Resettlement Support Worker

Can you help us on our mission with giving young people the chance to have a safe place to call home, helping them gain independence? If so, we would love to have you as part of our team!

About the role

The Resettlement team supports young people aged 16-18 who are part of the Care system or Youth Justice System. We provide them with safe and secure accommodation, giving them a stable place to call home. Whilst living in our properties, we empower them to develop their living skills, understanding how to manage their tenancy to enable them to move on to their own accommodation.

You will be playing a vital role in helping these young people flourish and move on to independent. This could be supporting them to manage complex issues they may be facing around mental health, domestic abuse, substance misuse or criminality. It could be helping them to learn key life skills like budgeting and paying bills, or assisting them with claiming benefits and job searches.

You may also be supporting the young people to access vital community services such as foodbanks and local support services, or guiding them when contacting agencies such as the Council or DWP. You will also help the young people to become to become a good neighbour, avoiding any anti-social behaviour and complaints and helping them to build a community network.

Together, your support and guidance alongside these vital skills will enable the young people to successfully move on from Roundabout and thrive in their own property, living independently in their own homes.
