Job description

Not Your Average Support Role ⚡

Homelessness & Addiction Support Worker

📍 Leeds LS2
💷 £12.71-£13.00PHR
🕒 Flexible hours | Full-time & Part-time available

🚧 Real Work. Real People. Real Impact.

Forget the standard job advert.

This is about stepping into someone's world when things have fallen apart-and helping them piece it back together.

No two days look the same. One moment you might be helping someone secure accommodation. The next, you're the calm voice in a crisis. It's unpredictable, sometimes intense-but always meaningful.

🎯 What You'll Be Doing (In Plain Terms)

Showing up-consistently-for people who need it most
Supporting individuals through homelessness and addiction recovery
Helping navigate services: housing, benefits, healthcare
De-escalating difficult situations with confidence and empathy
Encouraging small wins that lead to big changes
Keeping clear records to track progress and protect clients

💡 This Role Is For You If…

You don't shy away from tough conversations
You can stay calm when situations aren't
You genuinely care-but can keep professional boundaries
You're resilient, practical, and solution-focused

Bonus points if you have:

Experience in homelessness, substance misuse, or complex needs
A Health & Social Care qualification
Knowledge of trauma-informed support

🎁 What You'll Get

A role where your work actually matters-every single day
A tight-knit, supportive team (no egos, just people who care)
Training that helps you grow and progress
Wellbeing support when you need it
Generous annual leave

⚠️ A Quick Reality Check

This job isn't easy.
But if you're looking for something meaningful-not just comfortable-you'll fit right in.
