The role
The Engagement Manager leads the relational and safeguarding delivery of Lighthouse, ensuring the programme is experienced as a place of dignity, trust, and consistency for every participant. This role sits at the centre of the work - shaping how Lighthouse feels, how people are received, and how support is experienced in practice.
Lighthouse operates in a dynamic environment where participant needs, operational demands, and volunteer teams intersect daily. You will bring presence, judgement, and emotional intelligence to that space, maintaining strong relational consistency while responding thoughtfully and appropriately to what emerges in real time.
You will take ownership of participant engagement across the programme. This includes building trusted relationships, maintaining strong safeguarding practice, and supporting volunteers to engage in ways that are respectful, boundaried, and trauma-informed. Your role is to ensure Lighthouse is not only well run, but deeply human - a place where people feel seen, respected, and supported.
You will also play a central role in shaping how Lighthouse supports people beyond immediate engagement. By understanding participant journeys and needs, you will help strengthen pathways into stability, connection, and opportunity. This requires sound judgement, relational skill, and the ability to translate insight into practical support.
You will work closely with the Programme Manager to ensure Lighthouse remains both operationally strong and deeply responsive to the people it serves.
Key responsibilities
Participant engagement and presence
- Lead participant engagement across Lighthouse delivery
- Build consistent, trusted relationships with participants
- Maintain a visible, calm, and grounded presence during programme sessions
- Help ensure participants feel recognised, welcomed, and respected
Participant wellbeing and support
- Recognise emerging participant needs and respond appropriately
- Support participants to access information, services, and appropriate support
- Help maintain a safe, respectful, and inclusive programme environment
- Ensure participant experience remains consistent and well held
Safeguarding leadership
- Lead safeguarding practice across the programme
- Coordinate safeguarding processes, documentation, and follow-up
- Respond appropriately to safeguarding concerns and incidents
- Ensure safeguarding procedures and escalation pathways are consistently followed
- Exercise sound judgement in complex or sensitive situations
Volunteer support and guidance
- Support volunteers to engage confidently and appropriately with participants
- Provide guidance on boundaries, relational approaches, and safeguarding awareness
- Help create a volunteer culture that is consistent, compassionate, and well supported
- Ensure volunteers feel clear, confident, and supported in their roles
Partnerships, referrals, and pathways
- Build and maintain relationships with outreach teams, support services, and sector partners
- Coordinate referrals and connections to external services where appropriate
- Develop pathways into employment, training, and longer-term stability
- Liaise with employers and partner organisations connected to participant opportunities
- Strengthen the network of support available to participants beyond Lighthouse
Requirements
About you
This role requires someone who is grounded, perceptive, and confident taking responsibility within a complex, people-centred environment.
You will be able to build trust quickly while maintaining clear boundaries and professional consistency. You will bring a calm, thoughtful presence and be comfortable navigating emotionally complex situations with care and sound judgement.
You will likely bring:
- significant experience working alongside vulnerable or marginalised communities
- strong interpersonal and relationship-building skills
- knowledge of safeguarding practice and working with vulnerable adults
- confidence navigating complex or emotionally demanding situations

Working pattern
Lighthouse operates primarily between 8:00am and 8:00pm, with occasional evening events. Programme delivery is supported by a team of volunteers.
The two Managers coordinate their working schedules to ensure presence during key delivery periods across the programme week.
Working patterns are flexible and planned collaboratively to support delivery while maintaining sustainable workloads.
Lighthouse Management Structure
Lighthouse is delivered through a shared model, with two Managers working together to ensure the programme remains a safe, consistent, and dignified space for people experiencing homelessness.
Delivering this well requires both strong programme organisation and careful, trauma-informed engagement with participants.
The two Managers hold complementary responsibilities that ensure Lighthouse is both well-run and deeply responsive to the people it serves. While each role leads on specific areas of the programme, they work closely together to maintain consistent standards, clear communication, and a reliable experience for participants.
Joint responsibilities
Together the Managers ensure that Lighthouse operates with consistency, safety and care:
- Participants experience Lighthouse as a safe and welcoming space where they are treated with dignity and respect
- Delivery remains trauma-informed, relational, and grounded in Under One Sky’s values of presence, trust, and follow-through
- Lighthouse sessions are appropriately staffed, with volunteers and team members supported to deliver confidently and reliably
- Safeguarding is embedded into day-to-day delivery, with clear processes for responding to disclosures, incidents, risk, and vulnerability
- Participant needs, concerns, and wellbeing are recognised early and responded to appropriately
- Volunteers and staff are supported to hold clear boundaries while maintaining compassion and respect
- Communication and follow-through are strong so participants do not experience gaps, confusion, or inconsistent responses
- Lighthouse maintains a high standard of care, professionalism, and stability across the programme week
Culture and approach
The Managers help shape the tone of Lighthouse through calm, grounded leadership and consistent presence within the programme.
They help ensure the Lighthouse remains a place where participants feel:
- seen and respected
- safe and protected
- met with consistency rather than unpredictability
- supported without judgement
- able to access help with dignity
They create the conditions for volunteers and staff to provide meaningful support while ensuring Lighthouse remains structured, accountable, and deeply human.
Together let’s end homelessness.

