Housing Officer, Social Work

• Location Gateshead (with occasional travel to South Shields and Byker)
• Status 37.5 hours per week

At Tyne we are so proud of our fantastic Supported Housing Officers and the amazing job that they do; working with our staff and our residents we have come up with our "Model of Support" which sets out the principles that guide us when we work with people.

Our support is real, practical, relevant and tailored to the needs of the client - we work with people to achieve their goals, not ours, but we lay down a challenge to all our clients to see if they can get to a better place.

You ll need to get your hands dirty: this is practical support giving people the skills they need for independent life. But, we can guarantee you a job that brings immense satisfaction and at a time when many people are thinking "How can I make a difference?" filling in this application form could be the first step to answering that question.

As our support never stops you will be asked to help provide, on a rota basis, some additional back-up to our Out of Hours Concierge service between 5-9 on weeknights but you will receive additional pay for this. You can typically expect to be on this rota 3-4 times per year.
