Help people unlock their future
At Key Unlocking Futures, we believe everyone deserves the opportunity to live independently, feel valued and look positively towards the future.
We're looking for a compassionate and motivated Housing Support Worker to support vulnerable adults and young people living within our supported accommodation services in Preston.
This is an opportunity to make a real difference every day, helping people overcome challenges, build confidence and take positive steps towards a more independent future.
About The Role
You'll work alongside residents who may be facing a range of challenges, providing practical and person-centred support that focuses on their strengths, aspirations and potential.
Building trusted relationships will be at the heart of everything you do. You'll help residents achieve their goals, develop life skills, access opportunities and work towards greater independence, whilst working closely with partner agencies and professionals to provide the right support at the right time.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