Actively Interviewing
This organisation is scheduling interviews as applications come in. They're ready to hire as soon as they find the right person. Don't miss your opportunity, apply now!
We are launching something rare. Lighthouse is the clearest expression yet of what Under One Sky has been building towards for over a decade - a space rooted in care, consistency, and the belief that people can rebuild their lives when they are met with dignity and trust. At our core is something simple but powerful: a commitment to human connection.
We take our work seriously, because the stakes are high, but we try not to take ourselves too seriously. There is discipline in how we deliver, but also warmth, openness, and moments of joy that matter just as much.
Lighthouse represents a step change for us. It is the point where our ambition is fully realised - moving beyond outreach into a structured, sustained environment where people can stabilise, reconnect, and move forward. We want Lighthouse to be exceptional - not only for the people we serve, but something that sets a standard others look to and learn from.
We are looking for two people who want to help shape and run this with us. This is not a role to simply manage a programme; it is an opportunity to co-create it. We are looking for people who combine initiative with reliability - individuals who are grounded, thoughtful, and willing to take ownership. People who care deeply about purpose, who value relationships, and who bring energy and discipline to their work. These roles are for people who want to build something meaningful and do it brilliantly.
About Under One Sky & The Lighthouse
Under One Sky works alongside people experiencing homelessness to provide practical support, human connection, and pathways toward greater stability.
Lighthouse creates the conditions for people who have experienced homelessness to move beyond survival and begin rebuilding their lives. Over twelve weeks, small cohorts come together in a consistent, supportive space where confidence grows, relationships are rebuilt, and people reconnect with their sense of direction and possibility.
Through outreach, partnership working, and volunteer-led programmes, we aim to create spaces where people are treated with dignity, trust, and consistency.
The role
The Programme Manager leads the operational delivery of Lighthouse, ensuring the programme runs safely, reliably, and to a consistently high standard across the programme week. This role sits at the centre of the work - creating the conditions that allow Lighthouse to function with both structure and humanity.
Lighthouse operates in a dynamic environment where participant needs, operational demands, and volunteer teams intersect daily. You will bring clarity and calm to that complexity, maintaining strong systems and organisation while responding thoughtfully and decisively to what emerges in real time.
You will take ownership of the systems, planning, and operational coordination that underpin delivery. This includes overseeing key sessions, ensuring volunteers are well supported, and maintaining a physical space that is safe, welcoming, and well run. Your role is to make sure Lighthouse works - consistently, reliably, and with care.
You will also play a central role in shaping how Lighthouse develops over time. By observing how delivery works in practice, you will identify what can be strengthened and translate this into practical improvements. This requires sound judgement, attention to detail, and a commitment to doing things well.
You will work closely with the Engagement Manager to ensure Lighthouse remains both operationally strong and deeply responsive to the people it serves.
Key responsibilities
Operational leadership
- Lead the day-to-day operational delivery of the Lighthouse
- Plan and coordinate the weekly programme schedule, ensuring delivery is reliable and consistent

Space and facilities management
- Ensure the Lighthouse space is safe, organised, and ready for delivery
- Oversee opening and closing procedures
- Coordinate setup and breakdown of delivery areas, equipment, and supplies
- Maintain a welcoming, well-structured environment for participants, volunteers, and staff
- Liaise with venue partners or building managers where required
Volunteer coordination
- Coordinate volunteer scheduling and session rotas across the programme week
- Ensure sessions are appropriately supported by volunteers
- Maintain clear and timely communication with volunteers
Programme monitoring
- Ensure delivery data is recorded accurately and consistently
- Maintain operational records to support reporting and learning
- Support monitoring of delivery against agreed objectives and metrics
Programme development and operational improvement
- Monitor how Lighthouse operates in practice and identify opportunities to strengthen delivery
- Translate learning from day-to-day delivery into practical adjustments to programme design, scheduling, and systems
- Work with the Engagement Manager and the Co-Leads to implement improvements
- Ensure changes are communicated clearly and embedded across volunteers and teams
Operational partnerships
- Coordinate practical relationships with venues, delivery partners, and collaborators
- Manage operational arrangements for Lighthouse sessions
- Ensure partnerships support reliable and well-organised programme delivery
Requirements
About you
