Want to be part of a team that really cares and empowers you to help change a customer’s life for the better?  We have a fabulous opportunity for you to join our awesome team.

Based at The Link, a Community Health and Wellbeing Hub in Yeovil, we are looking to recruit an enthusiastic and self-motivated Outreach Support Coordinator to work with customers experiencing difficulties in securing or maintaining accommodation in South Somerset.

You will be part of the team providing outreach support to rough sleepers in the area, working with them to improve their housing opportunities and linking them in with partnership agencies.  You will be required to work two mornings a week from 6am to verify and support rough sleepers.

A key part of your role will be to build strong and pro-active relationships with housing providers and landlords, to enable a smooth transition and open up housing opportunities for our customers. 

You’ll make a big difference each day as you help our customers achieve their hopes and aspirations.

Amazing we know!
