At Hestia, we are guided by our core values and are dedicated to fostering an equitable, diverse, and inclusive organisation. Our mission is to empower individuals to rebuild their lives and achieve independence. Right now, we are looking for a Support Worker to play a pivotal role in our Complex Needs Service in Tower Hamlets.

Sounds great, what will I be doing?

The main purpose of the role is to prepare individuals to move on to independent living in the community. Service users may step down from the intensive support service to high, medium or lower needs before moving into the community. From the outset of an individual's tenancy the focus of the support is on preparing them for their

What do I need to bring with me?

You'll need to be able to demonstrate the core skills this role requires as well as match our values and mission. You don't have to tick all the boxes right away; the important thing is that you're willing to learn. We also value lived experience of the areas we support, so if you feel comfortable, please do mention this on your application.

You will bring a strong understanding of recovery principles and approaches, alongside experience supporting individuals with mental health and/or dual diagnosis needs. You will be confident working both independently and as part of a team, including supporting the induction of peer staff and volunteers, and collaborating with statutory services such as the NHS. You will have knowledge of mental health conditions, crisis management, and relevant legislation including Care Programme Approach (CPA) processes, with the ability to support individuals with dignity and respect. You will also demonstrate awareness of health and safety, strong IT, literacy and numeracy skills, and the ability to produce clear written communication. A solid understanding of safeguarding is essential, along with the flexibility to work shifts, including evenings, weekends, and bank holidays, to meet 24-hour service needs.

This is a truly exciting time to join the Fundraising Team. As Fauna & Flora continues to strengthen its global impact, we are investing in the systems, insight, and intelligence needed to support a more ambitious fundraising programme. Our work with donors is expanding rapidly, and the ability to identify new prospects, markets, and networks is becoming increasingly central to our success.

The Research Officer, External Insight & Private Sector will play a key role in supporting this growth. You will lead on identifying and qualifying new prospects, monitoring developments across philanthropic and private sector landscapes, and ensuring that Fauna & Flora is well-positioned to pursue emerging opportunities. Working closely with colleagues across the organisation, the role ensures that early-stage engagement is informed, targeted, and strategically aligned.

You will bring excellent research skills, sound judgement, and a disciplined approach to data, alongside the ability to translate insight into clear, practical recommendations. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys working in a fast-moving environment, is motivated by improving systems and understanding complex landscapes, and is keen to support an organisation delivering globally important work for people, nature, and climate.

You will be part of a small but expert Research & Insight function, working alongside the Research & Insight Manager and an existing Research & Insight Officer. Together, the function brings complementary regional, thematic, and donor‑type expertise, supporting colleagues across the full spectrum of prospect identification, qualification, and insight, and creating a collaborative environment in which this role can thrive.

In return, we offer the opportunity to work for a ground‑breaking organisation at the forefront of global conservation, with a generous pension contribution, attractive annual leave allowance, and life insurance.

Our offices are based in the David Attenborough Building in central Cambridge, within easy reach of historic buildings and museums, the River Cam, the central market, and a wide range of cafés and restaurants.
