Support service manager jobs
This is an exciting opportunity for someone with excellent strategic, analytical and leadership skills to join Impetus as an Investment Director and support us in our mission to transform the lives of young people.
The Investment Director (ID) is a key member of the Investment Team, playing a leading role in identifying, assessing, and supporting portfolio partner charities and other non-profit organisations to deepen their impact and scale their outcomes.

About the role
Community Services at The Passage are delivered from our Resource Centre in Victoria, which provides a single, accessible entry point for people experiencing or at risk of homelessness.

Following assessment, Community Services deliver a range of specialist and preventative interventions, including rapid rehousing for those at imminent risk of homelessness, advice and advocacy, employment and skills support, housing-related casework delivered in partnership with the local authority, and assertive engagement for people less able to access services independently.

Your role will involve:
- Risk Management: Completing and regularly updating risk assessments to ensure the safety of tenants, the community, and yourself.

- Team Collaboration: Providing “roving” support to colleagues and assisting at other schemes when required to ensure continuity of service.
- Holistic Support Planning: Co producing personalised support plans with tenants, setting clear and measurable goals to strengthen housing stability and overall wellbeing.
What we’re looking for
- Strong communication skills with the ability to explain complex housing information clearly to a diverse tenant group, including individuals and families.
- Ability to travel independently to tenants’ homes as part of regular support delivery.
- Experience in housing, social care or community support (desirable but not essential – full training provided for the right candidate).
- High proficiency in Microsoft Office 365 and digital case management systems, with confident report writing skills.
- Excellent people skills and the ability to build rapport while maintaining professional boundaries.
- A collaborative, “can do” attitude with a willingness to support other schemes and colleagues during busy periods.
