_ Are you passionate about supporting people and helping to prevent homelessness?_


BCP is committed to ending homelessness in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole by ensuring everyone has a safe place to live that they can call home.

We are looking for highly motivated Support and Inclusion Officers to join our front-line housing team to help deliver this vision.

If you are passionate about supporting people to prevent homelessness, we have exciting career opportunities available.


You will have an awareness of homelessness and its many root causes, as well as an ability to put people at ease, exercise empathy and provide trauma informed support.

This rewarding role will challenge you every day to use your excellent people skills and problem-solving ability.

You will be part of a supportive and motivated team, helping people in often complex and difficult situations, including homelessness.

If you have experience of working with people and the skills to;

  • Communicate effectively
  • Manage a caseload with competing demands
  • Collaborate with other teams and partner agencies
  • Provide tailored support to customers to maintain accommodation
  • Find creative solutions to prevent homelessness
Then we want to hear from you


Experience in this field is desirable but we are looking for those who have the right attitude and behaviours to learn and carry out this role.

As a result of the creation of BCP Council in 2019, we are working on simplifying our terms and conditions of service and will be creating a single pay structure which all of our employees will move on to.

It is important to us that we offer benefits that our colleagues value as part of their total employment package and we are reviewing these to make sure we have it right.

We're hoping to implement these changes in 2024 and all colleagues joining us will be included in these changes.
