Administrative support worker jobs in City of london, england

One of two Outreach and Project Workers pivotal to the delivery of an exciting new Women at Risk (WaR) project which will support women at risk of rough sleeping, homelessness and exploitation. Working across key areas of Enfield and Haringey you will, through a combination of nighttime outreach and daytime service provision, be critical to supporting a coordinated response across multiple agencies already engaged in this work.

You will undertake at least twice weekly nighttime outreach, support additional services and existing outreach provision and develop a daytime offer that meets the needs of women engaged through outreach and identified as at high risk of harm and homelessness.   

You will have responsibility for a caseload of women identified through outreach, referral and presentation at ours and other services. You will provide advocacy, casework support and connection and referral into other agencies which can help them address their needs.

This is a fantastic opportunity to become part of a passionate, high performing team and support the development of a new service which is meeting identified gaps in local provision.

About the role:

165 King’s Cross Road is at the frontline of Camden’s response to rough sleeping. As a 16-bed short stay service, it’s more than accommodation – it’s a critical turning point. As a Resettlement Worker, you will make sure that time spent here leads somewhere meaningful.

You’ll work with people who are navigating multiple disadvantage – including mental and physical health challenges, substance use, and contact with the criminal justice system. Your role is to turn crisis into momentum. Through high-quality assessments, personalised move-on planning and creative problem-solving, you’ll support clients to secure safe, appropriate accommodation and take their next steps towards independence.

Resettlement is not just about finding a room. It’s about widening options, challenging barriers and advocating for people who may struggle to access housing on their own. You’ll build strong relationships with housing providers, the private rented sector and pathway services, navigating local connection rules and housing systems with confidence and persistence.

Your impact will be tangible. Every sustainable move-on frees up a bed for someone in crisis. Every successful tenancy reduces the risk of a return to rough sleeping. This is a role for someone who is organised, proactive and driven by outcomes - someone who believes that short stay should truly mean short stay.

If you’re ready to be part of decisive, coordinated action to end rough sleeping in Camden, we’d love to hear from you.

About you:

• You have experience supporting people facing homelessness and multiple disadvantage, with a strong understanding of the Recovery Model and strengths-based practice.
• You understand housing pathways and/or the private rented sector and can confidently navigate move-on options.
• You are skilled at completing high-quality risk and needs assessments and translating them into clear, SMART resettlement plans.
• You build strong partnerships with statutory and non-statutory services, advocating effectively on behalf of clients.
• You’re organised, confident with recording systems and numeracy tasks (e.g. budgeting, rent accounts, benefit calculations), and able to balance competing priorities in a fast-paced service.
