Housing Specialist X 2

Be part of a team that's really making a difference
We are looking for Housing Specialists who are keen to develop their professional experience and skills.
In these unique roles, you will be embedded in one of our families' or youth teams to collaboratively deliver solutions for families or youth who are homeless or at risk of homelessness.
This innovative model builds on YFS' growing expertise in embedding specialist housing workers within our family support and youth teams.
See our report on our Thriving Families Project to find out more about our work on service integration.
This support model requires excellent problem-solving skills, close collaboration with families' and youth workers and property managers, and the ability to prioritise the needs of clients who often need immediate support.
You will support people not just to find housing, but to sustain tenancies and maintain stable homes.
You'll also build the capability of family and youth workers, as well as building your own knowledge and experience from a trauma-informed delivery perspective.
This is a rewarding role in which you will be both challenged and supported to grow as a housing specialist.
It's no exaggeration to say that in this role you can really make a difference to people's lives.
You will be supporting people, not just to overcome crisis, but to thrive.
