* Build positive, trusting relationships with individuals who may have complex or multiple support needs.
* Provide practical and emotional support to help people move away from rough sleeping.
* Complete assessments, risk assessments and personalised support plans.

You don't need to have worked in exactly the same role before. What's important is that you can build trust, communicate effectively, manage challenging situations and genuinely care about helping people achieve positive change.
