Grounded in a Biopsychosocial model and a Psychologically Informed Environment, you will create safe, supportive spaces where recovery, resilience and new possibilities can take root.

Every interaction offers the chance to influence positive change, not only for the clients you support but for the wider communities they are part of.

Joining SHP is more than just taking on a role – it’s stepping into a career where your growth is as important as the progress you help others achieve. We are committed to developing our staff, equipping you with the skills and opportunities to advance while making a meaningful impact on the lives of Londoners experiencing homelessness. Here, your commitment and resilience will not only shape futures but also strengthen an organisation that is determined to end homelessness for good.

About you:

• You have experience supporting people facing multiple challenges, such as substance use, mental health issues, trauma, or offending histories.
• You can carry out assessments, create support plans and manage a caseload in a way that is tailored to each individual.
• You understand the barriers that can prevent people from moving towards independence and have the skills to help them overcome these.
• You stay calm and effective in a crisis, with the confidence to respond to difficult situations safely and constructively.
• You believe in people’s strengths and potential, and ideally have experience working within a Psychologically Informed Environment.
• You are organised, able to manage your time well and can balance independent working with being a supportive team member.

About us:

Single Homeless Project is a London-wide charity. Our vision is of a society where everyone has a place to call home and the chance to live a fulfilling life.

We help single Londoners by preventing homelessness, providing support and accommodation, promoting wellbeing, enhancing opportunity, and being a voice for change. From supporting people in crisis to helping people take the final steps towards independence and employment, we make a difference to 12,000 lives every year across all 32 boroughs.

We offer you more than a job; we offer you a chance to be part of a compassionate, driven team that's committed to making a real difference in people's lives. You'll have the opportunity to lead, co-create, and inspire change while enjoying a collaborative, growth-oriented environment.

Main Purpose of the Role

Khulisa, meaning 'nurture' in the Zulu language of South Africa, is an award-winning charity dedicated to providing therapeutic support to young people. We focus on reaching those who are most at risk – young people from deprived communities who are often marginalized, vulnerable to exclusion, and at heightened risk of becoming involved in crime. Our approach centres on safe, exploratory methods that aim to understand behaviour and experiences often rooted in trauma, abuse, and neglect. We deliver intensive therapeutic programs within educational and community settings, empowering young people to confront the underlying causes of their emotional distress and work toward healing. To create lasting, sustainable change, we work to establish trauma-informed environments around young people by equipping parents, caregivers, educators, and other professionals with the tools they need to offer effective, supportive care. Currently, our services are active in London and Manchester.

As the post holder you will be responsible for delivering our front-line work to young people, parents and other adults (professionals). You will work in schools and in community settings across London to generate impact for young people using Khulisa’s trauma-informed approach. This role requires an enhanced DBS check.

The post holder will be required to work from home permanently but be willing and able to easily travel regularly to various locations in London as necessary to fulfil the requirements of the role, to deliver aspects of the programme, and to engage with other stakeholders and colleagues.
