As a Caseworker in our Tenancy Sustainment Team, you ll do so much more than help people keep a roof over their heads.

Whether welcoming someone at the start of their support journey, walking alongside them as they navigate life s challenges, or supporting them to move on to greater independence, your work will have a lasting impact.

This is a role that develops you as much as it empowers others. Every day brings new opportunities to build trusting relationships, use your creativity to solve real-world problems, and collaborate with a committed team that is shaping the future of housing support across London.

Alongside your clients, you ll draw on a wide network of Single Homeless Project (SHP) and community services to help turn personal goals into meaningful outcomes.

Join us, and you ll be part of an ambitious, values-led organisation where you ll grow your skills, stretch your potential, and see the tangible difference your work makes - every single day. Whether you re just starting out or ready for your next challenge, this is more than a job - it s a career with purpose.
