About the role: 

Every day in this role is different, but at the heart of it is one thing: helping people feel safer, more stable and more in control of their lives.

You’ll work alongside people facing homelessness, isolation, poor mental or physical health, domestic abuse, substance use and other forms of multiple disadvantage, providing practical and emotionally intelligent support that meets people where they are.

This is a role built on relationships. You’ll work closely with clients in their homes and communities, creating support plans that feel realistic, empowering and genuinely person-centred. Whether you’re helping someone manage rent arrears, reconnect with services, settle into a new home or take steps towards work, training or improved wellbeing, your support will help people move forward in meaningful and lasting ways.

You’ll be part of Westminster Floating Support, a fast-paced and supportive service funded by Westminster City Council, delivering housing-related support to people in all types of accommodation across the borough. Working as part of a collaborative and psychologically informed team, you’ll build strong partnerships with local services and agencies to make sure clients receive joined-up, holistic support.

About you:

• You bring experience supporting people facing multiple disadvantage, including homelessness, mental ill health, substance use, domestic abuse or social isolation, and know how to build trusting relationships that help people feel heard, respected and supported
• You feel confident helping people navigate the practical challenges that can put a tenancy at risk, from budgeting and benefits to rent arrears, housing options and building everyday independent living skills
• You work in a psychologically informed, strengths-based way, understanding how to motivate and empower people to move towards greater stability, confidence and independence at their own pace
• You’re able to balance empathy with professional curiosity, using support planning, risk assessment and safeguarding practice to provide safe, thoughtful and person-centred support
• You’re organised, proactive and able to manage a varied caseload while working collaboratively with colleagues and partner agencies to help clients achieve meaningful and lasting outcomes

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.

Trekstock Cancer Support is the go-to place for exercise and mental wellbeing support for people in their 20s, 30s and 40s living with and beyond cancer - a group too often overlooked. We exist to help people rebuild their strength, confidence and energy through movement, community and expert-led support, from diagnosis through to life after treatment.

We’re a small, ambitious team building something genuinely transformative, and we’re looking for a passionate and proactive Community Fundraising & Events Manager to help drive our next phase of growth.

This is a hands-on, relationship-led role at the heart of our fundraising. You’ll take ownership of key income streams including challenge events, corporate partnerships and supporter engagement, helping us grow income while delivering an exceptional experience for everyone who supports Trekstock.

From leading flagship events like Trek This City to developing meaningful corporate partnerships, you’ll play a key role in bringing new people into our community - and keeping them connected to our mission.

If you’re a confident self-starter who thrives in a dynamic environment, loves building relationships, and wants to make a tangible difference to the lives of people affected by cancer, this is an opportunity to take ownership and help shape the future of Trekstock.

About you

You’re a confident relationship-builder who loves making things happen. You’re organised, proactive, and comfortable taking ownership in a small, ambitious team. Most importantly, you care about creating meaningful experiences for supporters and making a real impact.

You’ll bring:

• Experience in fundraising (community, corporate or similar)
• Strong relationship management and communication skills
• The ability to manage projects from idea through to delivery
• A self-starter mindset and confidence working independently
• Great attention to detail and experience using a CRM or database

Why join us

• Be part of a small, ambitious charity making a real impact
• Shape the future of Trekstock’s fundraising
• Flexible, hybrid working
• Health and wellbeing support + extra leave (including birthday + Christmas closure)
• A supportive, down-to-earth team culture

Trekstock is committed to building an inclusive team and welcomes applications from people of all backgrounds and experiences.

Help build a more inclusive Cheshire East—by empowering people to lead change in their own communities.

Be part of a role where relationships, lived experience and local action create real impact.

As a Community Champion, you’ll be at the heart of community life—building trusted relationships, running conversations and awareness sessions, and helping people feel more included, confident and connected.

A key part of your role will be to find, train and support new Community Champions—people with lived experience who want to make a difference locally. You’ll help them grow in confidence to lead peer activity, share insight and shape what happens next.

You’ll also work with employers and community organisations to break down barriers, improve inclusion, and open up access to wellbeing support, volunteering, training and work. Along the way, you’ll gather real insight and help turn it into practical change.

We’re especially interested in people with lived experience of disability or long-term health conditions—but more than anything, we’re looking for someone who is approachable, proactive and committed to fairness. Someone who builds trust, listens well, and supports others to step forward.

If you want a role where you can see the difference you make in people’s lives and communities, we’d love to hear from you.
