Pathways to Independence is a registered charity providing supported housing services to homeless single adults, including ex-offenders, across Kent and Medway.
We have several accommodation services in the Medway area and this is an opportunity to join a small but effective team in providing practical and personal support and guidance to clients during the period of their stay to enable them to become more resilient and to live independent lives.
Working hours will normally be Monday – Friday 9am – 5pm, although some flexible working is acceptable/required. The contract is twelve months fixed-term due to funding, we would hope it would be extended in line with repeat funding.
The successful candidate will have experience of working in an accommodation based support service for vulnerable and a knowledge of the traumas associated with homelessness. The candidate will committed to developing this service within PIE principles and with a trauma informed approach. Experience of working with people with criminal convictions is desirable.
The candidate will need to be able to manage their own time and competing priorities effectively. Good IT skills, and excellent interpersonal and communication skills with people at all levels are essential.
A full UK Driving Licence is essential along with the daily use of a car (subject to the provisions of the Disability Discrimination Act 1995).
An Enhanced DBS disclosure will be required. However, a criminal conviction will not prejudice your application but will be risk assessed for the role.
Pathways is committed to eliminating discrimination and to working with people from diverse backgrounds.
