Supported Housing Officer

Role Overview & Responsibilities

Are you passionate about supporting people to make positive changes?

The primary purpose of the Supported Housing Officer role is to work across our Housing Services and support the Service Users to make positive change and gain life skills and meet their goal to move on to independent living.

You would support Service Users to gain life skills and meet their goal to move on to independent living. We do this by working with them on their own individual support plan for around 5 hours a week, helping them to meet their ambitions in areas such as health, budgeting, training and employment. This role will involve working various housing services including but not limited to rough sleepers, people fleeing domestic abuse, single homeless and refugees depending on the service need. This role covers both Ipswich and Lowestoft so access to own transport is essential.

ACT is an employer who believes in work-life balance, reward and recognition, and their personnel are their most valuable resource. Support and opportunities for personal development will be provided.

As part of our Recruitment Process, we commit to offering an interview to all Veterans seeking employment; service personnel during their resettlement phase; and care leavers. We therefore recommend that you highlight this in your application.

In some instances we do reserve the right to close a vacancy earlier than the closing date, therefore early applications are encouraged.

Anglia Care Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of vulnerable adults and young people, is an equal opportunities employer which values diversity and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Successful applicants will be asked to apply for an Enhanced DBS Disclosure.
