Assess and interview potential service users, identifying needs, risks and suitability for accommodation.
Provide ongoing one-to-one support through weekly key work sessions and personalised support planning.
Safeguard vulnerable adults and ensure accommodation is safe, secure and well managed.
Support service users with housing and benefit applications, including resolving housing benefit issues.
Work in partnership with external agencies and make referrals to specialist services, including mental health support.
Maintain accurate records, prepare reports, and ensure all supported housing documentation is up to date.

What you will need:

Experience working with vulnerable people, including those experiencing homelessness or complex needs.
Strong communication skills, with the ability to build professional relationships while maintaining boundaries.
Ability to manage a caseload, prioritise workload and work effectively under pressure.
Good written skills and IT competence for accurate record keeping and report writing.
A calm, non-judgemental approach with a strong understanding of safeguarding and equality.
A full driving licence (maximum 3 penalty points) and access to a vehicle, with flexibility to undertake on-call duties.

If you would like to be part of a team making a real difference in people’s lives, we would love to hear from you.

Work schedule: Rotating shifts of 8am to 4pm and 10am to 6pm. Participation in an on-call rota is required.

Location: This role is based at our Ouse project covering a number of properties in Sandy and Biggleswade.

Head Office: 104 Midland Road, Bedford MK40 1QE. This role requires regular travel to provide support across all Amicus Trust accommodations.
