Job Summary

Are you a proactive, compassionate individual with proven experience of supporting young people with housing support and tenancy sustainment and of supervising staff and volunteers?  Are you looking for a career-enhancing new opportunity?

If so, join St Giles as a Senior Specialist Mental Health Floating Support Worker where, working as part of a high-performing team, you will offer vital support to young people who require assistance when moving into independent living in order to address support needs and sustain their tenancies, as well as managing and supporting a Caseworker and volunteers to this new project.

About St Giles Trust 

An ambitious, well-established charity that helps people facing adversity to find jobs, homes and the right support they need.  Central to our ethos is our belief that people with first-hand experience of successfully overcoming issues such as an offending background, homelessness, addictions and gang involvement, hold the key to positive change in others. 

About this key role

Our successful candidate will lead by example, be the day-to-day expert within the team and be a positive role model to the team of caseworkers, escalating any concerns to the Team Leader or Service Manager as required.  Working as part of a multi-disciplinary team, we will rely on you to provide support, advice and advocacy for young people and their families regarding accommodation, and to produce support and risk management plans based on assessments, while also delivering a holistic support service that will include practical help such as social and housing support, ETE options, benefits work, debt advice, liaising with utilities, appearing in court, and cleaning.

We will also rely on you to ensure, on a daily basis, that all monitoring information and evidence is being recorded and collated in line with agreed processes, that you contribute to the services’ out of hours rota as required, plus work closely with the Team Leader and Service Manager to ensure the team can work effectively e.g. identifying training opportunities and peer-supervision.

  • Experience of using support plans to enable young people to successfully access and sustain accommodation and support services
  • Substantial experience of providing support, advice and advocacy 
  • Experience in working as part of a multi-agency team, working together to achieve positive outcomes for young people and establishing links to further the aims of a project
  • Substantial experience of assessing risk and implementing safety procedures when thinking about young people involved in or at risk of violence or exploitation
  • Excellent interpersonal, relationship-building and communication skills, verbal and written 
  • A flexible, collaborative and professional approach to your work

As an organisation that works with children and adults at risk we are committed to safeguarding, protecting and promoting the safety of our clients and successful applicants will require an Enhanced Child and Adult with Child Barred DBS Check.

We actively encourage people with personal experience of the criminal justice system or lived experience of the issues facing this client group to apply for this role.

In return, you can expect a competitive salary, generous leave allowance, staff pension, flexible working, a mentoring programme, an advice and counselling service, clinical therapist sessions, life insurance (4 x annual salary), duvet days, season ticket loan, employee perks programme, eye care voucher and much more.

We are an equity and inclusion confident employer.
