Open Door North East (ODNE) is an Award Winning, values‑led charity supporting refugees, people seeking asylum and other vulnerable migrants across the Tees Valley.

Founded over 23 years ago from a local church’s desire to welcome people seeking sanctuary, ODNE has grown into an independent charity with 23 staff and around 40 volunteers, supporting more than 2,000 people each year through a range of services.

Open Door North East is seeking a compassionate, organised and practical Support Worker to join our Supported Accommodation team.

This role is based within ODNE‑managed homes, providing day‑to‑day housing‑related and practical support to people placed in our supported accommodation. Residents are living in rooms within ODNE properties and receive structured, relational support to help them stabilise, sustain their accommodation and move towards greater independence.

A core part of our work is the provision of ODNE‑managed supported accommodation. We currently manage 32 properties, providing safe, supported homes for newly recognised refugees and asylum seekers who are at risk of destitution or homelessness.
