Victim support jobs

About the role:

As a Project Worker within our Westminster Mental Health Accommodation Services or Wandsworth Properties, you’ll play a vital role in helping people find stability, confidence and a way forward. These are roles rooted in relationships - offering consistency, belief and practical support to people navigating some of life’s most challenging moments. You’ll work alongside residents to create a sense of safety and possibility, supporting them to feel more in control of their lives and their choices.

Working within supported accommodation, you’ll support people to build everyday skills, strengthen wellbeing and reconnect with opportunities that matter to them - whether that’s housing, health, learning, work or community life. You’ll hold a small caseload, developing personalised support and safety plans shaped by each person’s goals, strengths and experiences. Collaboration sits at the heart of the role: with residents, colleagues and partner services, all working together to create meaningful and lasting progress.

This role is for someone who believes in people and is ready to show up with curiosity, compassion and purpose. You’ll join a reflective, supportive team that values initiative, learning and shared responsibility. If you want a role where your work has real impact, where relationships matter and where you can help people move beyond survival towards independence and hope, apply now and bring your tenacity, care and ambition with you.

About you:

• You take a person-centred approach to your work, building trust and working alongside people to shape support that reflects their goals and priorities.
• You’re confident managing a small caseload, using assessment and good judgement to understand needs, risks and progress over time.
• You communicate clearly and work well with others, building strong relationships with colleagues and partner services to achieve the best outcomes.
• You understand the importance of safety, boundaries and accountability, and work in line with health and safety requirements, policies and procedures.
• You’re organised, reflective and committed to learning - keeping accurate records, protecting confidentiality and contributing to service improvement.

About us:

We’re London’s leading homelessness charity – and we get things done.

In a city where hundreds are forced into homelessness every day, our work has never been more needed or more challenging. And we’re not shying away. We’re rolling up our sleeves to make change and helping over 10,000 Londoners every year. We prevent homelessness, provide safe places to live and give people the opportunity to rebuild their lives and transform their futures. And we never give up. 

We’re here for Londoners wherever they are on their journey. We start with trust, building relationships that help people feel safe, supported, and ready to move forward. Every day, we put people first in everything we do, challenging injustice and barriers that keep people from the safety, stability and opportunity they deserve. We stand alongside people as they rebuild and shape a future that feels their own. 

Joining Single Homeless Project means joining a team that’s bold, compassionate and determined to do better for the people we support and for each other. You’ll work alongside colleagues with lived experience, in a space that’s trans-inclusive, disability-friendly, and actively striving to be anti-oppressive and equitable. 

We’re not perfect, but we’re real. We listen. We learn. And we push forward, together. Because this isn’t just a job. It’s a chance to lead with empathy, spark change, and help build a London where no one is left behind.

About the role:

This is a leadership role with real scale, real accountability and real impact. As Services Manager, you’ll lead a multi-site service supporting young people across Greenwich - shaping environments that are safe, consistent and genuinely geared towards helping young people move forward with confidence.

Your presence will be felt across every part of the service. You’ll move between sites, staying close to delivery while holding a clear line of sight on performance, quality and risk. You’ll back your teams to deliver strong, personalised support while keeping a firm grip on housing management, safeguarding and service standards - making sure good practice isn’t occasional, but embedded everywhere.

This is about more than oversight. You’ll build confident, reflective teams who understand young people’s experiences and respond with clarity, consistency and belief in what’s possible. Psychologically informed, trauma-informed and strengths-based approaches won’t sit in policy - you’ll make sure they show up in how teams think, act and support every day.

You’ll also be the connector across the system. Working closely with commissioners, local authorities and partners, you’ll ensure referrals are right, pathways are clear and move-on is intentional from day one. You’ll use data, insight and feedback to challenge drift, drive improvement and keep the service evolving - because standing still isn’t an option when young people are relying on you to get this right.

If you’re motivated by high standards, thrive on leading at scale and believe young people deserve services that are ambitious, consistent and built around their strengths — this is where you make it happen.

About you:

• You’re an experienced manager who can lead and develop teams across multi-site, accommodation-based services, holding clear accountability for performance and standards.
• You have a strong grasp of housing management, safeguarding and health & safety, and are confident managing risk and complexity in a young people’s service.
• You bring experience of working with young people facing multiple disadvantage, and can embed trauma-informed, psychologically informed and strengths-based approaches in practice.
• You build credible, effective relationships with local authorities, commissioners and partner agencies, and represent your service with confidence and clarity.
• You use data, insight and professional judgement to challenge, improve and strengthen outcomes, leading with integrity, curiosity and resilience.
