Are you looking for a new challenge? Are you interested in helping people who have experienced homelessness to rebuild their lives? 

As the Programme Coordinator for the brand new Wayfinder Programme you will be responsible for developing a new and innovative way of supporting people who have experienced homelessness, helping them to move on, sustain their tenancies and settle into their new community.

The Wayfinder Programme is a volunteer-led 1-2-1 relational support programme, so as Programme Coordinator you will recruit, train and support volunteers and match them with people who need a bit of extra support.

As the Coordinator, you will need to have some knowledge of housing as well as enthusiasm to work with and motivate volunteers, plus the ability to work in partnership with a range of other agencies and partners.

About the Wayfinder Programme 

Funded by the Benefact Trust, Wayfinder is a volunteer-led relational homelessness support programme.

As this project is funded primarily by a Christian funder, they are particularly interested in the role of volunteers from churches, however volunteers can come from any background, culture, faith, or no faith. Volunteers will tailor their support to the unique needs of each individual, for example offering support and guidance to overcome housing and finance, education and health and wellbeing issues.

The programme is being rolled out in three areas in England – Greater Manchester, Nottingham and Birmingham.
