Job description

About the role:

Dennis Handfield House is a 39-bed service within the Camden adult pathway, supporting men and women with multiple and complex needs. We’re recruiting Project Workers to join a skilled, multidisciplinary team including Complex Needs Workers, a Specialist Worker, Day Concierge, Night Team, and access to a Work and Learning Worker and Psychotherapist shared across SHP. Together, the team creates a supportive, purposeful environment where people are given the time, consistency and respect needed to move forward.

As a Project Worker, you’ll be a steady and trusted presence for people navigating mental and physical health challenges, substance use and experiences of the criminal justice system. You’ll hold a caseload, build meaningful relationships and deliver strengths-based, psychologically informed support that helps people sustain accommodation, access services and develop the confidence and skills to shape their own next steps. Your work will sit at the heart of the service, turning plans into progress and potential into real change.

This role is for someone who shows up with compassion, grit and belief in people’s potential, even on the hardest days. You’ll be trusted to use your judgement, work creatively and contribute your voice within a team that values learning and collaboration. In return, you’ll gain rich professional experience, clear development opportunities and the chance to be part of work that truly matters, preventing homelessness and supporting lasting change, right at the heart of it.

About you:

  • A good understanding of substance use is essential and an awareness of harm minimisation strategies and an understanding of a Strengths and Recovery model is desirable; a good understanding of the Cycle of Change.
  • An understanding of the principles of risk and needs assessment, planning, goal setting, and reviewing.
  • The sensitivity and flexibility to find ways to work with clients who may have a low level of engagement with the service.
  • A level of numeracy, literacy and comprehension to do welfare benefit, rent and petty cash calculations, write letters, and analyse and extrapolate from written information.

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. We stand alongside people as they rebuild and shape a future that feels their own. 

Joining Single Homeless Project means joining a team that’s bold, compassionate and determined to do better for the people we support and for each other. You’ll work alongside colleagues with lived experience, in a space that’s trans-inclusive, disability-friendly, and actively striving to be anti-oppressive and equitable. 

We’re not perfect, but we’re real. We listen. We learn. And we push forward, together. Because this isn’t just a job. It’s a chance to lead with empathy, spark change, and help build a London where no one is left behind.
