    Housing/Homeless/Outreach workers - London, United Kingdom - Southwark Council

    Default job background
    Description

    We are the largest local authority social landlord in London, managing 55,000 homes lived in by 40% of Southwark's residents.

    We are home to over 18,300 businesses including iconic London venues and social enterprises and we have a young, diverse and growing population.

    Our residents and communities are our greatest asset and the passion we have for Southwark is shared by millions of Londoners who enjoy our outstanding cultural offer, use our hospitals and attend our universities.

    Our refreshed borough plan and focus on Southwark Stands Together, underpins all that we do.

    Southwark Housing Solutions Service has a vacancy for a Housing First Officer to join our established in-house Housing First Team.

    We are a small, multidisciplinary team dedicated to working with persons experiencing multiple exclusion homelessness.

    The team is able to draw upon the council's position as the largest social landlord in London in seeking to support persons who have experienced rough sleeping into permanent, independent accommodation.

    Our clients have also formed an Experts-by-Experience Advisory Board who are active in both operational and research/academic fields. The Housing First Team benefits from externally facilitated Reflective Practice provided by the Centre for Institutional Analysis, Goldsmiths, University of London.

    You will be an experienced practitioner from a field related to working with persons experiencing multiple exclusion homelessness and rough sleeping.

    This might be from the third-sector, local authority-led services, substance misuse, health, housing, criminal justice, or related disciplines.

    You will have well-developed rapport- and relationship-building skills, and a deep knowledge of both the issues facing persons experiencing MEH and interventions congruent with those needs.

    You will intensively manage a small caseload of Housing First clients and be skilled in casework, assessment, support planning, co-production, and inter-disciplinary collaboration.

    You will have strong skills around safeguarding and practical matters such as welfare benefits, use of IT systems, and case management/recording.

    This is a Fixed-term contract until 31st March 2025.

    You will benefit from our family-friendly policies including flexible working, home working, and a local government pension scheme, plus many other staff benefits.

    As part of our commitment to inclusion, we offer guaranteed interviews for specific groups of people, ensuring diversity in our workforce.

    We are an organization who is passionate about our people and understands that richness of diversity is a requirement to provide the best possible services to our communities.

    This is demonstrated through our council-wide ambitious commitment to tackle racial inequality in our communities and workforce through our Southwark Stands Together program.

    We particularly welcome applications from members of the Black, Asian and ethnic minority communities to increase representation at senior management level in the Council.
