Project support jobs

About role:

Step into a role where your work matters from the moment you walk through the door. As a Project Worker at our Harrow Road Assessment Hub in Westminster, you’ll be part of a fast-paced, highly skilled team supporting people taking their first steps away from rough sleeping and towards safety, stability and the right next move. Westminster has some of the highest levels of rough sleeping in the UK, and this short-stay service offers intensive, person-centred support to people who may be facing crisis, multiple disadvantage and limited routes into accommodation.

No two days will look the same. You’ll carry out assessments, build trusting relationships, create and review support plans, manage risk, and help people navigate real barriers such as health needs, immigration, welfare benefits, substance use, mental health and access to housing. You’ll work closely with outreach teams, local authorities, health services and other partners to support people into safe, appropriate accommodation, whether that means reconnecting them with services in another area or helping them move forward into longer-term support.

At Single Homeless Project, we invest in people who want to grow. This role offers a brilliant opportunity to build frontline experience, develop your skills in trauma-informed support and multi-agency working, and progress within a charity that is serious about ending homelessness. If you’re looking for a role that will challenge you, stretch you and give you a real sense of purpose, this is a place to start something meaningful.

About you:

• You’re someone who can meet people where they are, build trust without judgement, and bring warmth, patience and purpose to people who may have been let down by services before.
• You have experience supporting people facing homelessness, multiple disadvantage, trauma, mental health needs, substance use or other barriers to safety and stability.
• You stay steady in busy, unpredictable environments — able to think on your feet, manage risk, prioritise well and keep people at the centre of every decision.
• You communicate with care and confidence, whether you’re writing clear case notes, working with partners, or having honest conversations with clients about their next steps.
• You’re ready to work flexibly across early, late and weekend shifts on a rota, bringing reliability, energy and compassion to a service where every day can make a difference.

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.

About the role:

At the heart of Camden’s mission to end rough sleeping, we are recruiting Project Workers across two short-stay accommodation services, with one role based at Gray’s Inn Road and one role based at the Rough Sleepers Hub Assessment Centre at 165 King’s Cross Road. Both services support people experiencing rough sleeping to move away from the streets and towards safe, sustainable housing, but each plays a slightly different role in that journey.

Gray’s Inn Road provides short-stay accommodation for 16 people, usually for three to six months. Funded by the Department of Levelling Up, Housing and Communities and the Greater London Authority, and delivered in partnership with One Housing Group and Camden Council, the service offers focused, trauma-informed support for people facing overlapping challenges including homelessness, poor physical and mental health, substance use, trauma and contact with the criminal justice system. As a Project Worker, you’ll hold a caseload, complete in-depth assessments, build tailored support plans and work alongside each person to develop practical life skills, confidence and clear pathways into longer-term housing and independence.

At 165 King’s Cross Road, the Rough Sleepers Hub Assessment Centre provides 16 beds through a shorter, assessment-led model, with planned move-on typically within 28 days. This is a fast-paced service focused on momentum, opportunity and the right next step. You’ll carry out meaningful assessments, respond to complex situations, create personalised support plans and offer practical, hands-on support around housing pathways, wellbeing, daily living skills and opportunities to access training or employment.

Whichever service you join, you’ll work in a psychologically informed and trauma-aware environment, alongside partners including Camden Routes off the Streets, Inroads, Connect Forward and the Adult Pathway. You’ll also contribute to the safe and effective running of the service, while being supported through reflective practice, high-quality training and clear development opportunities. Most importantly, you’ll be part of a team that believes rough sleeping should be rare, brief and not repeated, and that every person deserves the chance to move forward with confidence and hope.

About you:

• You build trust quickly and support people facing multiple disadvantage to set goals, take control and move forward at their own pace
• You stay calm under pressure and respond confidently to crisis, making safe, thoughtful decisions in complex situations
• You understand how to maximise income and financial stability, helping clients navigate benefits, rent and budgeting
• You work with clear, professional boundaries and bring a trauma informed, non-judgemental and strengths-based approach to every interaction
• You’re organised and proactive, able to manage a varied workload, prioritise what matters and adapt to a rota including evenings and weekends

About the role:

This is your chance to begin a career that changes lives – starting with your own. At Single Homeless Project (SHP), we believe in developing new talent and giving you everything you need to thrive in the homelessness sector.

You will be part of a mission that helps people across London – in Lewisham, Camden, Islington and Leyton – move from crisis to stability and towards a life they can truly enjoy. From day one, you will be supported by experienced colleagues and immersed in a training programme designed to give you the skills, confidence and knowledge to succeed.

As a Trainee Project Worker/Young Person's Worker, you will be based within a project team, working directly with clients or young people to build trust, create safety and support meaningful progress. You will help people settle into the service, engage with support, develop practical life skills, manage day-to-day challenges and take steps towards greater independence. Whether you are supporting adults or young people, you will play an important role in creating a consistent, encouraging environment where people feel listened to, respected and able to move forward.

As a Trainee Floating Support Worker, you will travel across London to meet clients in their homes and communities, tackling housing issues, supporting health and wellbeing, and helping them achieve personal goals. The work is varied, fast-paced and deeply rewarding, with every shift – whether early mornings, late evenings, weekends or bank holidays – bringing the chance to see real change happen.

In return, you will be part of a comprehensive and engaging Trainee Programme, with support around you from day one. You will learn through trainee-specific workshops, formal training, reflective practice, service visits and hands-on experience alongside knowledgeable colleagues across SHP. Over the course of the traineeship, which usually runs for up to 9 months with the possibility of fast-track at 6 months, you will build skills in areas such as housing, benefits, mental health, safeguarding and recovery-focused support. As your confidence and practice grows, your salary will increase at six and nine months, recognising your development and achievements as you build a meaningful career helping people move from homelessness and crisis towards safety, stability and independence.

*We are seeking to recruit a group of trainees to form a cohort starting between August - September. 

About you:

• You do not need previous experience in homelessness, supported housing or a formal support role — what matters is your passion for people, your values, and the transferable skills you bring from your work, study or life experience.
• You can build trust with others, listen without judgement and bring patience, empathy and consistency to people who may be facing complex challenges.
• You are curious, motivated and ready to learn — open to feedback, willing to ask questions, and excited to build your confidence through training, teamwork and hands-on experience.
• You bring energy, creativity and a problem-solving mindset, with the confidence to encourage people to recognise their strengths and take positive steps towards the life they want.
• You believe people deserve to be treated with dignity, fairness and respect, and you want to be part of work that helps clients feel safer, more hopeful and more in control of their future.
