The Vacancy Llamau is daring to imagine a world without homelessness - will you help us to create it? Llamau's mission is to end youth homelessness and homelessness for women in Wales. It's a big ambition and to some people it might seem impossible, but we know that if we all work together, homelessness genuinely doesn't have to exist. We're looking for passionate, talented and tenacious people to join Team Llamau. You'll be an organised individual with an attention to detail, eager to hit the ground running in a busy environment. This is a process driven role in an organisation where no two days will be the same. You'll be working alongside passionate and supportive colleagues in a rewarding environment, where you'll be making a huge contribution to creating a Wales without homelessness, every single day. What's in it for you? <ul> <li>We are passionate about nurturing talent, our senior leadership team includes colleagues that have progressed through the business from entry level roles</li> <li>You'll have access to a competitive benefits package including a maximum holiday entitlement of 41 days (including bank holidays)</li> <li>Enhanced Group Pension Scheme of 10% contributions (after qualifying period)</li> <li>You'll also have free access to an internal wellbeing and counselling team</li> <li>You'll have opportunities to diversify your skills and widen your experience across a range of services and niche roles including domestic violence service, employment support, training and skills tutoring</li> <li>You'll have access to an extensive online training platform, as well as the chance to enrol on specific training in substance misuse, housing law, ACEs, etc.</li></ul>The Company At Llamau we believe that no young person or vulnerable woman should ever have to experience homelessness. Our mission is to eradicate homelessness for young people and vulnerable women. But for thousands of the most vulnerable people in Wales, homelessness is a frightening reality. 30 years ago Llamau was founded to provide homeless teenagers with a safe place to stay. Since then, we have supported over 67,000 young people, women and their children who are either homeless or facing homelessness. Many people think the job of a homelessness charity will be to provide accommodation - a safe place to stay. But it is very clear to us that for most people who are facing homelessness, their problems are far more complex than a lack of permanent shelter. That's why we treat everyone who needs our support as an individual. We recognise their unique strengths and needs and make sure that they are supported to rebuild their futures. Our Values We are a values-led organisation which puts the people we support at the heart of the organisation. Our values mean that we can offer the highest quality support and empathy. Our values are: <ul> <li>We Respect</li> <li>We Listen</li> <li>We Encourage</li> <li>We Learn</li> <li>We Don't Give Up</li></ul>
