About us 

Herts Young Homeless is an independent charity that has supported vulnerable young people across Hertfordshire since 1998.

We’re a passionate, professional and supportive team, working together to prevent and relieve youth homelessness and help young people build safer, more stable futures.

 About the Role

We’re looking for an Outreach Housing Support Worker to join our team and provide high‑quality housing advice and support to young people aged 18–24.

This is a flexible role that responds to the needs of young people in the community, helping them navigate housing challenges and avoid or move on from homelessness.

The Difference You’ll Make

In this role, you’ll deliver tailored housing advice that helps young people understand their realistic options and take positive steps forward—particularly during times of crisis.

You’ll play a key role in preventing both first-time and repeat homelessness by building strong relationships and supporting meaningful engagement.

The young people we work with are resilient and inspiring, but may face complex barriers with limited support. We’re looking for someone who brings empathy, patience and determination, and who is committed to helping others grow in confidence and independence.

 What You’ll Be Doing

You’ll have a varied and rewarding role, including:

• Delivering high-quality housing advice and guidance to young people aged 18–24
• Supporting individuals to understand their housing rights, options and responsibilities
• Building trusting, professional relationships to encourage engagement and positive outcomes
• Working with colleagues and external partners to prevent homelessness and coordinate support
• Managing a varied caseload with competing priorities and timescales
• Identifying and responding to risk, including safeguarding concerns
• Supporting young people through crisis situations and helping them plan next steps
• Maintaining accurate, timely records and case notes
• Promoting independence, resilience and informed decision-making

What We’re Looking For

We’re keen to hear from people who are:

• Passionate about supporting individuals with diverse and complex needs
• Committed to providing inclusive, compassionate and person-centred support
• Knowledgeable about the challenges facing young people experiencing homelessness
• Skilled at building rapport, motivating others and maintaining professional boundaries
• Confident managing workloads and balancing competing priorities
• Well organised, with strong administration and IT skills (Word, Excel, Teams, Outlook)
• Clear on confidentiality, safeguarding and professional integrity
• Able to work independently and collaboratively within a team
• Flexible, adaptable and committed to ongoing learning

You’ll also need:

• A full, clean UK driving licence and access to your own vehicle

Experience in the voluntary sector is helpful but not essential—we value transferable skills, lived values and a willingness to learn.

This post is classed as having a high degree of contact with children or young adults and is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. An enhanced disclosure will be sought through the Disclosure & Barring Service (DBS) as part of Herts Young Homeless’ pre-employment checks. Please note that additional information referring to the DBS is in the guidance notes to the application form.
