We are looking for 2 Complex Caseworkers to join our Rough Sleeper team in Reading who provide intensive support to people with complex needs experiencing homelessness. This passionate team offer person centred support service to help people who require a specialist intervention approach to support them through the transition from rough sleeping into sustainable accommodation.
We currently have 2 opportunities available:
* Supporting women experiencing homelessness, including those affected by violence against women and girls (VAWG).
* Supporting a mixed cohort of clients experiencing homelessness with complex needs.
In both roles you will work collaboratively with the Rough Sleeper Navigator Coordinator and Outreach team as well as relevant partner agencies in Reading to deliver sustainable outcomes to clients.

* You will be responsible for overseeing a caseload of clients and providing day to day support to clients with their transition from the streets into accommodation and independent living with a strong focus on tenancy sustainment and rescue.
* This includes working with people on health, housing, employment and training support. You will be given support to build strong relationships with a range of other services to find creative and sustainable routes to recovery for clients.
* You’re typical working hours will be Monday – Friday, with flexibility to work outside of these hours at times to support the team through SWEP.
About you
Above all we are looking for people who share our values; who are passionate about supporting our clients to sustain their recovery. Even if you don’t think you match 100 % of the criteria, we would still like to hear from you as we value transferable skills. Potential can be equally as important as experience, so if you think you have what it takes, please do apply!
* If you have good communication skills, with the ability to network and build effective relationships with a variety of people,
* You should have a good working understanding of supporting vulnerable with complex needs, such as substance use, mental and physical health issues, and the ability to understand the difficulties they experience in accessing services that full meet their needs.
