We are looking for 2 Complex Caseworkers to join our Rough Sleeper team in Reading who provide intensive support to people with complex needs experiencing homelessness.

In both roles you will work collaboratively with the Rough Sleeper Navigator Coordinator and Outreach team as well as relevant partner agencies in Reading to deliver sustainable outcomes to clients.

• You’re typical working hours will be Monday – Friday, with flexibility to work outside of these hours at times to support the team through SWEP.

Even if you don’t think you match 100 % of the criteria, we would still like to hear from you as we value transferable skills. Potential can be equally as important as experience, so if you think you have what it takes, please do apply!

• If you have good communication skills, with the ability to network and build effective relationships with a variety of people,
• You should have a good working understanding of supporting vulnerable with complex needs, such as substance use, mental and physical health issues, and the ability to understand the difficulties they experience in accessing services that full meet their needs.
