* Act as an advocate for customers, helping them engage with internal and external services and access the support they need.
* Build and maintain strong relationships with local authorities, support agencies, rough sleeper teams, and out-of-hours services.
* Attend and contribute to multi-agency meetings, case reviews, and partnership discussions.
Who you are:
* Educated to GCSE standard (or equivalent) with English and Maths
* Hold a housing-related qualification (desirable)
* Substantial experience supporting adults with complex needs, particularly those affected by domestic abuse, homelessness, or related challenges.
* Experience delivering person-centred support that recognises individual strengths, needs and aspirations.
* Knowledge of current domestic abuse legislation, homelessness issues, welfare reform and best practice approaches.
* A strong understanding of safeguarding, professional boundaries and risk management.
* Holds a full UK driving licence and access to a vehicle for work purposes.
