About The Connection at St Martin’s

We believe that no one should have to sleep rough on London’s streets, and that everyone should get the support they need to find a place to call home. We get to know every person we work with, understanding what they need to recover, helping them build on their strengths, and supporting them to find their own way home. Help us make London a city where no one sleeps rough on our streets.

London’s diversity is its biggest asset and we strive to ensure our workforce reflects London’s diversity at all levels. We welcome applications from everyone regardless of age, gender, gender identity, gender expression, ethnicity, sexual orientation, faith or disability.

We particularly encourage applications from candidates with lived experience of homelessness who we believe are an essential asset in our sector.

We are committed to being an inclusive employer and welcome the opportunity to consider flexible working arrangements.

About the Role

Daylight Women’s Day Centre is an exciting new service providing a place of safety and support for women who are long term rough sleepers in London. We want to reach women who have experienced abuse, mental illness, addiction, poor physical health, unclear immigration status and homelessness.  Our support will improve their health and wellbeing and enable them to move away from the streets.

Daylight has been designed based on findings from the CHAIN rough sleeping data for London and the Women’s Rough Sleeping Census. This evidence highlights the importance of single gender services for women who hide from mainstream provision dominated by men.  Daylight will reflect the Connection Theory of Change, building relationships of trust with people who have no confidence in most health and social care services.   Therefore Trauma Informed Care lies at the heart of everything we do.

As part of our creative and committed team, you’ll play a key role in:

• Building trusting relationships with women facing multiple exclusion and who are rough sleeping in London.
• Understanding the needs of the women accessing Daylight, providing harm minimisation support, access to healthcare and treatment.
• Helping women to move into accommodation and away from the streets
• Developing strong working relationships with a wide range of partners, ensuring The Connection’s Daylight service is a highly respected part of the response to women’s rough sleeping in London
• Implementing this pioneering new service and sharing our learning with others

You will have experience in delivering psychologically, gender and culturally informed services to women who are experiencing street homelessness. You will be committed to embedding co-production in our service design and engaging volunteers in service delivery.

• Refer and signpost to additional support services where required.

2. Stakeholder and volunteer engagement

• Engage with stakeholders and partners to develop networks and identify job, training, education and work experience opportunities for clients.
• Support outreach initiatives by developing and maintaining relationships with partners (e.g. referral partners, training providers, employers and professional bodies)
• Advocate on behalf of clients to address specific barriers to employment or accreditation.
• Collaborate with colleagues responsible for employer and partner engagement to match clients to appropriate opportunities.
• Liaise with volunteers to source additional expertise and mentoring opportunities for clients.
• Represent Breaking Barriers at occasional events or meetings as required.

3. Monitoring, Reporting & Administration

• Maintain accurate, timely and detailed client records on the CRM system.
• Track and report on client progression against agreed milestones and KPIs.
• Ensure documentation and evidence are completed in line with reporting requirements.
• Complete enrolment and administrative processes efficiently.
• Support monitoring and evaluation processes to inform service improvement.

4. Cross-Organisational Collaboration & Integrated Working

• Work closely with colleagues across all functions to ensure seamless client journeys, aligning support, avoiding duplication and maintaining clarity of progression plans.
• Share knowledge of sector pathways, labour market developments and client trends to inform service development and team learning.
• Contribute to service development as the service redesign evolves. 
• Participate actively in team meetings, case reviews, reflective practice sessions, appraisals and inductions, contributing to strong team relationships and continuous service improvement.
• Take advantage of training and development opportunities to build new skills and share knowledge across teams.

Senior Young Dads Worker (Neurodiverse)

About NEYDL

North East Young Dads and Lads (NEYDL) was founded in 2017 and has grown rapidly to become one of the UK’s most recognised organisations supporting young dads, men aged 25 and under in a fathering role. Our vision is for young dads to be valued and supported as parents. In 2024/25 we supported 217 young dads directly and achieved 100% satisfaction among the young dads we work with.

We are a non-judgmental organisation built on mutual trust, respect and honesty. Many of our staff are young dads themselves or have lived experience relevant to the communities we serve.

About this role

We use the term ‘young dads’ to refer to young dads, expectant dads and non-birthing partners aged 25 and under. This includes people within this age bracket who self-identify as father figures, including kinship carers and non-birthing partners.

We use the term ‘neurodiverse’ as an inclusive term covering young dads who are autistic, have ADHD, dyslexia, dyspraxia or other forms of neurodivergence, whether formally diagnosed, self-identified or awaiting assessment. We recognise that neurodivergent young dads can face additional barriers in accessing parenting support, including in how services are structured, communicated and delivered, and that these barriers are often compounded by stigma, exclusion or a lack of appropriate adjustment.

This is a dedicated role to ensure neurodivergent young dads can access the high quality support NEYDL offers, and that our wider service offer is genuinely accessible to them. You will provide direct, adapted support to neurodivergent young dads, while also building NEYDL’s organisational understanding of how to work effectively and inclusively with this group.

What we are looking for

We are looking for a motivated and experienced worker with a genuine understanding of neurodivergence and its impact on young fathers, and the ability to adapt support, communication and activities accordingly. You will be a confident networker, able to build relationships with both young dads and the services and organisations that support neurodivergent people across the North East.

We particularly welcome applications from people with lived experience of neurodivergence, either personally or as a parent or carer of a neurodivergent child, and from people with lived experience of young fatherhood.

What we offer

NEYDL is a close, inclusive and supportive team that actively invests in the development of its staff. We are a non-judgmental organisation built on mutual trust, respect and honesty. If you join us, you will be part of a team that genuinely believes in what it does.

In addition, we offer:

• 7.2 weeks’ annual leave per year (pro rata), inclusive of statutory and public holidays

• 5% employer pension contribution

• A flexible hybrid working arrangement

• Regular supervision and fortnightly team meetings

• Funded professional development and training

• Mileage paid at 55p per mile for business travel

How to apply

To apply, please send your CV (no more than four pages, including two references who can be contacted if successful) and either:

• A covering letter of no more than two sides of A4 (Arial, size 12)

• Or a video of no more than four minutes

In your application, please address:

• What excites you most about this role and how it connects to your skills and experience, bearing in mind the person specification

• What relevant lived experience you would bring to this role

• What experience of engaging with neurodivergent young people, families or communities you would bring to this role

Applications must be received by midnight, Sunday 16 August. 

Shortlisting: 17 & 18 August. Interviews: Friday 21 August.

NEYDL is committed to equity, diversity and inclusion. We welcome applications from all backgrounds and particularly encourage applications from people with lived experience relevant to the communities we serve.
