About the role:
Every woman deserves to feel safe where she lives — especially at night.
Our Camden Women’s Complex Needs Services provide accommodation and support for women who have experienced homelessness, trauma, Violence Against Women and Girls, and multiple disadvantage. Many of the women we support have lived through unsafe relationships, instability, exclusion, and services that have not always felt safe, consistent or trustworthy. This role is about helping to change that.
As a Night Concierge, you will be a calm, steady and reassuring presence in the service overnight, helping to create an environment where women can rest, recover and feel secure in their accommodation. You will be the first point of contact during the night, responding to residents with warmth, respect and clear boundaries, while helping to maintain the safety, dignity and stability of the building.
Your night to night work will include managing access to the service, carrying out regular building checks, responding to incidents or emergencies, reporting repairs or safety concerns, and escalating risks where needed. You will also support women with immediate practical or wellbeing needs overnight, using active listening, de-escalation skills and a trauma-informed approach to respond calmly and proportionately when someone is distressed, anxious or in crisis.
This is not a full casework role, but your work will make a real difference to the women living in the service. The way you record concerns, share information and provide clear handovers will help the wider team respond to risk, maintain continuity of support and ensure women continue to feel safe, respected and held. You will also be joining SHP at an exciting time, with access to training, reflective practice and development opportunities to support your confidence, learning and longer term career progression.
We are ideally looking for one person who can work all three required nights (Saturday, Sunday and Monday 8pm-8:30am) but we would be open to considering a job share for the right candidates.
**This role is open to women only. This is an occupational requirement under Schedule 9, Part 1 of the Equality Act 2010 due to the nature of the service and the needs of the women we support.
About you:
- You understand why women-only, trauma-informed and gender-informed services matter, and you bring empathy, steadiness and respect to your work with women who may have experienced homelessness, domestic abuse, exploitation, trauma or other forms of harm.
- You are calm, alert and confident when working overnight, including when responding to distress, conflict, incidents or emergencies. You know how to hold boundaries without becoming cold or punitive.
- You communicate clearly and respectfully, with good listening and de-escalation skills, and you can build professional relationships that help residents feel safe while maintaining the expectations of the service.
- You can work independently, use sound judgement and know when to act, monitor or escalate concerns, including safeguarding, health and safety, building security or welfare concerns.
- You are organised and reliable, with the written and IT skills needed to record incidents, resident contact, actions taken and handover information clearly, accurately and in line with confidentiality and data protection requirements.

About the role:
For someone moving away from street homelessness, having a home can be life-changing — but keeping that home can take the right support at the right moment. TST North works with people in social housing across North, West and East London, helping them build stability, independence and confidence in their own home.
As a Tenancy Rescue Worker, you’ll step in when someone’s tenancy, safety or wellbeing is at risk. Your day-to-day work will include responding to internal referrals, visiting clients in their homes, assessing risk and need, co-producing support and safety plans, and taking practical action around issues such as arrears, debts, benefits, anti-social behaviour, safeguarding concerns, poor health, substance use, domestic abuse or social isolation.
You’ll work closely with clients, TST colleagues, housing providers, local authorities and specialist services to prevent situations from escalating and help people stay safely housed. This could mean advocating with a landlord, helping someone access health or welfare support, coordinating a multi-agency response, supporting a client to understand their tenancy rights and responsibilities, or helping rebuild trust where services have not always felt safe or reliable.
This is a new role in TST North, so you’ll also help shape how the service responds when people are at greatest risk of losing the stability they have worked hard to build. You’ll bring calm, skilled intervention, strong partnership working and a real belief that people should not be left to fall back into homelessness when the right support could help them stay safely housed.
About You:
- You know how much a stable home can change someone’s future, and you bring the skill, patience and belief needed to help people protect it.
- You’re confident working with people experiencing multiple disadvantage, using trauma-informed, strengths-based support to build trust, reduce risk and create practical next steps.
- You can respond calmly when things are escalating, making sound decisions around safeguarding, tenancy risk, arrears, wellbeing concerns or crisis situations.
- You understand the realities of tenancy sustainment, housing rights, financial pressure and partnership working — and you know how to turn that knowledge into action for clients.
- You’re reflective, collaborative and solutions-focused, with the confidence to help shape a new role and strengthen how TST supports people to stay safely housed.
About us:
We’re London’s leading homelessness charity – and we get things done.
In a city where hundreds are forced into homelessness every day, our work has never been more needed or more challenging. And we’re not shying away. We’re rolling up our sleeves to make change and helping over 10,000 Londoners every year. We prevent homelessness, provide safe places to live and give people the opportunity to rebuild their lives and transform their futures. And we never give up.
We’re here for Londoners wherever they are on their journey. We start with trust, building relationships that help people feel safe, supported, and ready to move forward. Every day, we put people first in everything we do, challenging injustice and barriers that keep people from the safety, stability and opportunity they deserve. We stand alongside people as they rebuild and shape a future that feels their own.
Joining Single Homeless Project means joining a team that’s bold, compassionate and determined to do better for the people we support and for each other. You’ll work alongside colleagues with lived experience, in a space that’s trans-inclusive, disability-friendly, and actively striving to be anti-oppressive and equitable.
We’re not perfect, but we’re real. We listen. We learn. And we push forward, together. Because this isn’t just a job. It’s a chance to lead with empathy, spark change, and help build a London where no one is left behind.
