Support Worker (Complex Needs ) (Salary: £25029.28 - £25861.56 per annum, permanent, full time)
South West based charitable housing association BCHA was founded over 50 years ago with a continuing mission to meet housing need and end homelessness. We aim to achieve this through the building and provision of affordable and secure homes, and by supporting individuals to take control and lead independent, fulfilled lives. Whether we are developing sites or supporting people with housing, learning or living skills, we believe in equality, the importance of every individual and the right to be valued and treated with dignity and respect. Our doors are open to everyone.
Position:
Join a dedicated team supporting people experiencing homelessness and complex, vulnerable situations. This is a chance to make a real difference in people’s lives.
In this role, you will provide practical support and case management to individuals with multiple and complex needs, following The Plymouth Alliance (TPA) principles. Ideally, you’ll have experience working with people who are homeless or socially excluded and a good understanding of safeguarding. Most importantly, you’ll bring energy, empathy, and a trauma-informed approach to support those who need it most.
