Outreach Support Worker
Peabody have an exciting opportunity for full time outreach support workers working within the London Borough of Havering. We provide a housing related support service. The service hours are Mon to Fri 9am to 5pm with very occasional extended hrs if the need requires. As part of our outreach contract we hold various surgeries across the community which include Drop in facilities and a Community Food Shop. The successful candidate will work both face to face within the community and also telephone duty contact. The team at times work from home or from various Hubs across Borough. The role also consists of reducing social isolation and encouraging residents to be part of their community.
At Peabody, where possible, we provide flexible working opportunities from day one to our employees, as we recognise the importance of a good work-life balance; and to improve our productivity and performance, we embrace agile working, which means if you are in a desk based role, that will be a hybrid of office and home working. If your role is in a client facing environment, appropriate base location will apply.
Our mission is to help people make the most of their lives and an important part of this is to ensure that our organisation reflects the wider communities we serve. We want to attract recruit and retain a diverse, inclusive and creative workforce to give us the best opportunity to meet the diverse needs of our residents and customers. We actively encourage applications from all groups and communities, as well as from BAME, LGBTQ+ and disabled people.
