Residents live independently within shared accommodation, supported to achieve their recovery goals rather than receiving day-to-day personal care.

Your key responsibilities will include

• Managing the day-to-day operation of TACT's supported housing service

• Leading, supervising and developing a team of Housing Workers and volunteers

• Overseeing referrals, assessments, sign-ups, move on, warnings and notices

• Supporting residents to sustain tenancies, maximise income and achieve recovery goals

• Managing occupancy, voids, rent accounts, compliance and property standards

• Responding to safeguarding concerns, incidents and complex resident situations

• Working closely with Y Housing, local authorities, treatment providers and partner agencies

• Producing reports, performance information and service data to support continuous improvement

If you have these essential skills:

• Experience of supported housing, housing-related support, tenancy sustainment or supported accommodation services

• Experience supporting adults affected by addiction, mental health difficulties or other complex social needs

• Relevant Level 4 Housing qualification (or you’re willing and able to start this by October 2026)

• Strong understanding of safeguarding, risk management and professional boundaries

Ability to remain calm, resilient and professional when managing challenging situations

• Excellent communication, organisational and leadership skills

• Ability to build genuine, trusting relationships whilst maintaining accountability and boundaries

• Good IT skills and experience maintaining accurate records

We'd love it you also have:

• Relevant lived experience of addiction recovery, mental health difficulties or other complex social needs

• Experience supervising, coordinating or line managing staff, volunteers or placements

• Other housing, health and social care or similar qualifications or training

About the role:

Housing First changes what is possible for people who have been shut out, moved on and let down for too long.

Single Homeless Project's (SHP’s) Camden Housing First service is expanding, and we’re looking for a passionate and skilled worker to join an innovative team supporting people with long histories of rough sleeping, multiple exclusion and co-occurring needs. This includes a new and important focus on supporting couples who have been rough sleeping and will be accommodated separately in their own self-contained flats, while receiving intensive, relational and trauma-informed support.

Based from King’s Cross, you’ll work across the community and in people’s homes, carrying a small caseload so you can offer flexible, persistent and person-centred support that is shaped around each person’s strengths, safety, needs and goals. You’ll build trust with people who may have had difficult experiences of services, working at their pace while keeping a strong focus on housing sustainment, wellbeing, risk, choice and recovery.

You won’t be doing this work alone. You’ll be part of a multidisciplinary team and will work closely with statutory services, housing partners and specialist colleagues including health, psychology, Solace, occupational therapy and perpetrator support. With safety at the heart of the work, you’ll play a key role in supporting people where relationships, trauma, exploitation, abuse or external risk may be part of their lives. At SHP, you’ll also have access to learning, reflective practice and development opportunities that help you keep growing your skills while doing meaningful, complex and life-changing work.

About you:

• You have experience supporting people facing multiple disadvantage, including homelessness, trauma, mental ill health, substance use, contact with the criminal justice system or long-term exclusion from services.
• You know how to build trust with people who may be wary of services, using patience, consistency and creativity to keep people engaged without forcing change before they are ready.
• You understand the links between severe and multiple disadvantage, VAWG, coercion, abuse, exploitation and safety, and you can respond in a way that is trauma-informed, boundaried and safeguarding-focused.
• You are a confident advocate and communicator, able to work with partners, negotiate well, challenge when needed and keep the person’s voice at the centre.
• You are organised and self-sufficient in your day-to-day work, with the written, IT and recording skills needed to manage a caseload, update systems clearly and keep support plans moving.
