About the role: At Single Homeless Project (SHP), we're driven by the belief that everyone deserves a place to call home and the chance to build a life that feels fulfilling and hopeful. In our Hammersmith and Fulham service, we provide that opportunity through one high support hostel and two medium support hostels, where 24 Londoners are rebuilding their lives while managing their mental health and other complex challenges such as substance use or past offending. This is a place where progress is measured not just in milestones but in moments of courage, connection and growth - and where your work has the power to change the direction of someone's story. As a Project Worker, you'll play a leading role in helping clients understand and manage their emotional and mental health needs, while developing the confidence and skills to live independently. Through meaningful one-to-one work, you'll carry out detailed needs and risk assessments, identify achievable short-term goals, and help clients strengthen relationships, expand social networks and access training, education or employment. Every day will bring new opportunities to inspire change - whether supporting a resident to manage a difficult day, celebrating progress towards recovery or working alongside a dedicated team to keep our 24-hour service running smoothly, including on weekends. This is more than a job, it's a chance to grow your career in a place that values your ideas, invests in your development and champions innovation in homelessness support. At SHP, you'll be part of a tenacious, forward-thinking team determined to do what works, to go further, and to make London a place where everyone can thrive. Please note that this role involves shift work, including a combination of early shifts (8:00 AM - 3:30 PM) and late shifts (2:30 PM - 10:00 PM), with shifts scheduled every other weekend. About you: You've supported people experiencing mental health challenges and complex needs, and you know how to build trust by seeing the person, not just the problem. You understand safeguarding, risk and mental health legislation, and can use that knowledge in a way that keeps people safe while respecting their choice and independence. You're confident getting to the heart of someone's needs, creating clear support plans and helping people take realistic steps towards recovery. You understand what makes a residential service feel safe, settled and homely, from tenancy support to the small everyday details that matter. You enjoy working alongside partners, including mental health, substance use and other specialist services, to make sure people get the right support at the right time. About us: We're London's leading homelessness charity - and we get things done. In a city where hundreds are forced into homelessness every day, our work has never been more needed or more challenging. And we're not shying away. We're rolling up our sleeves to make change and helping over 10,000 Londoners every year. We prevent homelessness, provide safe places to live and give people the opportunity to rebuild their lives and transform their futures. And we never give up. We're here for Londoners wherever they are on their journey. We start with trust, building relationships that help people feel safe, supported, and ready to move forward.

Full time
About the role: At Single Homeless Project (SHP), we're driven by the belief that everyone deserves a place to call home and the chance to build a life that feels fulfilling and hopeful. In our Hammersmith and Fulham service, we provide that opportunity through one high support hostel and two medium support hostels, where 24 Londoners are rebuilding their lives while managing their mental health and other complex challenges such as substance use or past offending. This is a place where progress is measured not just in milestones but in moments of courage, connection and growth - and where your work has the power to change the direction of someone's story. As a Project Worker, you'll play a leading role in helping clients understand and manage their emotional and mental health needs, while developing the confidence and skills to live independently. Through meaningful one-to-one work, you'll carry out detailed needs and risk assessments, identify achievable short-term goals, and help clients strengthen relationships, expand social networks and access training, education or employment. Every day will bring new opportunities to inspire change - whether supporting a resident to manage a difficult day, celebrating progress towards recovery or working alongside a dedicated team to keep our 24-hour service running smoothly, including on weekends. This is more than a job, it's a chance to grow your career in a place that values your ideas, invests in your development and champions innovation in homelessness support. At SHP, you'll be part of a tenacious, forward-thinking team determined to do what works, to go further, and to make London a place where everyone can thrive. Please note that this role involves shift work, including a combination of early shifts (8:00 AM - 3:30 PM) and late shifts (2:30 PM - 10:00 PM), with shifts scheduled every other weekend. About you: You've supported people experiencing mental health challenges and complex needs, and you know how to build trust by seeing the person, not just the problem. You understand safeguarding, risk and mental health legislation, and can use that knowledge in a way that keeps people safe while respecting their choice and independence. You're confident getting to the heart of someone's needs, creating clear support plans and helping people take realistic steps towards recovery. You understand what makes a residential service feel safe, settled and homely, from tenancy support to the small everyday details that matter. You enjoy working alongside partners, including mental health, substance use and other specialist services, to make sure people get the right support at the right time. About us: We're London's leading homelessness charity - and we get things done. In a city where hundreds are forced into homelessness every day, our work has never been more needed or more challenging. And we're not shying away. We're rolling up our sleeves to make change and helping over 10,000 Londoners every year. We prevent homelessness, provide safe places to live and give people the opportunity to rebuild their lives and transform their futures. And we never give up. We're here for Londoners wherever they are on their journey. We start with trust, building relationships that help people feel safe, supported, and ready to move forward. Every day, we put people first in everything we do, challenging injustice and barriers that keep people from the safety, stability and opportunity they deserve.
