The role in Approved Premises (AP) involves supporting high-risk individuals transitioning from prison back into the community. Staff work closely with residents, providing guidance, promoting positive behaviour, and helping them build independence while maintaining a structured environment. Responsibilities include preparing meals, supporting rehabilitation plans in collaboration with probation and external agencies, and ensuring residents follow rules such as curfews and drug/alcohol testing. Staff are also expected to assist in running and documenting activities, completing daily tasks, and keeping the premises safe, clean, and secure through regular checks and communication. A key aspect of the role is empowering residents to take responsibility for their own lives, without doing things for them, while providing support and supervision as needed. Staff must adhere to Hestia's policies and the Ministry of Justice's guidelines. 

You'll need to be able to demonstrate the core skills this role requires as well as match our values and mission. You don't have to tick all the boxes right away; the important thing is that you're willing to learn. We also value lived experience of the areas we support, so if you feel comfortable, please do mention this on your application.

Here's what the team will be looking for:

This role requires strong communication skills to engage effectively with others, offering a flexible and responsive approach. You should be optimistic about people's potential for change and able to learn quickly, gather information, and make informed decisions. The ability to set and maintain clear boundaries is essential, using authority appropriately while maintaining a positive, pro-social approach. Accurate record-keeping and sharing of information, while respecting confidentiality, is crucial. Understanding the emotional and behavioral impact of trauma and working with individuals displaying various emotions and behaviors is key. You must work well within a team, leading by example, and taking a hands-on approach to practical tasks like cooking, gardening, and leisure activities. A good understanding of safeguarding issues and how to address them is also required.
