    About Simon Community Scotland
    Simon Community Scotland is the largest provider of homelessness services in Scotland.

    Our vision is for everyone to have a safe place to live with access to the support they need.

    Every day we help make positive things happen for people facing extremely difficult circumstances.

    Everything we do is about and for people: the people we support, our staff, our partners and everyone affected by homelessness.

    Our values are built into every area of activity and tell the story of how people remain at the heart of the Simon Community.

    The Simon Community is Scotland's leading homeless charity. We are creative and innovative.

    We are a community of staff, volunteers and the people that we support.

    We are looking for someone who is passionate about changing expectations and experiences of people we support, many of whom have experienced significant trauma, exclusion and stigma.

    They often engage in risk taking behaviours that put their physical and mental health, and their lives at risk. They know what a good, and not so good service looks like.

    -support the development of life skills and homemaking in preparation for a tenancy,
    -provide emotional support,
    -help to reduce harm caused by homelessness and trauma.

    • Help people in our community to build a positive network of connections that will help them to gain and sustain their own housing
    • Provide emotional and practical support to our community
    • Any other duties directed by your service lead

    Our values support:

    • Inclusion and participation
    • Innovation and personalisation of care and support
    • Your key responsibilities to support those values will be:
    • Developing honest and open relationships with our community that foster trust

    • Supporting our community to influence their care and support to meet their goals Fostering connection, hope, a positive identity and meaning in life and a sense of control for our community
    • Working with other teams in SCS and with partners to support good outcomes for our community
    • Seeking opportunities that will make a difference to our community
