About The Role
Family & Community Support Worker
Support People Towards Independent Living – Join Our Liverpool Team
Our support workers, based within our family and single adult services, provide personalised 1:1 support to individuals and families preparing to move into long-term, independent housing. Rewarding role supporting people in Bedspace properties to transition into secure housing. Multi-agency work across Liverpool.
You’ll deliver structured independence sessions focused on building essential life skills — such as budgeting, property maintenance, accessing employment or education, and applying for housing. These sessions are tailored to each person’s individual strengths, needs, and goals.
You’ll be supporting people currently living in Bedspace-managed temporary accommodation across the Liverpool region. The role involves close partnership working with Liverpool City Council, local authorities, and housing systems like Property Pool Plus to help people take the next step towards a stable home.
Due to the travel required, a full UK driving licence and access to a vehicle insured for business use is essential.
About You
We’re looking for someone with a genuine passion for helping people progress, who’s ready for a rewarding, fast-paced role with real impact.

Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
