Glasgow’s Helping Heroes (GHH) is based in the Pearce Institute in Glasgow, and operates as a partnership between SSAFA and Glasgow City Council to be a trusted source of support for serving personnel, veterans and their families in their time of need.

About the role

As a Housing Advisor at GHH, you’ll play a vital role in delivering high-quality, person-centred housing support to veterans at risk of homelessness. You’ll provide advice, casework, and tenancy sustainment services, ensuring each client receives tailored support that meets their individual needs. From triaging new enquiries to managing a diverse caseload, you’ll be at the frontline of our mission to prevent homelessness and promote housing stability within the Armed Forces community.

You’ll work closely with local authorities, housing providers, and third-sector organisations to deliver joined-up support, particularly through the Council’s Housing Options approach. Your role will involve regular liaison with external stakeholders and you’ll represent GHH in forums that shape housing policy and practice. You’ll also contribute to the planning and delivery of housing-specific projects, helping to develop innovative solutions to complex housing challenges.

You will play a vital role in advocating for individuals and families experiencing homelessness, working to ensure their voices are heard and their rights upheld. This position requires a strong sense of social justice and a desire to see each case resolved positively. You will be expected to navigate Glasgow’s complex housing systems, challenge barriers to access, and collaborate with partners to deliver sustainable solutions that promote dignity, stability, and inclusion for those most in need.

This is a dynamic and rewarding role where no two days are the same. You’ll gain valuable experience in multi-agency working, safeguarding, and crisis intervention, while developing your skills in case management and project delivery. Whether you’re looking to deepen your housing expertise or take the next step in your career, this role offers a unique opportunity to make a lasting impact on the lives of those who’ve served.

About the team

GHH provides a single point of contact through a gateway model, enhancing local access to a wide range of services. These include support with financial matters, housing and homelessness, employability, and more. The team currently operates from their office in Govan, with the flexibility to work remotely one day per week. Outreach work is also carried out across the city to ensure wider community engagement.

The GHH team works closely with a broad network of internal and external partners, including local SSAFA branches and the Scottish Support Office, Citizens Advice Scotland, Veterans Housing Scotland, Erskine Veterans Village, Scottish Veterans Residences, and Defence Medical Welfare Services.

About you

This is a dynamic and rewarding position suited to someone who is proactive, compassionate, and committed to making a difference in the lives of the Armed Forces community. As a Housing Advisor, you’ll need to be motivated, enthusiastic, and creative, with strong organisational skills and the initiative to manage your own workload. Integrity and a commitment to doing the right thing are essential, as is the ability to anticipate challenges and think flexibly about how best to support our beneficiaries through housing-related issues.

While an understanding of the Armed Forces community and the wider third sector is desirable, what matters most is your ability to demonstrate the same outstanding qualities as our current team: strong communication skills, a collaborative spirit, and a genuine desire to support others. Your experience may come from professional or voluntary role in housing, homelessness prevention, or tenancy sustainment. Ideally, you will hold a CIH Level 3 qualification in Housing Practice.

You’ll manage a varied caseload, offering holistic, person-centred support across the housing and homelessness spectrum. This includes helping clients navigate housing options, liaising with local authorities and landlords, and supporting individuals through the eviction process. You’ll use your knowledge of housing pathways and tenancy rights to advocate effectively and ensure beneficiaries receive timely and appropriate support. Strong communication and problem-solving skills will be essential as you work with clients facing complex and often urgent housing challenges.

This role offers the chance to make a meaningful impact every day, helping veterans and their families secure safe, stable housing and rebuild their lives with dignity.

About SSAFA

SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity, is a trusted source of support for the Armed Forces community in their time of need. In 2024, our dedicated teams of volunteers and employees supported more than 54,000 people through a wide range of services1. This includes veterans, serving personnel (regulars and reserves), and their families—wherever and whenever they need us.

