**An opportunity to work & stay at our Hummingbird Support House!**

We’re looking for a compassionate and experienced Key Support Worker to be part of Hummingbird Homes—a unique new model helping young people transition from care to independent living.

Background:

At Handcrafted, we work with a range of vulnerable people, including care leavers. Their stories and experiences have helped us to recognise that there is a gap in provision from 16+, where transitioning into independent living is either an overly support-intensive time or very isolating. We have created a new model of support for those transitioning from care to independent living, bridging a critical gap in services.

Our New Approach:

To set up the Hummingbird Community, we have purchased five houses that are all near each other. Four of these will be used as supported housing for children 16+ transitioning out of the care system, and one of them will serve as a dedicated "Support House". 

This house will have a central community space for the young people, and it's a home where you can stay nearby whilst working, on-call, or between shifts, for as long as you are employed by Handcrafted.

The communal area downstairs will be the base for spending time together and providing life skills training alongside the wider team.

You would have your own private space upstairs for when you stay at the Support House.

Your Impact:

The heart of Hummingbird Homes is to offer children in care a sense of normality and stability. We aim to create a gentler transition into adulthood and independent living by fostering an environment of belonging and community through regular social activities and a family-like atmosphere. 

As a Key Support Worker, your role would be central to this mission—forming meaningful relationships with young people and ensuring that each young person receives the guidance and support they need to take their next steps with confidence.

To do so effectively will require the post-holder to lead a team charged with building on the success of our Regeneration and Enterprise activities, of recent years, and ensuring the learning from these is applied in the development of future initiatives and partnerships. With hundreds of churches and almost as many creative and enterprising ideas, the job of scrutinising these and working out how we can identify and support the most promising is a challenging and exciting task.

We are looking for a confident and credible leader, with the ability to inspire trust and work collaboratively to bring a strong commercial focus to the Trust’s work, ensuring that initiatives and partnerships are robustly and effectively developed and managed. You will be working closely with colleagues across the Trust to help embed an enterprising culture where ideas are encouraged and their viability assessed openly, robustly, and collaboratively.

The role will support the delivery of existing Regeneration and Enterprise initiatives and partnerships across our estate, in addition to supporting new initiatives and partnership opportunities that we implement. You will lead our internal processes and reporting, to identify and scrutinise the most promising of these opportunities, identified by the wider team. You will bring your expertise, and the resources of your team, to bear in assisting in the development, scrutiny and delivery of these, reviewing and monitoring their commercial performance.

This role will play a key role in capitalising on the successes of the Trust’s longstanding Regeneration programme, which has undertaken pioneering Regeneration projects which have addressed some of our most pressing conservation needs, had wide-ranging wider impacts, and developed new operating models for some of the churches in our care. In addition, it encompasses the work undertaken to develop new commercial income opportunities. Examples are our groundbreaking Champing™ initiative, as well as others such as filming, and other commercial partnerships, including for example those involved in the Van Gogh Immersive Experience, at our church at All Saint’s (Leicester).
