Why this role exists
At YMCA Leicestershire, we believe that having a safe place to live can change a life, but only when its paired with kindness, trust and the right support.
Many of the young people we work with have experienced homelessness, instability, trauma or displacement. Some are finding independence for the first time, others are re-building their confidence and sense of security.
The Housing Officer role exists to ensure young people are never doing that alone.
As a Housing Officer at YMCA Leicestershire, you’ll play a vital part in creating homes that feel safe, respectful and empowering, while helping young people move forward at their own pace.
About the Housing Officer role
As a Housing Officer, you’ll support young people living in our Move-On and Unaccompanied Asylum-Seeking Children (UASC) accommodation. The Housing Officer role combines practical housing management with relationship-based support.

- Supporting young people to settle into their homes
- Providing structured housing-related support (including more intensive support within the UASC provision)
- Managing housing responsibilities such as rent, behaviour, property standards and safeguarding
- Supporting access to education, training, employment and wider services
- Building trusting relationships while maintaining clear professional boundaries
- closely with colleagues and partner agencies to achieve positive outcomes
You will be part of a supportive Housing Officer team where reflection, supervision and wellbeing are built into how we work, not as an afterthought.
An enhanced DBS check is required as part of our safer recruitment process.

- Understands that behaviour often comes from experience
- Can be warm and human while holding clear professional boundaries

- Experience supporting young people or adults in a people focussed role
- A Level 3 qualification in Housing, Youth & Community, Social Work, Coaching or a related field (or a willingness to work towards this)
- Confidence working alongside other professionals and agencies
- Emotional resilience, flexibility and good judgement

Because people matter here, including the people who work here.
We are a values-led charity supporting young people aged 16-25 through housing, care, wellbeing, sport and culture (including the Y Theatre, Leicester’s oldest theatre).
People chose to work here because:
- You are trusted to do meaningful work,
