This is a unique opportunity to play a central role in a national youth-focused initiative that makes a real difference.

Working part-time (22.5 hours per week) in a hybrid role based out of our Head Office, you’ll support our network of Outreach Workers across the UK, build partnerships with youth organisations, and help professionals feel confident sharing the Fearless message.

If you are driven by the belief that everyone deserves the chance to rebuild their life, this is your opportunity to play a pivotal role in transforming that belief into reality. We are looking for an Assertive Outreach Worker to join us (on an up to 12 months maternity cover), stepping into a position that blends leadership, creativity and direct impact.

You will cultivate strong partnerships with local agencies, from statutory services to specialist providers, ensuring no opportunity for progress is missed. You will also play a crucial role in assessing needs, identifying risks and maintaining accurate, meaningful records that help shape the support we provide. This is not just a chance to change lives on an individual level, but to be part of a national project pioneering new techniques to improve outcomes for people facing complex challenges around substance use.

This role will immerse you in innovative practice, expose you to expert collaboration, and offer opportunities to develop your skills and experience in ways that can shape your career for years to come.

• Experience working as part of a multi-agency partnership to address complex problems and bring about positive change.
• Familiarity with relevant housing, health and social justice legislation, policy and best practice relevant to systems change and people with multiple needs.
• A good and current understanding of safeguarding issues and procedures.

From supporting people in crisis to helping people take the final steps towards independence and employment, we make a difference to 12,000 lives every year across all 32 boroughs.

We offer you more than a job; we offer you a chance to be part of a compassionate, driven team that's committed to making a real difference in people's lives. You'll have the opportunity to lead, co-create, and inspire change while enjoying a collaborative, growth-oriented environment.

Join us in creating a brighter, more hopeful future for individuals in need.