Diversity and Inclusion at SSAFA

SSAFA exists to support a diverse range of beneficiaries within the armed forces community, and we believe diversity within our teams is key to ensuring we can deliver our services effectively. We thrive on differences and believe it is critical to our success as a worldwide charity. SSAFA is proud to be an equal opportunity workplace that seeks to recruit, develop and retain the most talented people from a variety of backgrounds, perspectives, and skills. We therefore encourage applications from all genders, races, religions, ages and sexual orientations, as well as parents, veterans, people living with disabilities, and any other groups that could bring diverse perspectives to our business. 

SSAFA is committed to using the Disclosure & Barring Service to ensure we, as an employer, safeguard those we serve. 

No agencies please. Any unsolicited submissions from agencies will be accepted as a direct application from the candidate and no fees will be payable.

Closing date: Midnight on 31 August 2025. SSAFA reserves the right to close the vacancy early if we receive a high volume of suitable applications.

Mission Without Borders International (MWBI) is a Christian organisation working in six of the poorest countries in Eastern Europe, raising funds through twelve organizations.   

We are an international network of Christians who journey with the poor and marginalized, bringing practical and spiritual support with hope of a better future, enabling and encouraging people to lift themselves out of poverty, always sharing the hope that is found in Jesus Christ. We serve people without regard to their religion or ethnic background.

We want to see lives transformed, across generations, with hope for the future. Consequently, we work with families; with children, living in both communities and government institutions; and with the elderly, who are often the most isolated in poor communities. We journey with them over a five-year period to ensure we develop sustainable solutions and always in partnership with the local Church and a network of Coordinators who live in their local communities.

All of this with the goal of creating dashboards of data which provide real-time insights into the mission’s consolidated financial position and inform strategic decision-making. It is into this exciting new stage of the Mission that we seek a Director of Finance.

You will be a Christian, qualified accountant with proven experience as an international finance leader, having implemented new systems and worked across multiple jurisdictions.

You empower those with lived experience through your excellent interpersonal and communication skills and you are as comfortable working collaboratively as you are working independently.

Most importantly, you are dedicated to developing your skills to support others in the role and committed to Shelter’s purpose and values of equality and social inclusion.

Benefits

We offer a wide range of benefits, including 30 days of annual leave, enhanced family friendly policies, pension, and interest free travel loans. Our employees also have access to a tenancy deposit loan, payroll giving, cycle to work scheme, and an employee assistance programme.

Shelter helps millions of people every year struggling with bad housing or homelessness through our advice, support, and legal services. And we campaign to make sure that, one day, no one will have to turn to us for help. We’re here so no one has to fight bad housing or homelessness on their own.

About The Team

My Health Matters is a peer-led health inclusion project that works towards an inclusive health system where everyone has access to the health care they need, supporting people experiencing homelessness to address physical and mental health issues through the delivery of a Homeless Health Peer Advocacy service. We work to improve people’s confidence in using health services and increase their ability to access healthcare independently. The project brings together frontline health and social care services with those with lived experience supporting the co-production of solutions to health inequalities in Manchester.

Closing date: 14 September 2025

Interview date: 25 September 2025

Role 1 - Researcher or Senior Researcher (Permanent)

The Fabian Society is hiring a Researcher or Senior Researcher to lead on important, high-impact research projects, engaging directly with the government and stakeholders. You will:

• Develop project ideas and help secure funding from trusts and foundations, unions, charities, businesses and other funders.
• Write research and policy papers.
• Meet with leading politicians, advisors, sector experts and campaigners to discuss your research and debate new policy ideas.
• Write articles for leading media outlets and seek coverage and broadcast opportunities for your work.
• Represent the society and present your research at events and conferences.

We will look favourably on certain policy specialisms but we also value candidates who can become experts quickly. We are particularly interested in people who have expertise in housing, employment rights, social security, energy and climate, tax, public spending and macroeconomic policy. We also welcome applications from candidates with advanced quantitative skills. But if your expertise lies elsewhere, we will be happy to hear your plans.

