Job description

The Senior Housing Advisor at SSAFA’s Glasgow’s Helping Heroes (GHH) leads the delivery of high‑quality, person‑centred housing and homelessness support for members of the Armed Forces community at risk of homelessness. The postholder provides professional oversight of housing advice, casework and tenancy sustainment, setting clear standards for inclusive practice and addressing barriers to housing.

The role involves supporting triage, allocating and monitoring caseloads, and guiding staff on complex and high‑risk cases. Alongside holding a caseload, the postholder focuses on quality assurance, escalation, problem‑solving and service development.

The postholder will oversee the use of rent deposit, first‑month rent and emergency accommodation funding, ensuring fair and transparent decision‑making, and contributes to tenancy sustainment outcomes, service planning and reporting. This role combines leadership with operational oversight, supporting staff development, safeguarding and data quality while playing a key role in preventing homelessness and supporting veterans to secure and sustain safe housing.

This is a community‑based role involving citywide travel, outreach work and home visits, requiring flexibility to respond to urgent or changing needs.

As a pet‑friendly service, GHH regularly supports beneficiaries who may have assistance or support animals.

About the Team

GHH, based at the Pearce Institute in Govan and delivered in partnership with SSAFA and Glasgow City Council, provides trusted support to serving personnel, veterans, and their families. Our trauma‑informed, holistic approach offers wraparound assistance that addresses housing needs alongside wider wellbeing challenges, helping beneficiaries build resilience and sustain long‑term housing solutions.

The service operates a gateway model, giving the Armed Forces community a single point of contact for housing, financial, employability and wider support.

You’ll be part of a highly collaborative network, working closely with local and national partners such as Citizens Advice Scotland, Veterans Housing Scotland, Erskine, Scottish Veterans Residences, Defence Medical Welfare Services, Homeless Casework Teams and Homeless Network Scotland. The role also involves attending stakeholder events that may occasionally fall outside of standard office hours.  

About you

You’ll be a proactive, organised and compassionate professional, with the resilience and judgement needed to thrive in a demanding, community‑focused role. You’ll have a clear commitment to improving outcomes for members of the Armed Forces community and a strong sense of integrity as priorities and demands change.

You’ll be confident managing your own workload while supporting and overseeing the work of others, creating a safe, supportive and accountable working environment. With a clear understanding of the pressures involved in working with people in crisis, you’ll be able to adapt your approach to risk, urgency and complexity, confidently managing high‑risk situations and supporting sound decision‑making. You’ll maintain high standards in safeguarding, data quality and professional boundaries at all times.

You’ll manage a varied caseload and deliver person‑centred support, working closely with local authorities, landlords and partner agencies. Strong communication, problem‑solving and organisational skills are essential.

A CIH Level 2 or 3 qualification is essential, alongside experience of delivering housing advice, homelessness prevention and/or tenancy sustainment support.

About SSAFA 

SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity, is a trusted source of support for the Armed Forces community in their time of need. In 2024, our dedicated teams of volunteers and employees supported more than 54,000 people through a wide range of services. This includes veterans, serving personnel (regulars and reserves), and their families, wherever and whenever they need us.

SSAFA understands that behind every uniform is a person. We are here for that person and their family, offering practical, emotional, and financial support tailored to their unique circumstances.

Diversity and Inclusion at SSAFA

We therefore encourage applications from all genders, races, religions, ages and sexual orientations, as well as parents, veterans, people living with disabilities, and any other groups that could bring diverse perspectives to our business. 

SSAFA is committed to using the Disclosure & Barring Service to ensure we, as an employer, safeguard those we serve.
