Safer Recruitment

Depaul UK is committed to fair and inclusive recruitment, and we welcome applications from people of all backgrounds. If a role requires it under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975, we will carry out the appropriate Disclosure & Barring Service (DBS) check.

About Depaul UK

In the 1980s, high unemployment and steep inflation was contributing to a shocking rise in youth homelessness across London. Thousands of young people were sleeping rough every night, with many areas notoriously dubbed “cardboard cities” due to the visible rise in street homelessness. Appalled by the scenes playing out across the capital, a group of people came together to tackle the challenge head on. Led by Cardinal Basil Hume and Mark McGreevy OBE, in 1989 Depaul UK was born.

What began as a single housing project in North London soon expanded across London, Greater Manchester and the North East of England. Today, Depaul UK provides accommodation, prevention and support services to thousands of marginalised young people across the UK each year.

As our name suggests, the work of Depaul UK has been inspired by St. Vincent de Paul – a man who devoted his life to helping vast numbers of people throughout the 17th century. St. Vincent de Paul’s belief in the intrinsic worth of all people and his commitment to taking bold action remain central to our values today. Depaul UK now forms part of a family of Depaul charities around the world. We each focus on the specific challenges in our own countries, but we’re united by our shared values and mission to end homelessness.

About the Role

The Senior Trust Officer is responsible for securing and managing significant income from charitable trusts and corporate partners to sustain and grow the Refugee Council’s services and advocacy work with and for refugees and people seeking asylum. Managing a portfolio of high-value trust and corporate partner relationships (independently up to £250,000 and supporting the wider philanthropy team for applications over £250,000), the role prepares compelling applications, pitches and reports, cultivates long-term partnerships, and ensures timely stewardship that reflects the organisation's impact and values.

You'll be a skilled relationship builder, confident communicator and collaborative partner, comfortable working across communities, charities and healthcare settings. We particularly welcome applications from candidates with lived experience of cancer and individuals from the Global Majority.

• Build and maintain relationships with Global Majority communities and partner organisations.
• Recruit and support young people and families to participate in engagement activities.
• Deliver workshops, listening events and co-design sessions.

• Empathy and cultural sensitivity.
• Experience engaging communities and supporting participation or co-production.
• Good organisational skills and ability to manage competing priorities.
• Confidence gathering, analysing and communicating insights.

About the role: 

A front door is not the finish line. For people moving on from rough sleeping, accommodation can be the first real point of safety in years — but keeping it, trusting support and preparing for independent housing takes skill, patience and persistence.

As Lead Support Worker in our Rough Sleeping Accommodation Programme, you will support people accepted into RSAP move on accommodation to settle, sustain their tenancy and build the confidence, skills and connections they need to move forward. You will work with people who may be navigating trauma, poor mental health, substance use, offending histories, isolation or long periods of exclusion from services, offering support that is practical, consistent and rooted in their strengths.

You will take a lead role in referrals and assessments, develop high quality support and risk management plans, and work closely with housing, health, social care, criminal justice, substance use, mental health and community partners. From helping someone manage rent, bills and repairs, to advocating when systems become a barrier, you will be part of turning accommodation into a stable platform for longer term independence.

This is a role for someone who can combine warmth with tenacity. You will need to build trust, hold boundaries, stay calm when progress is uneven, and bring creative energy to complex situations. In return, Single Homeless Project (SHP)  will support you to keep developing your practice, deepen your knowledge and grow your career in a values-led organisation committed to ending homelessness.

About you:

• You know that ending rough sleeping takes more than a housing offer — and you bring the patience, skill and persistence to help people turn accommodation into something safe, stable and lasting.
• You can build trust with people who may have every reason to be wary of services, using consistency, honesty and clear boundaries to keep support moving forward.
• You understand how trauma, mental health, substance use, offending, poverty and exclusion can shape someone’s choices, risks and relationship with support.
• You are confident turning complex needs into clear action, from assessments and support plans to risk management, case notes and practical housing sustainment work.
• You are a strong advocate and creative problem solver, able to work with partners, challenge barriers and keep pushing for progress when systems are difficult to navigate.

About us:

We’re London’s leading homelessness charity – and we get things done.

In a city where hundreds are forced into homelessness every day, our work has never been more needed or more challenging. And we’re not shying away. We’re rolling up our sleeves to make change and helping over 10,000 Londoners every year. We prevent homelessness, provide safe places to live and give people the opportunity to rebuild their lives and transform their futures. And we never give up. 

We’re here for Londoners wherever they are on their journey. We start with trust, building relationships that help people feel safe, supported, and ready to move forward. Every day, we put people first in everything we do, challenging injustice and barriers that keep people from the safety, stability and opportunity they deserve. We stand alongside people as they rebuild and shape a future that feels their own. 

Joining Single Homeless Project means joining a team that’s bold, compassionate and determined to do better for the people we support and for each other. 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.

• Contribute to the growth and development of the service by identifying and delivering new service opportunities, leading improvement initiatives, supporting business development, and deputising for the Practice Manager when required.

This is a hybrid role, primarily home-based with occasional travel for training, team meetings and service-related activities.
