Trafalgar House, East Hampshire
You have an excellent understanding of mental health issues, substantial experience of working in a housing and social care environment and the ability to lead a team by example. You’d also like to be part of an organisation that counts on the professionalism, insight, expertise and passion of its staff to inspire individual recovery for the people they work with. Welcome to Waythrough as a Team Manager.
About the service
East Hampshire Supported Housing provides 12-hour professional support throughout the night for people with mental health issues. We provide a person-centred holistic approach to promote the recovery of the people who live there and help them regain their independence. The individuals entering the service have high-level support and care needs that can include serious mental illness and/or a history of substance misuse.
Our role is to support them, identify and meet their diverse needs and help them on their personalised recovery journey.
About the role
This challenging front-line role comes with responsibility for the day-to-day management of the service, contracts, staff and building maintenance. As well as ensuring the very best delivery and offering direct employment support to Service Users, you’ll be responsible for promoting the service and managing all referrals. Line managing and providing supervision to front-line staff, providing individual and group support sessions to Service Users, ensuring data entry to reporting systems is accurate and timely, and taking responsibility for the service budget – these are just some aspects of this varied and vital leadership role.
About you
To succeed, you’ll need a proven relevant background that includes experience of managing a caseload of individual with complex needs. A relevant professional qualification would be useful but not essential, as would experience of carrying out investigations and writing reports and recommendations and managing a budget. More important however, is your ability to lead, supervise and motivate staff and delegate work appropriately and managing conflicting demands and priorities in a timely manner. A willingness to participate in on call arrangements and a flexible attitude to working hours are essential attributes too, as is tact and diplomacy and a firm but inclusive management style and open and encouraging demeanour.

Do you want to get out there and work in a role where you will support an end to rough sleeping in Reading?
Our belief is that rough sleeping is an intrinsically harmful and dangerous activity both for the individual and for the wider community. Therefore, we take a proactive and assertive approach to supporting people away from this activity. Our aim is to support people to recover from the effects of rough sleeping and move away from a street lifestyle permanently. We are now looking for someone to join the team as an Outreach Worker.
- Working as an Outreach Worker you will work with people to assess their needs and deliver a person-centred support, as well as working in partnership with multi-disciplinary teams and agencies across the city to meet client’s individual needs.
- It’s not always an easy job, but the exciting opportunity to work with different people every day, helping individuals experiencing homelessness and the local community end the harms of rough sleeping is highly rewarding.
About you
We are always on the lookout for people who share our ambitions, if you are ready to get out there this could be the role for you.
- We encourage you to apply if you have good communication skills with the ability to network and build effective relationships with a variety of people, a good understanding of the complex issues faced by homeless people and the difficulties they experience in accessing services.
- If you think you have the resilience and patience to work with people who may have complex needs and challenging behaviour, we will provide you with the tools and training to support clients to end rough sleeping for good.
