It does not matter whether your route into support work has been through housing, social care, homelessness, youth work, community services or lived experience-informed practice.

Supported Accommodation South Ayrshire helps reduce repeat homelessness by providing high-quality housing support in Ayr for young people aged 16 to 25. As Senior Support Worker, you will support the Service Manager with the day-to-day leadership of the programme and help make sure young people receive safe, person-centred and strengths-based support.

We provide tailored support for people living with the effects of homelessness, poverty, addiction or family breakdown, meeting people where they are with no judgement and walking alongside them at the right time.

What you’ll do

• Lead and support a team. You will build positive relationships with Support Workers, provide regular supervision and appraisals, support rota planning and help create a team culture where colleagues feel supported to do their best work.

• Work in a trauma-informed way. You will promote person-centred planning, unconditional positive regard, psychologically informed practice and harm reduction approaches.
• Build strong relationships locally. You will represent Right There with local authority colleagues, social work, housing services and community partners, supporting links that help young people move forward.
• Support improvement and participation. You will contribute to team meetings, reflective practice, service development, complaints resolution and opportunities for the people we support to shape the service.

What you’ll bring

You may already be supervising or leading a team in housing, social care or support services, or you may be ready to take the next step into a broader leadership role. We are interested in the experience you bring, the way you work with people and your commitment to learning.

• You hold SVQ Level 3 in Social Services and Health Care, or an equivalent SCQF qualification, or are willing to work towards this.

• You can communicate clearly and respectfully, including through written records, reports and day-to-day conversations.
• You are confident using Microsoft Office and can work with information to support service quality and improvement.

You do not need to have followed one fixed route into this role.

If this role excites you but you do not meet every point, we still encourage you to apply.
