Job description

At Homeless Link, we believe that ending homelessness requires sector-wide high-quality practice, innovation and collaboration. As our Head of Innovation & Good Practice, you will play a pivotal role in helping the sector respond to new challenges, improve service quality and deliver better outcomes for people experiencing homelessness. You will lead our work to identify, develop and promote effective practice, ensuring that homelessness organisations have access to the knowledge, tools and support they need to deliver high-quality services. You will also help position Homeless Link as the leading source of expertise, learning and innovation for the sector.

This role offers an opportunity to influence practice at a national level while remaining connected to the realities of frontline delivery by Homeless Link members and the experiences of people affected by homelessness.

If you are a strategic leader who combines sector knowledge with curiosity, innovation and a commitment to continuous improvement, we would love to hear from you.

We are actively seeking to increase diversity within our organisation and would greatly welcome applications from people with lived experience of homelessness, from a black or minority ethnic background and/or with a disability.
