Job description

Rough Sleeping Outreach and Assessment Worker – £34,127 per annum
Lavender Hill, Clapham Junction (with work across Richmond and Wandsworth Boroughs)
Full time, 37.5 hours per week on a rota

Be part of something that changes lives.


Join SPEAR and help end homelessness across Richmond and Wandsworth. As a Rough Sleeping Outreach and Assessment Worker, you’ll play a vital role in our Street Outreach Service and the new 24-hour Assessment Centre. One night you could be out on the street engaging with people sleeping rough; the next day you might be welcoming someone to the centre, creating a support plan, and linking them to housing and health services.

What you’ll do

  • Carry out late-night street outreach and day-time reception shifts as part of a rota.
  • Build trusting relationships with people who are rough sleeping and help them move quickly into safe accommodation.
  • Provide trauma-informed, person-centred support, including assessments, personalised action plans and follow-on help to sustain tenancies.

-Work closely with partner agencies to connect clients to health, housing, and other specialist services.
-Keep accurate case notes and share information securely using CHAIN and InForm systems.

About you
You bring experience of working with vulnerable adults, ideally in homelessness or a related field, and you’re confident working late-night shifts. You can build rapport quickly, stay calm under pressure, and work well with partner agencies. Above all, you believe that homelessness should be rare, brief and non-recurring.

Why join SPEAR
We are a supportive, forward-thinking charity where staff are valued and encouraged to grow. You’ll have access to regular training and supervision, and a wide range of staff benefits, including:

  • Generous holiday – 26 days plus public holidays, rising by up to 5 extra days with length of service
  • Wellbeing & EAP – 24/7 Employee Assistance Programme with free counselling, money and legal advice
  • Health support – Occupational health service and free annual eye test (with contribution towards glasses if required)
  • Cycle to Work – Save on a new bike and accessories through salary sacrifice
  • Season ticket loan – Interest-free loan for annual travel passes
  • Moving house day – Extra day’s leave when you move home
  • Financial security – Life assurance (4× salary) and interest-free emergency staff loan
  • Family-friendly policies – Enhanced maternity and adoption pay, plus flexible working options
  • Career development – Ongoing training, learning and progression opportunities
  • Blue Light Card – Discounts across a wide range of shops, restaurants and services
