Job description

Job Role: Floating Support Worker

Salary: £28,655 per year

Hours: 37.5 hours per week, compressed over 4 days

Contract type: Permanent

Location: Southwest, covering Exeter, Somerset, Mendip and Dorset

Additional information:

  • Valid driver's license and access to own vehicle – business insurance will be required for roles involving travel for work.
  • Ability to travel across the Southwest region, including projects based in Exeter, Somerset, Mendip, and Dorset.
  • Ability to work flexibly, including early mornings, evenings, and weekends when required.

As the role involves regular travel, we are ideally looking for candidates based within the Somerset area.

About Alongside:

Alongside is the new name for Julian House. We work with people experiencing social exclusion across the South and West of England, providing outreach, accommodation and support. Our clients may be sleeping rough, fleeing abuse, rebuilding after trauma, leaving prison, recovering from addiction, or trying to settle safely in a new community. Whatever their starting point, we work alongside people to help build safety, stability and independence.

If you’d like a real sense of job satisfaction, great career prospects and a competitive benefits package, you could be who we’re looking for!

About the Role:

As a Floating Support Worker, you’ll play a vital role in supporting services where extra capacity is needed, working across different locations including Exeter, Somerset, Mendip, and Weymouth. This is a varied and dynamic role, offering the opportunity to work across supported housing and outreach services, with no two weeks looking the same.

You’ll work directly with people who have a range of support needs, building positive, professional relationships and providing person‑centred, trauma‑informed support. This includes offering practical help, promoting independence, and responding flexibly to individual circumstances in a fast‑paced environment.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys variety, is well organised, and can adapt to changing priorities and locations. You’ll need to be a driver with access to your own vehicle and business insurance, and be comfortable working flexibly, with rotas provided two weeks in advance and occasional last‑minute changes handled considerately.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Give clients advice and information, providing an enabling service so that they can be signposted to, and access appropriate services.
  • Maintain client records, so they are accurate and fully updated at all times.
  • Ensure all clients are provided with high-quality person-centred services which takes a strength-based and trauma-informed approach.
  • Work collaboratively taking a multi-agency approach to safeguard clients.

Please note: Job descriptions are not exhaustive, and the successful candidate may occasionally be asked to take on other duties that align with the key responsibilities outlined.

What we’re looking for:

  • Full driving licence and access to own car for work purposes.
  • Willingness to travel around the Southwest to support our various projects and teams.
  • Knowledge and understanding of the support needs of people facing homelessness, including those with mental health challenges, complex needs and substance misuse issues.

There are many great reasons to join our team!

  • Access to our Rewards Platform, which includes an Employee Assistance Programme and Health Cash Plan
  • 27 days annual leave, including an extra day off for your birthday, plus bank holidays - increasing up to 30 days after 4 years of continuous employment (pro rata for part-time staff)
  • 30% staff discount at our charity shops
  • A generous and competitive pension scheme
  • A supportive culture where staff feedback is highly valued and regular supervisions with line managers are conducted
  • Great opportunities for career development and free monthly training sessions from experienced facilitators
  • For all the fantastic and valuable work, you’ll be doing, you’ll be eligible for the Blue Light Card which offers amazing discounts on thousands of brands
  • Reflective Practice sessions from objective, external facilitators
