GrowTH is a non-denominational Christian charity, which works in partnership with evangelical churches from a variety of backgrounds within the London Borough of Tower Hamlets.

GrowTH seeks to share God’s love with its homeless neighbours in word and deed. So, alongside receiving practical care and help, all GrowTH guests have the opportunity to hear the good news of Jesus and to explore the Christian faith, if they wish.

GrowTH, has four main projects that make up the charity’s activities. They are as follows:

• Night Shelter: provides volunteer-run winter shelter in Tower Hamlets from October to April each year. Homeless men and women are referred to GrowTH by local homeless agencies. Once accepted into the shelter, guests receive a warm welcome, a hot evening meal, a safe bed for the night, and breakfast in the morning. The resettlement support there provides every guest in the shelter with one-to-one support from GrowTH’s two Advocate Workers to help them move out of homelessness, with the aim of resettling them into stable accommodation. We accommodate up to 15 Guests in the Shelter each night, and typically shelter around 150 Guests each season.
• Housing: provides medium term (twelve-eighteen month) affordable move-on homes locally for some who have stayed in the shelter, or are referred in from other sources, in order to help them transition towards independence. Each Resident is provided with bespoke support towards their support needs by our Housing team. We currently have 31 residents across 12 flats.
• Day Centre: provides a safe space for guests to meet with the staff team for advocacy and support meetings. There will also be space for shelter guests to relax and ample opportunities for both staff and volunteer-led evangelistic events, as well as prayer ministry.
• Lazarus House: a community house project for male residents. The house provides an opportunity for men seeking a fresh start to confront deep rooted issues impacting their lives, within a safe, loving, disciplined and family environment. This is a key partnership with the local churches in which they provide discipleship for the Residents as well as fellowship, and GrowTH provide the practical support and housing.

About the role:

This is a leadership role with real weight — and real impact. As the Service Manager in our Shooters Hill service, you’ll lead an accommodation service supporting young people aged 16+ as they navigate housing, independence and what comes next. You’ll set the tone, hold the standards and champion a service that is safe, ambitious and unapologetically centred on young people’s strengths.

Your days will be a mix of strategy and presence. You’ll be visible in the service, backing your team to deliver consistent, high-quality, personalised support, while keeping a firm grip on housing management, safeguarding and performance. You’ll coach, challenge and develop staff to work confidently within a trauma-informed, psychologically informed environment — ensuring support is not only responsive, but genuinely empowering.

You’ll also be the connector. Working closely with local authorities, commissioners and partner agencies, you’ll make sure referrals are right, pathways are clear and move-on starts from day one. You’ll use insight, data and lived experience feedback to keep evolving the service — because standing still isn’t an option when young people are relying on us to get this right.

If you’re driven by high standards, believe young people deserve more than box-ticking support, and want to lead a service that helps them build skills, confidence and futures on their own terms — this is your moment.

About you:

• You’re an experienced manager who knows how to lead and develop staff across accommodation-based services, often spanning multiple sites.
• You bring a strong grasp of housing management, health & safety and safeguarding — and you don’t shy away from accountability.
• You’re confident working with young people facing complex challenges, using a trauma-informed, psychologically informed and strengths-based approach.
• You build credible, productive relationships with commissioners, local authorities and partners, and know how to represent a service with confidence and clarity.
• You lead with integrity, curiosity and courage — committed to equality, inclusion and creating spaces where both young people and staff can thrive.
