YMCA DownsLink Group is the leading charity for children and young people across Sussex and Surrey. We offer safe homes, mental health support and trusted advice.

We believe that every child and young person has the right to be safe, heard and to shape their own future. We work alongside them to make that happen.

We are here for children and young people, many of whom face multiple challenges and need our support.

Our Values - we do what’s right, we work with heart, and we build real connections – guide us in all our actions.

Guildford Foyer provides 24/7 supported accommodation for up to 34 young people aged 16–25, many with complex needs, including unaccompanied asylum‑seeking young people. We use a trauma‑informed, psychologically informed approach to help residents build life skills, set goals, and move towards independent living. Our Support Workers, Night Workers and Bank Workers offer guidance around housing, budgeting, living skills, education, employment and community engagement. We adopt a trauma informed and psychologically informed approach to supporting our residents to help them build essential life skills, identify their goals and work towards aspirations so that they can move on to enjoy fully independent futures.

We are looking for a Housing Night Worker to join our team at Guildford Foyer. You will respond promptly to any reported incidents, accidents, or concerns, carrying out thorough checks and taking appropriate action to ensure the safety and wellbeing of everyone on site. You will also take a proactive approach to preventing anti‑social behaviour, working closely with support staff to maintain a positive environment. In addition, you will carry out one‑to‑one interventions with young people who may be experiencing a mental health crisis or who require medical assistance, ensuring they receive timely and appropriate support.

What you will be doing - this is more than a night shift role - it’s an opportunity to make a real difference, working as part of a dedicated team committed to helping young people grow and develop.

Main areas of responsibilities are:

Safety and security

• Provide a friendly, professional presence and ensure the building remains safe, secure and welcoming at night.
• Support resident wellbeing by upholding health and safety procedures, house rules and tenancy requirements.

• Log maintenance issues to ensure the building remains safe and well maintained.

General

• Work collaboratively on a four‑on, four‑off rota, providing consistent, non‑judgemental support overnight.
• Maintain a calm, professional approach and handle challenging situations effectively.
• Take part in ongoing training and reflective practice to support psychologically informed care.

This role involves lone working, so you will need to be confident in decision‑making and in following procedures. However, before joining the rota, you will have the opportunity to get to know the team and services, take part in a full induction, complete the required training, and undertake shadow shifts to ensure you feel confident, supported, and well prepared.

If you are enthusiastic about this opportunity but don’t meet every single requirement, we still encourage you to apply. Your skills and experiences may be more transferable than you think, and you could be exactly the person we are looking for.

About you - this is a dynamic role for someone passionate, empathetic and committed to young people’s development.

Experience and knowledge

• Experience in a customer‑facing role, staying calm and solutions‑focused during challenging situations.
• An understanding of the needs and experiences of young people and adults at risk.
• Awareness of trauma and the ability to work in a strengths‑based, compassionate way.
• Confidence in accurate record‑keeping, including incident logs and health and safety checks.
• Basic safeguarding knowledge and the ability to maintain professional boundaries (training provided).

Skills and abilities

• Clear verbal and written communication, with accurate handovers for day‑time colleagues.
• Strong interpersonal skills, able to build positive relationships.
• Comfortable lone‑working, using initiative, and working as part of a team.
• Competent IT skills, including Microsoft 365 and basic system navigation (training provided).
• Ability to de‑escalate situations and manage challenging behaviour calmly.
• You will bring an awareness of the challenges young people face and the ability to connect with them positively

• Oversee the development of scalable data models, reporting structures and analytics processes that provide clear actions

• Deliver high-quality, actionable dashboards, KPIs, and reporting frameworks that support decision-making at every level

• Work with external data engineering consultancies where appropriate to accelerate delivery

Setting Us Up for Long-Term Success

• Establish the data and analytics foundations that will support CALM's growth and scale 

• Create sustainable processes, documentation and ways of working that ensure capability and knowledge remain embedded beyond the life of the role

• Develop a practical forward-looking plan for data and analytics at CALM

• Champion data literacy across the organisation, building confidence and capability in the teams around you

Leading & Collaborating

• Lead and manage our Data Analyst, who will report directly into this role.

• Work closely and collaboratively with our Senior Insight Manager to ensure strong alignment between our Insight and Analytics functions

• Engage confidently with senior stakeholders including the CEO, COO and Senior Leadership

Experience

Essential

• Proven experience in a senior data or analytics role, with hands-on delivery experience

• Good understanding of data warehousing, data modelling and analytics best practices

• Strong technical skills across data modelling, SQL, Power BI and modern data platforms

• Experience working with cloud-based data platforms (ideally Microsoft Azure)

• Practical experience building and maturing analytics capabilities in a growing organisation

• Experience developing reporting frameworks, KPIs and performance measurement approaches

• Knowledge of web analytics tools such as GA4 and CRMs e.g. Salesforce

• A highly organised and structured approach, with strong attention to documentation and process design

• A collaborative working style and the ability to build strong relationships across a small, mission-driven team

• Experience managing and mentoring junior analysts
