To be successful in this role, you will bring your construction / housing enforcement knowledge and your negotiation and interpersonal skills to effectively manage all stakeholders in the enforcement process, including tenants, private landlords, registered providers of social housing, other accommodation providers, Fire Service, Police, and other Council departments. The role will provide the opportunity to work on a diverse range of cases both in the office and on site in people's homes. You will need good organisational, report writing and IT skills and attention to detail. You will work as part of a team of 6 Housing Standards Officers, 2 Assistant Housing Standards Officers, a Duty Assistant and a Team Leader, as well as colleagues in the wider Housing service who deliver adaptations, domestic retrofit, hoarding support, and housing options.

Job Details: Salary range: £41,580 - £55,710 per annum. Salary negotiable depending upon experience. Work location: 190 Vauxhall Bridge Road, London, SW1V 1DX Hours per week: 36 Contract type: Permanent Vetting requirements: Enhanced DBS Check Closing date: 29 June 2024 About Us: THE EXTRAORDINARY STORY OF MR K's RECOVERY Adult Social Care in Westminster City Council is a world of extraordinary stories, where our passionate, caring and committed professionals do brilliant work every day. A globe-trotting tourist called Mr K had a stroke. Hospitalised and very vulnerable, we put a unique plan together for him. He wanted to travel to Germany, but he wasn't well enough. We placed Mr K in a care home to recover. Initially he didn't like it, but our social worker worked hard to encourage him to stay. And he enjoyed the experience so much, he stayed for a year. As he was recovering, Mr K's social worker got him an iPad and a phone to help him manage his finances and arrange his next trip. This enabled him to book his tickets to Germany. 'Auf wiedersehen' and he was gone! The Role: As a Social Worker in our Joint Homelessness Team, you can make your own powerful contribution in the lives of rough sleepers in Westminster. Losing work, relationship breakdown, traumatic life events, mental ill health, or problems with drugs and alcohol can push people already on the brink into rough sleeping. Together with our charity partners, we work to offer accommodation and support services that help people leave homelessness behind. We offer a wide range of housing and outreach support services to help homeless people regain their independence - from day centres and hostels, to specialist supported housing services for people with mental health problems, learning disabilities and young homeless people. We also offer counselling to help people overcome drug and alcohol addiction, befriending services and employment and skills training. You'll join a social work team that's co-located alongside healthcare staff from our local NHS Trust. In a truly collaborative environment, you'll discover scope to deliver outstanding results faster than you might expect. Especially because you'll also develop strong links with other services, and with service users' families. Working with rough sleepers who have co-morbidities, complex social care needs, enduring mental illness, and in some cases addiction challenges, you will be instrumental to developing packages of care that are tailored to the individual. With responsibilities including statutory social work assessments and the duties of an Approved Mental Health Professional, you'll enjoy a truly fulfilling opportunity to help people live happier, healthier and more secure lives, in which they're more included as part of our community. Please refer to the Job Description for more information. About You: At Westminster you'll have the freedom and autonomy to adapt your interventions to each individual you work with. So you'll need to be a proactive person, with a creative approach to working with service users and their families. Above all, you'll demonstrate a commitment to dignity and respect at the heart of every intervention you propose. Ideally, in addition to being a qualified, registered social worker, you'll be an Approved Mental Health Professional (or willing to train as one). We'd prefer you to have some experience in working with adults who have mental health problems. Naturally, you'll also bring to the role a good knowledge of relevant legislation and guidance. Comfortable working with people from a wide range of ethnic and cultural groups, you've got excellent communication and relationship building skills. Westminster City Council is committed to supporting Care Leavers into the workplace. Care Leavers seeking their first job and who wish to be considered under our scheme, will automatically be invited to interview should they meet the essential criteria for the role. What We Offer: Westminster is an amazing place.

Westminster City Council's strategy is to work towards a Fairer Westminster.
