Are you passionate about supporting vulnerable individuals and helping them achieve stability and independence? SPEAR is seeking a Housing First Worker to deliver the Housing First service in Richmond.
The role
In this pivotal role, you will provide intensive, personalised support to rough sleepers who have not progressed through traditional housing pathways. By fostering strong relationships and advocating for clients’ welfare rights, health needs and tenancy responsibilities, you will help them sustain independent tenancies and rebuild their lives.
You will work with outreach teams, tenancy support staff and external agencies to ensure clients receive tailored guidance and access to essential services. This is your chance to be part of a team committed to transforming lives and breaking the cycle of homelessness.
Your benefits
– 34 days holiday (inclusive of bank holidays) increasing with length of service
– Enhanced maternity and paternity leave
– Enhanced occupational sick pay
– Enrolment into our pension scheme after three months’ service
– Yearly eye care vouchers
Your perks
– 24-hour access to confidential counselling services (EAP)
– Free staff wellbeing sessions
– Flexible working
– Free moving house day
– Staff interest-free loan and season ticket loans
– Cycle to work scheme and free parking at some sites
Once you join us, you will be eligible for a whole host of benefits. Need a day off to move house? We can do that. Want to be out in nature every day and cycle to work? No problem. Need to know you’ll be financially secure whether you’re sick, having a child, or simply in the future? We’ve got that covered with sick pay, parental leave, and a great pension scheme.
We will also ensure your mental wellbeing can be your number one priority through access to a confidential counselling service, so you can go home every day, knowing your hard work is helping some of those most marginalised in society move from homelessness to independence.
SPEAR welcome and encourage applications from everyone, regardless of age, disability, gender, ethnicity, religion or sexual orientation.
