Summary
About the role:
As a Project Worker for Complex Needs, you will play a crucial role in transforming the lives of adults who have experienced homelessness or rough sleeping. By providing compassionate, high-quality support, you’ll help individuals facing multiple challenges, such as mental health issues, substance use, trauma, and offending behaviour. You’ll assist them in navigating their path to recovery and stability by connecting them with vital services, empowering them to overcome barriers and improve their overall wellbeing.
But the impact you’ll have doesn’t stop there. You will foster hope and resilience by guiding clients toward opportunities for personal growth, training, and employment. You’ll help them build meaningful relationships, engage with their community, and gain the confidence to lead independent, fulfilling lives. In a dynamic hostel setting, you’ll collaborate with a wide network of specialists, offering a tailored, holistic approach that guides clients toward independence and community engagement. Your work will be instrumental in creating lasting change, inspiring clients to believe in their potential, and helping them break free from the cycle of disadvantage. At Single Homeless Project, this is not just a job, it's an opportunity to make a real difference and build a meaningful career.
About you:
A non-judgemental approach to working with multi-disadvantaged clients and to promote a strengths-based approach.
Strong team-working and interpersonal skills, maintaining a collaborative approach to delivering service objectives across work specialisms.
Experience helping people to identify personal goals and supporting them through a process of change, including managing challenging situations in relation to people, including responding calmly to crisis and deal promptly, effectively and safely to complex situations.
Strong time management skills, ability to work on own initiative, manage competing priorities and maintain high standards.
Willingness and ability to work on a rota system of early and late shifts, which may include some variable hours including some evenings and weekends.
About us:
Single Homeless Project is a London-wide charity. Our vision is of a society where everyone has a place to call home and the chance to live a fulfilling life.
We help single Londoners by preventing homelessness, providing support and accommodation, promoting wellbeing, enhancing opportunity, and being a voice for change. From supporting people in crisis to helping people take the final steps towards independence and employment, we make a difference to 12,000 lives every year across all 32 boroughs.
We offer you more than a job; we offer you a chance to be part of a compassionate, driven team that's committed to making a real difference in people's lives. You'll have the opportunity to lead, co-create, and inspire change while enjoying a collaborative, growth-oriented environment.
Join us in creating a brighter, more hopeful future for individuals in need.
