Are you passionate about making a lasting difference to the lives of vulnerable adults?
We are looking for a Recovery Worker who is motivated, grounded, and compassionate; someone who can work confidently in a client‑facing environment, respond to risk dynamically, and build meaningful relationships with people who may have experienced repeated trauma and exclusion.
Ealing Accommodation Services provides high‑support, 24‑hour staffed accommodation for 24 adults with complex and multiple needs who have experienced street homelessness.
