Peer Support Worker - Homeless Team

Full Time and Part Time / 37 &amp; 15 Hours Per Week / Permanent Play a key role in making a difference to some of the most vulnerable people in the city. Our work is extremely challenging, but also extremely rewarding, changing lives for the better by tackling homelessness, building new homes, and strengthening communities. Engaging with people at a local level, we support them by delivering services that improve their lives. Working on the front line, you'll liaise with clients either face-to-face, over the telephone or conduct home visits. You will have to regularly navigate sensitive situations. You'll have a large and complex allocated caseload, where you'll undertake assessments on customers' support needs, especially regarding housing, employment, and financial needs. With the primary aim to prevent homelessness, you'll assist clients to either retain their present accommodation or find suitable alternative housing. You'll provide support to those who may be struggling with substance misuse, break down in relationships, job loss, mental or physical health problems, facing domestic abuse, those being evicted, those who can no longer afford to pay their rent, and much more. Putting the customer needs at the heart of everything you do, you'll be proactive, compassionate, and professional, to offer the best housing solutions with understanding and care. You'll need to be resilient, with a high level of maturity and the ability to manage in a very busy environment. You'll be able to deal with potentially stressful situations in a calm manner. With excellent interpersonal and listening skills, you'll be able to empathise with clients, and build a strong and trusting relationship. Ideally, you'll have worked with homeless people or worked in a similar field, undertaking assessments with people facing difficult and complex situations, and providing support in their time of need. Join us and you'll find yourself working a supportive team who are passionate, dedicated, and dynamic - working incredibly hard to ensure everyone has a place to call home. You'll have the opportunity to work from home for a significant part of the week, and otherwise be based either in the office or work across the city as required. What we can offer you As well as the satisfaction of helping to improve thousands of lives across Leicester, you can look forward to a work environment that encourages a healthy work/life balance. You'll enjoy generous annual leave, membership of the Local Government Pension Scheme and the option of flexible working. We'll also give you the chance to develop your skills and expertise with a variety of training and development opportunities. In addition, you can choose from a number of flexible benefits, including, discounts on city buses and trains and help with relocation to Leicester, where appropriate. Join us We're committed to recruiting a diverse and highly-talented workforce as we continue to build a council that is fitting and representative of our great city. That's why we've designed our recruitment process to put you at your ease, make you feel welcome and bring the best out of you.

Job Introduction At Turning Point, we support people across the UK with mental health issues. As the Transition Navigator, you'll make a real difference to their lives as you work closely with them to help them achieve their potential. Beacon Lodge is a mental health step down unit that supports people to transition from acute mental health wards back into the community. Passionate about people, you'll enjoy the scope of this role. With an emphasis on recovery working alongside specialist housing and benefit related support, you'll need to work flexibly to manage your own small caseload and help with the day to day running of the service. Role Responsibility Raising the bar for person-centred care, you'll provide a range of recovery focused support through key working sessions and group work. People's lives will be truly changed by you as you enable and prepare them to gain new skills and help them find ways to promote their long-term recovery. You will also have off rota responsibilities such as housing and benefit assessments, identifying housing needs, liaising with local authorities to ensure that service users are supported in their move on from the service. On rota, you'll work with individuals on their recovery, devising individually tailored support and risk management plans and ensuring effective discharge planning. Ultimately, you'll play a vital role in helping them to gain skills and coping strategies, all while encouraging positive change and independence. The role requires you to work on a 24-hour rolling rota consisting of 12-hour day and waking night shifts including alternate weekends. The Ideal Candidate Ideally with experience in the mental health sector, it's essential that you have a good understanding of the recovery model, together with a solution-focused attitude and a person-centred approach. You'll be equally comfortable getting things done on your own initiative and as part of a team and have no problems working in a fast-paced environment and adapting to challenging situations. And of course, you'll be the sort of person who enjoys talking to people with different needs, is genuinely interested in helping them, and possesses a deep level of empathy, understanding and patience. Housing and benefit knowledge would be desirable in this role but support and training will be provided to the successful candidate.

We run all of our services on a not-for-profit basis; instead, we invest every penny back into our services and people. We never stop believing in change for the better, and we work constantly to improve the lives of the people we support. What Benefits Will I Receive? We know reward looks different to each person and so whether its ways to make your money go further, a culture supporting recognition and celebration, or opportunities to boost your career - we want to support you in every way we can with our total reward package.
