Do you want to make a real difference in the lives of older and vulnerable people in our community? Are you compassionate, organised and driven by a desire to help people live safely and independently?

At WECHI, our purpose is to support older people to remain living comfortably and independently in their own homes for as long as they choose. If you are passionate about applying your skills to a meaningful cause, our Project Manager – Client (Caseworker) roles offer a unique opportunity to make a real impact, guided by our values of care, respect, integrity, and experise.

We currently have two opportunities to join our team, each providing the chance to support clients through practical, often life-changing housing interventions.

About the roles

Project Manager – Client (Permanent contract)

In this role, you will help ensure the smooth delivery of our project management services for older and vulnerable homeowners across Bristol. You’ll provide high-quality advice on housing, repairs and independent living, supporting clients to:

• repair or adapt their homes
• access essential works that enable safe hospital discharge
• explore suitable alternative housing options
• understand available funding routes

Working closely with our technical project managers, who diagnose defects, design and specify works, and oversee on-site delivery, you will guide clients through the process with clarity and confidence. Strong judgement, a proactive approach and an empathetic manner are essential, along with good organisational, numerical and IT skills.

Project Manager – Client (12-month fixed term – Making Space Project)

You will:

• coordinate and manage a caseload

• offer practical and emotional support with decluttering
• help clients make informed decisions about their home environment
• collaborate with colleagues and external partners

This is a deeply person-centred role requiring a trauma-informed, sustainable approach to reduce risks, improve wellbeing and support tenancy sustainment.

Who we’re looking for

Across both roles, we’re looking for someone who:

• is empathetic, patient and committed to supporting vulnerable people.
• can use sound judgement in sensitive or complex situations.
• is proactive, organised and confident communicating with a wide range of people.
• can build trust and rapport with clients facing difficult circumstances.
• works well within a collaborative, multidisciplinary team.

Experience supporting older or vulnerable people is highly desirable.
