Job description

Our Vacancy

As a Support Worker for the Young People’s Services at Peabody, you will play a vital role in helping young people live independently and thrive within their communities. This is a meaningful and rewarding position where you will support individuals who may be socially excluded, disabled, unwell, or homeless. Your work will directly contribute to their wellbeing, independence, and inclusion, ensuring they are empowered to lead fulfilling lives. You will be part of a team that values human rights, dignity, and respect, and you’ll be instrumental in helping young people overcome challenges and achieve their goals.

What you'll do
In this role, you will provide high-quality, person-centred support to young people in supported housing. Your day-to-day responsibilities will include conducting needs and risk assessments, developing and reviewing support plans, and offering practical assistance with daily living skills such as cooking, cleaning, shopping, and managing finances. You will work closely with each individual to help them build confidence, develop life skills, and work towards their personal goals. You’ll also support them in accessing community resources, sustaining their housing, and exploring future housing options. Your role will involve liaising with external agencies, attending team meetings and training, and ensuring accurate record-keeping. You’ll be a key part of a collaborative team, committed to safeguarding, promoting equality, and delivering excellent service in line with Peabody’s values and policies.

What you'll need

  • Experience supporting vulnerable people in the community or a supported living environment, either professionally or through volunteering
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to build positive relationships with young people and external partners
  • A compassionate, empathetic approach with a genuine desire to make a difference in people’s lives
  • Confidence to work independently (including lone working) and collaboratively as part of a team
  • Good IT literacy, including the use of Microsoft Office and data entry systems

Why join us?

When you join Peabody, you’re joining a team guided by our values, Be Kind, Do the Right Thing, Love New Ideas, Celebrate Diversity, Keep Our Promises, and Pull Together. We believe in creating a workplace where everyone feels supported, included, and empowered.

What You’ll Get

  • 25 days’ annual leave 
  • Flexible benefits including healthcare, dental, and discounts.
  • 4x Life Assurance and up to 10% pension contribution.
  • Professional development, including funded apprenticeships.
  • Two paid volunteering days each year.
  • Family-friendly policies and a supportive team culture.

Please read before applying:

This is a full-time, onsite role, and you’ll need to be available to work five days a week, including weekends and bank holidays. Shifts may include early mornings, evenings and sleep-ins so flexibility is key.

We’ll be reviewing applications and holding interviews on a rolling weekly basis, so please keep an eye on your inbox and phone - our team will be in touch to get you booked in!

Closing date: 12 March 2026

This role requires an enhanced DBS check.

If successful, you will be required to complete sleep-in shifts as part of your regular duties. 

Please note: Peabody is not a licensed UK sponsor, so we’re unable to offer visa sponsorship for this role.


Colleagues who are at risk of redundancy need to state this on their application as they will be given priority consideration above other applicants.

Please note, if you are currently on legacy Aldwyck or legacy Catalyst Terms & Conditions, and are successful in your application, you will automatically be transferred to the new Peabody Terms & Conditions. 

Additionally, if you move to a Peabody role on a secondment basis, your Terms & Conditions will not change.
