Job Description
The person and the role We are looking for a Support Service Worker for 30 hours a week to join our service which supports families that are facing homelessness and or need support to be able to live more independently. Ideally you will have experience of supporting vulnerable client groups, along with a good understanding of safeguarding and the complexities that it might bring. With the ability to prioritise your workload, we are looking for someone who is supportive in a non-judgmental way. You will be responsible for enabling our customers to reach their potential and for identifying their goals through individual support plans. You will also be providing support to our customers in a flexible and person-centred way, so you must have emotional resilience and the ability to deal constructively with challenging behaviour. At Thirteen we're about homes and so much more... We're the largest housing association in the North East and amongst the 25 biggest nationally - but we're more than just a landlord. With 34,000 homes in an area spanning North Tyneside to York, with the majority of properties in the Tees Valley, we're about more than just somewhere to live. Our experience extends to supporting vulnerable people with thoughtful and effective additional services and improving our homes and estates, as well as building new places for people to live. Our purpose is to provide homes, support and opportunities to grow, and our skilled and engaged colleagues and committed board directors all work tirelessly and with a sense of pride to support 70,000 tenants and customers, bringing a breadth of experience and a can-do attitude. By doing this, we will make a major contribution to the regeneration of the Tees Valley to support the local economy. Thirteen people are deeply passionate about what they do and why they do it. We seek to employ people who share our ambition to think and work differently. This means sourcing those passionate individuals who ensure every relationship matters, are reliable, passionate and adaptable in their approach and can work progressively in a high performing, commercially minded environment. Are you up for the challenge of bringing our vision to life? For further information about the role please contact Jill Leech, 07590444890. Education: Not Specified Employment Type: Permanent
