Are you passionate about making a lasting difference to the lives of vulnerable adults?
We are looking for a Progression Coach in Bristol to join the Skills and Progression team. A safe and secure place to stay is often the first step away from homelessness. But many of our clients also need support to develop independent living skills, build confidence in their ability to achieve, improve their wellbeing, and raise their aspirations – so they can move on from homelessness and rebuild their lives for good.
Over the last couple of years, the Skills and Progression team in the Learning Training and Employment Services directorate worked with clients and staff to develop a range of new tools and approaches to improve our offer for clients. Progression coaches play a key role in this process. They are a dedicated resource to services to support clients in developing independent living skills and accessing external learning and training opportunities.
With a strong focus on identifying a client's strengths, interests and goals the purpose of the role is to support clients in their services with independent living skills delivered on a 1-2-1 basis or in small groups. The role also involves supporting clients to take advantage of more structured external and internal opportunities including volunteering, training, education, apprenticeships and employment where appropriate.
Although a driving licence is not essential for this role, you will be expected to travel between various locations in Bristol.
About you
We are looking for an individual with a growth-led mindset, can-do attitude and interest in service improvement to help us refine a new progression coaching framework, which might include supervising 1-2 peer volunteers, and supporting the development of learning resources for staff and clients around independent living skills.
This is a unique opportunity to be part of a fast-moving service design project and getting to grips with the continuous cycle of Test & Learn which underpins innovation.

· Confident delivering both 1:1 coaching and structured group sessions
· Able to challenge constructively as well as support
· Focused on outcomes, not just activity
· Organised, resilient and able to manage competing demands

As one of the founding funders of A Bed Every Night, we have been at the forefront of efforts to reduce rough sleeping in the city region. The funds we have raised have gone to frontline services offering a warm welcome, hot food, safe shelter and wrap-around support to help move people into more stable accommodation. However, our support for the homelessness ecosystem extends beyond A Bed Every Night, as we also provide funding for initiatives, organisations and projects that can help stop homelessness before it becomes a reality, and ensure it is only ever rare, brief and non-recurrent.
Working with businesses, people and communities across Greater Manchester, we raise funds to deliver grants across three priority areas:
1. Emergency Response
2. Places and Spaces
3. Prevention
2026 is an exciting year for the Charity as we embark on the next phase of our growth and look to appoint a new Communications & Campaigns Manager to help us drive this forward. If you are ready to bring our vision to life, excited to work within a small but committed team dedicated to addressing homelessness in Greater Manchester, then we look forward to receiving your application!
Homelessness has no place in Greater Manchester.
About the role:
As a Project Worker within our Westminster Mental Health Accommodation Services or Wandsworth Properties, you’ll play a vital role in helping people find stability, confidence and a way forward. These are roles rooted in relationships - offering consistency, belief and practical support to people navigating some of life’s most challenging moments. You’ll work alongside residents to create a sense of safety and possibility, supporting them to feel more in control of their lives and their choices.
Working within supported accommodation, you’ll support people to build everyday skills, strengthen wellbeing and reconnect with opportunities that matter to them - whether that’s housing, health, learning, work or community life. You’ll hold a small caseload, developing personalised support and safety plans shaped by each person’s goals, strengths and experiences. Collaboration sits at the heart of the role: with residents, colleagues and partner services, all working together to create meaningful and lasting progress.
This role is for someone who believes in people and is ready to show up with curiosity, compassion and purpose. You’ll join a reflective, supportive team that values initiative, learning and shared responsibility. If you want a role where your work has real impact, where relationships matter and where you can help people move beyond survival towards independence and hope, apply now and bring your tenacity, care and ambition with you.
About you:
- You take a person-centred approach to your work, building trust and working alongside people to shape support that reflects their goals and priorities.
- You’re confident managing a small caseload, using assessment and good judgement to understand needs, risks and progress over time.
- You communicate clearly and work well with others, building strong relationships with colleagues and partner services to achieve the best outcomes.
- You understand the importance of safety, boundaries and accountability, and work in line with health and safety requirements, policies and procedures.
- You’re organised, reflective and committed to learning - keeping accurate records, protecting confidentiality and contributing to service improvement.
About us:
We’re London’s leading homelessness charity – and we get things done.
In a city where hundreds are forced into homelessness every day, our work has never been more needed or more challenging. And we’re not shying away. We’re rolling up our sleeves to make change and helping over 10,000 Londoners every year. We prevent homelessness, provide safe places to live and give people the opportunity to rebuild their lives and transform their futures. And we never give up.
We’re here for Londoners wherever they are on their journey. We start with trust, building relationships that help people feel safe, supported, and ready to move forward. Every day, we put people first in everything we do, challenging injustice and barriers that keep people from the safety, stability and opportunity they deserve. We stand alongside people as they rebuild and shape a future that feels their own.
Joining Single Homeless Project means joining a team that’s bold, compassionate and determined to do better for the people we support and for each other. You’ll work alongside colleagues with lived experience, in a space that’s trans-inclusive, disability-friendly, and actively striving to be anti-oppressive and equitable.
We’re not perfect, but we’re real. We listen. We learn. And we push forward, together. Because this isn’t just a job. It’s a chance to lead with empathy, spark change, and help build a London where no one is left behind.

Could you support our team through an exciting mix of community, corporate, individual and grant fundraising? We are growing our Fundraising team to meet increased demand for our services, tackling homelessness in Surrey. If you're interested in working across all types of Fundraising and making a genuine difference every day, then this unique role might be for you!
About Us:
At York Road Project, we are dedicated to transforming the lives of individuals experiencing homelessness in Woking. We believe in harnessing the unique strengths and potential of each individual to create a pathway towards stability and independence. We are seeking a Fundraising Officer to join our team who can support our Fundraising Manager to secure charitable income essential to the delivery of our services.
The Role:
As our Fundraising Officer, you will work closely with the Fundraising Manager to deliver our fundraising strategy. You will help deliver annual fundraising events; bid to corporate supporters, trusts and foundations; and build strong relationships with community organisations and individual donors. You will be part of a fantastic team, dedicated to making a real difference in defeating homelessness.
We are looking for a passionate and adaptable individual, who can support the Fundraising Manager across all voluntary income streams, from formal bids to fun community events.
This role is especially crucial as our charity’s need for fundraised income has risen significantly in the last three years - as result of the increased cost of living, and reduced support from the local authority. Despite these challenges, York Road Project’s work remains immensely valuable to the local community. If you have excellent communication skills and a passion for charity work, we would love to hear from you.
Please read the full job description, then apply with your CV and a cover letter. We will shortlist applicants at midday on 3rd June, and arrange interviews in early June.
