agencies, being able to challenge them when required
.Strong IT skills with the ability to use Outlook, online recording systems, Excel, and Word, using a tablet and a smart phone
We are listed in the top 100 UK Best Workplaces 2023 in the UK. As part of a commitment to our employees we offer:
.Generous holiday allowance – 29 days per year plus 8 public holidays (pro rata).
.Pension – we contribute 6.5% to your pension when you contribute 1.5%.
