About The Gatehouse and OWNS:

The Gatehouse and Oxford Winter Night Shelter (OWNS) are working in partnership to provide support for adults experiencing homelessness or who are vulnerably housed in Oxford.

Both organisations provide welcoming, trauma-informed environments where people can access practical support, community and opportunities to move towards greater stability and independence. This project has been developed to strengthen access to employment, training, volunteering and financial resilience opportunities for people who may otherwise face significant barriers to engaging with these pathways.

Staff receive a 5% pension contribution, cashback healthcare scheme and other benefits.

Job Purpose:

The Employment Support Worker will provide specialist support for people experiencing homelessness or housing insecurity who wish to move towards employment, volunteering, training or other meaningful activity.

The role will help individuals identify their strengths, interests and aspirations and overcome practical, emotional and structural barriers that prevent them from progressing. This may involve confidence building, CV preparation, job searching, interview preparation, digital skills development, accessing training opportunities and sustaining employment once achieved.

Working across both The Gatehouse and The Living Room, the postholder will build trusting relationships with guests, delivering one-to-one support, workshops and practical activities that increase confidence, skills and independence.

The Employment Support Worker will be part of The Gatehouse's established Casework Team and work closely with colleagues, volunteers and partner organisations to create positive pathways away from homelessness and towards stability and independence.

This is a rewarding role that provides an opportunity to support people facing significant challenges to achieve their goals, develop their potential and improve their life chances.

Encourage participation in practical activities such as gardening, cooking, maintenance tasks and other work-related experiences.

Partnership Working

Develop positive relationships with employers, training providers and community organisations.
Work collaboratively with The Gatehouse Casework Team, OWNS staff and volunteers.
Liaise with external agencies and refer guests to specialist services where necessary.
Advocate on behalf of guests to improve access to opportunities and services.

Monitoring, Recording and Evaluation

Maintain accurate and confidential records in line with GDPR requirements.
Record outputs, outcomes and progress using organisational systems.
Gather case studies and evidence demonstrating the impact of the project.

Contribute to service development and continuous improvement.
Undertake any other duties reasonably required by the Casework Manager.
