The Role

The Greenspeaker programme focuses on quality conversations that aim to really connect and inspire people to act. The focus is on relating to the audience as individual agents for change in their community - and that’s what sets Greenpeace Speakers aside from typical school or community talk-givers.

Requirements

We’re looking for someone with significant experience of coordinating, inspiring and supporting volunteers. You will be an extremely effective communicator, with experience of delivering events and training, with excellent inter-personal skills, a preference for team working and be able to maintain strong, trusting relationships. You will have a good knowledge of campaign strategy and tactics and a desire to affect change.

We can offer you a friendly, fast-paced, immensely rewarding working environment where creativity is encouraged and ideas are supported.

You will have the opportunity to develop both personally and professionally, as you are able to take advantage of the wide range of learning and development opportunities available to our staff.

Greenpeace UK is an inclusive and diversity-friendly employer. We value difference, promote equality and challenge discrimination, enhancing our organisational capability. We welcome and encourage applications from people of all backgrounds and do not discriminate on the basis of disability, race, colour, ethnicity, gender, religion, sexual orientation, age or any other category protected by law. Greenpeace UK was recently awarded the National Equality Standard, one of the UK’s most rigorous accreditations for equality, diversity and inclusion.

About our work and values

Do you have passion for your work, a commitment to excellence and a desire to support some of the most vulnerable and excluded people in our communities? Could you support us to make positive lasting changes in people’s lives?

Providence Row works with more than a thousand homeless and vulnerably housed people a year in East London, offering an integrated service of crisis support, advice, recovery and learning and training programmes.  Our aim is to ensure that people who are so often excluded from mainstream services gain the support and opportunities they need to create a safe, healthy and sustainable life away from the streets. Central to our work are our core values of Compassion, Respect, Inclusiveness, Empowerment and Justice.  These inform the content, style and delivery of all our services.

RESET Outreach and Referral Service

Providence Row has been successful in winning the new Reset Outreach & Referral Service contract.  Having successfully delivered the contract for 3 years Providence Row is now building on its success with engagement and minimising harms through outreach work in the vibrant yet complex Borough of Tower Hamlets.

The Service is based at the central hub delivered by Providence Row and is commissioned by Tower Hamlets Drug and Alcohol Action Team (DAAT).  The service works seamlessly with Reset Treatment and Reset Recovery Support Services providing residents of Tower Hamlets with the drug and alcohol support they need.

The Outreach team includes a needle exchange provision and onsite support at the hub.  The team works alongside other Outreach provisions within the Borough and partnership work is key.

The service is delivered through a “strengths based” approach.  This means that all staff involved in the delivery of the service must work with, rather than for clients to address their situation. This approach taken by Providence Row recognises that clients are people with problems, not problem people.  The service will engage clients in the development, delivery and evaluation of the work, working with a team of peer mentors with lived experience of substance misuse.

Your contribution to our work and values

• Passionate and have experience providing a quality Outreach Service.
• Experience working with people actively using drugs and alcohol and be understanding of their circumstance. 
• Drive and commitment to work with some of the most vulnerable and excluded people living in Tower Hamlets.
•  An excellent communicator, have the ability to lead a small team, able to coordinate partnership working and create positive working relationships with a wide range of people. 
• Creative, innovative and well organised.
• Experience managing a small team and an understanding of outreach work. 

Are you passionate about supporting our clients on their journey to recovery?

We have an exciting opportunity for an Outreach Worker to join our small team in Brent, working closely with our clients supporting them to move away from the streets into accommodation or reconnection services.

About the role

In this role you will have the privilege of finding, assessing and supporting individuals to end their rough sleeping.

Practically this will mean working within a small team, building fast and strong working relationships with clients and external partners.

You will be completing a range of shifts including working late at night, early in the morning and case management shifts during office hours, all whilst enduring the great British weather.

You will maintain a caseload of clients, offering them assertive, consistent ongoing guidance & support until they are in a position to be able to move from the street into accommodation or reconnection services and/or other appropriate support services.

What we’re looking for

We are looking for an enthusiastic, empathetic individual who has a clear understanding of professional boundaries. Ideally you will have experience of promptly assessing, planning and completing actions with Homeless and/or vulnerable adults, in very complex situations.

To succeed in this role you will need the capacity to work under pressure, work independently and remain enthusiastic and motivated in a demanding and results driven role.

If this sound like you we’d love to hear from you!
