Role Summary
You will ensure the excellent operation and administration of the trust as we pursue our mission of “Strengthening the Church to meet the needs of the vulnerable”.

Why do we need an Operations Coordinator?
Müllers exists today to “Strengthen the Church to meet the needs of the vulnerable.” In all we do,
we work to help Christians use their skills and influence for the benefit of the most disadvantaged people of our world.

Our work
Last year, Müllers resourced 228 global partners through prayer and donating £1.3 million as they met the practical, financial, spiritual and health needs of the most vulnerable of our world. We taught a free, year long theology course to 22 students to inspire their faith and strengthen their minsitry. We equipped 49 youthworkers to engage with young people in Bristol. We saw record numbers visit our museum, we hosted workshops on caring for the elderly and mentored church leaders, all so we can continue to pursue George Müller's vision, "that it may be seen that God is faithful still and hears prayers still." Would you consider joining us to make future years even better?

Then join Shelter as a Children & Families Support Worker and you could soon be playing a vital role aimed at minimising the impact of bad housing, homelessness and exclusion in the Bristol area.
About Shelter
A home is a fundamental human need, as essential as education or healthcare.

About the role
As a Support Worker we’ll rely on you to deliver professional, impartial, pragmatic and outcome focused support for a caseload of families.

Your primary focus will be on households where some tailored interventions are required around the needs of the children in order to stabilise their housing situation and enable the family to thrive. Accordingly, you’ll need to provide intensive, tailored support as part of a whole family approach in a 1-2-1 setting and via group work. On any given day you could be advising on techniques and approaches to ease pressures on vulnerable families or advocating on behalf of a family so that they’re able to access support that meets their needs. Along the way, you’ll need to regularly visits clients’ homes and schools across the city and liaise with other agencies in the community in order to provide a co-ordinated service.

We believe that people with lived experience are often best placed to use this to shape the way they work with the people who use our services. Therefore, we would specifically like to hear from people with personal experience of homelessness. If you are also familiar with housing, homelessness and ASB legislation and welfare benefits that affect families, that would be great, but we are more interested in your ability to work with families and children, who are sometimes in great distress due to their circumstances. You’ll need to be able to demonstrate that you have worked within, or understand, a safeguarding framework, that you can balance competing priorities and that you are proactive in the way that you work.
You’ll need to be able to use a range of IT tools to carry out your work, including case management systems, Microsoft Office applications, internet and email etc., and be able to type. You must also possess a valid driving licence and be willing to use your vehicle for work purposes, for which an essential car allowance will be paid.
Benefits
We offer a wide range of benefits, including 30 days of annual leave, enhanced family friendly policies, pension and interest free travel loans. Our employees also have access to a tenancy deposit loan, payroll giving, cycle to work scheme and an employee assistance programme.
Shelter helps millions of people every year struggling with bad housing or homelessness through our advice, support and legal services. And we campaign to make sure that, one day, no one will have to turn to us for help. We’re here so no one has to fight bad housing or homelessness on their own.
