There are a range of roles available within Care Support Scotland's homelessness services, offering the opportunity to support individuals at different stages of their journey. These include:

Tenancy Support
Moving into your own home after experiencing homelessness can be both exciting and overwhelming. The Tenancy Support service provides ongoing support to help individuals maintain their tenancy and live independently.

Support Workers assist with practical tasks such as:

  • Updating Universal Credit circumstances
  • Completing housing benefit applications
  • Ensuring individuals access the full range of benefits they are entitled to
  • Providing ongoing guidance to help people sustain their tenancy

This service is available to individuals moving on from homelessness services as well as others in the community who require support.

Housing First
The Housing First service supports individuals who may find it challenging to live independently and may have experienced previous tenancy breakdowns.

This service provides:

  • Flexible, intensive one-to-one support
  • Support tailored to the individual's needs and preferences
  • On-demand contact with a dedicated Support Worker
  • Scheduled visits arranged around the individual

Due to the nature of this service, referrals are typically made via local authorities or partner organisations, with spaces prioritised for those who would benefit most.

Contract Available

  • Full-time permanent contracts (36 hours per week)
  • Opportunities available across:
    • Day shifts
    • Night shifts

What We Are Looking For

  • Experience in social care, homelessness support, or a similar role is desirable but not essential
  • A compassionate, resilient and person-centred approach
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills
  • Ability to work both independently and as part of a team
  • Commitment to promoting dignity, respect and inclusion

Apply

If you are passionate about supporting vulnerable individuals and want to build a rewarding career in social care, we would welcome your application.

Support Worker - Homelessness

London

Fixed Contract £16.59 - £17.54 Hour

Central Recruitment is currently recruiting for Support Workers to work in various locations across London on an ad hoc basis.

We have work available in various shift patterns, including early, late, waking nights, and sleep-ins. Pay rates range from £16.59-£17.54 per hour (inclusive of holiday pay) depending on location.

In this position, candidates are expected to provide effective day to day shift cover that supports the aims of the project, safeguards the residents and provides effective support within a harm minimisation and strengths and recovery framework. You will provide an effective, high quality support service to men and women with complex and enduring needs in relation to homelessness, substance misuse and related issues (i.e. street activity, mental health).

To apply for this role, you must have at least 12 months paid experience of working with homeless adults who have a variety of additional needs including substance misuse or mental health needs.

In these positions, the candidates are expected to have the ability to cope with customers who display challenging behaviour, and an understanding of the risks associated with specific service user groups. You must also be able to work flexibly with clients who have a low level of engagement with the service.

Further requirements:

In order to register with Central Recruitment Services for temporary agency work, candidates must meet the following criteria:

  • Current valid right to work in the UK
  • Minimum 12 months of paid experience in a front line social care role within the last 3 years (unless recruitment criteria states otherwise)
  • A fully enhanced DBS registered on the DBS update service or willingness to apply for one through Central (at a cost of £60)
  • Employment or education history to cover the last 5 years which can be verified through the referencing process

How to apply:

If you feel that you fully meet the above outlined criteria for this role and would like apply for this post, please forward your CV for consideration.

Please note the outlined experience is the 'minimum' first stage criteria, and we will therefore be unable to consider your application unless you are able to demonstrate a relevant work history in line with this position.