We pride ourselves on providing strong progression routes for research staff. You will be trusted to work independently and take a leadership role, while also being supported and encouraged to develop. We are looking for staff who want to progress quickly, whether from Researcher to Senior Researcher, or from Senior Researcher to ‘Head of’ role.

Role 2 - Research Assistant (Fixed Term 12 Month Contract)

The Fabian Society is also hiring a Research Assistant on a 12-month development contract to support the new Fabian Housing Centre, as well as wider projects across the research team. 

You will undertake a wide range of activities, and contribute to the development of high-quality research reports, working closely with our Research Manager and Head of the Fabian Housing Centre.

We pride ourselves on providing opportunities for development and progression. This is a development role, which will involve both on- and off-the-job training opportunities. Following completion of the development role, we aim to offer a permanent role.

We’re looking for a motivated and relationship-driven Project Coordinator (Growth & Engagement) based across Greater Manchester to help us build and sustain impactful partnerships that will grow the reach and visibility of our Dog Champion Scheme.

At Street Paws, we believe that no one should be forced to choose between a safe place to stay and the pet they love. For people experiencing homelessness, a pet can be a vital lifeline — providing emotional support, a sense of safety, and unconditional companionship in the most difficult circumstances.

Sadly, most accommodation services do not allow pets, leaving people with an impossible decision: stay with their pet and remain homeless, or enter housing alone. At Street Paws, we work to remove that barrier through compassionate, practical action.

We support homeless pet owners by:

• Providing free veterinary care and preventative treatment

• Offering essentials like leads, coats, food, and bedding

• Training hostels to become pet-friendly through our Dog Champion Scheme

• Advocating for inclusive housing and service access

Since launching our Dog Champion Scheme, we’ve trained hundreds of hostel staff, supported dozens of services to welcome pets, and helped keep hundreds of people and animals safely together.

About the Role

This role is perfect for someone who is passionate about social justice, inclusion, and the human–animal bond — and who is confident in building connections with frontline organisations, community services, and supporters.

As Project Coordinator (Growth & Engagement), you’ll focus on building relationships with new hostels, expanding awareness of our work, and promoting our training programme and online learning platform. You'll also work with existing partners to make sure they feel supported and are continuing to deliver on their commitments to pet-friendly care.

Key Responsibilities

• Promote and grow the Dog Champion Scheme by identifying and engaging new partner hostels

• Build and maintain strong relationships with hostel staff, local authorities, housing providers, and referral networks

• Introduce and guide partners through the onboarding and training process

• Deliver clear, engaging communication about the benefits and expectations of becoming a pet-friendly service

• Support the delivery and monitoring of online training through our learning platform

• Collect feedback and stories from the hostels we work with to showcase impact and promote the scheme

• Represent Street Paws at local events, forums, and outreach opportunities across the North of England

• Work closely with the wider team to align delivery with Street Paws’ core values and strategic goals

• Support other areas of our work where needed, including volunteer engagement and public awareness campaigns

About You

We’re looking for someone who is:

• A great communicator – confident talking to frontline services, potential partners, and wider community networks

• Skilled at building trust and relationships with people from all backgrounds

• Organised and proactive – able to manage your own workload, travel when needed, and meet project goals

• Creative and people-focused, with an eye for spotting opportunities to grow and share our impact

• Committed to inclusion and compassionate support – you’ll be representing a charity that’s non-judgemental, trauma-informed, and rooted in dignity for all

Experience working in the charity, housing, or community sector is a plus, but not essential. What matters most is that you believe in our mission and want to be part of positive, person-centred change.

What We Offer

• A flexible, remote-working role with the opportunity to travel and meet partners across the region

• A supportive, values-led team environment

• Opportunities to grow with us, shape the role, and influence how we engage new partners

• The chance to make a tangible difference for people and pets who are often excluded from services

Applications close Friday 29th August.   Interviews will be held week commencing 8th September 2025
