These two new roles will add capacity to our Outreach Support work, joining two colleagues who are currently supporting people to access private rented accommodation as part of the Refugee Homelessness Prevention Project across Greater Manchester.

This area of work is relatively new to Boaz, and is continuing after a successful pilot last year (a GMCA funded project, as part of their Refugee Welcome Programme). Through this pilot, we worked with over 200 people and supported 92 people to move into accommodation and sustain a tenancy. We saw referrals continue to rise last year, and know that this work is needed now more than ever.

The two new roles will involve working with single adults recently granted refugee status who have been assessed as having no priority need following a homelessness assessment and are rough sleeping, at risk of rough sleeping, or living in off-the-streets accommodation. The successful candidates will also work with families who have been granted refugee status and who are living in asylum hotels or temporary accommodation and need support to find onward accommodation. 

In accordance with the Christian ethos and values of the Boaz Trust, the Support Worker is responsible for participating in the successful delivery of a frontline support service working with people who are facing homelessness after being granted refugee status:

The post holder will:

• provide practical and holistic support to people with refugee status who are referred into the project (individuals and families)
• build positive and productive relationships with colleagues in local authorities, housing providers, landlords and voluntary sector organisations
• play a supportive and collaborative role working alongside the wider staff team.

We're looking for two candidates with:

• Experience working to support marginalised people from diverse backgrounds in a casework role in a housing or homelessness context
• Highly effective communication and interpersonal skills, including communicating with those whose first language is not English
• An empathetic and patient approach when working with people.

If this sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you!
