Safe house support worker jobs in London
How's your job search on our site?
About the role:
For someone trying to move forward after contact with the criminal justice system, safe housing can be the turning point that changes everything. As a Housing Advice Worker, you’ll be part of Single Homeless Project (SHP’s) Pan London Housing Advice and Interventions Service, delivered in partnership with St Mungo’s and the Ministry of Justice, helping people on probation find clearer, safer routes away from homelessness and housing crisis.
Based in Brent, with work connecting into designated London boroughs, you’ll work closely with Probation Services to support clients to sustain their current accommodation or secure new housing where needed. Day to day, you’ll hold a caseload, complete strengths-based assessments, explore housing, financial, employment and wider support needs, and build practical plans that turn pressure and uncertainty into clear next steps. You’ll also identify risks and safeguarding concerns, keep accurate case records, liaise with housing providers and specialist agencies, and work alongside partners such as probation and police to help people access accommodation and opportunities that are safe, realistic and sustainable.
This is a Monday to Friday role in a friendly, supportive and high-performing team that is serious about the difference good housing advice can make. At SHP, you’ll be supported to grow your knowledge of housing, homelessness and criminal justice practice, build confidence in multi-agency working, and develop your career in a values-led organisation where your work has real purpose every day.
About you:
- You understand that housing advice can be life-changing, and bring either experience in supported housing, floating support or a relevant qualification, alongside a working knowledge of housing legislation.
- You can hold your nerve when situations are complicated, emotionally charged or fast-moving, keeping people’s safety, choices and next steps at the centre.
- You know how to get things moving through strong partnership work, building the kind of relationships with agencies, services and professionals that open doors for clients.
- You care about delivering a service that feels human, purposeful and high-quality, where people are informed, respected and supported to take more control of their future.
- You’re organised, self-motivated and ready to manage a varied caseload, balancing competing priorities without losing sight of the person behind each case.

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.

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.

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.

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
