Practice Development Manager

Homeless Link is the national membership charity for frontline homeless sector organisations in England. With more than 700 members, we work to improve services and campaign for policy change that will help end homelessness and ensure that everyone has a place to call home and the support they need to keep it. Our Innovation & Good Practice team play a key role in our work in the Homelessness sector.

We ensure people working on the frontline have access to the information they need to support people effectively and the skills required for their roles. We also explore, develop and enable implementation of evidence-based practices to improve the design and delivery of services which end homelessness.

The role of a Practice Development Manager is varied. You will be responsible for leading and managing projects that engage a broad range of external and internal stakeholders, gathering, developing and using evidence to support change in practice, disseminating in a variety of ways.

This is an exciting role, in a great team! We are passionate about what we do and are seeking candidates who share our enthusiasm for learning and working alongside others to create positive change. Alongside strong verbal & written communication and project management skills, you will be a strategic and analytical thinker. You’ll share our values of being curious, creative and willing to ask the hard questions of yourself and others.

We are actively seeking to increase diversity within our organisation and would greatly welcome applications from people with lived experience of homelessness, from a black or minority ethnic background and/or with a disability.
