Role

Having celebrated our 200th anniversary in 2024, Right There remains committed to providing tailored support to individuals in their homes and communities. We meet people where they are—without judgment—walking alongside those who need support and working to prevent homelessness and family separation.

Everyone’s journey is unique, and the path home looks different for each person. That’s why we provide individualized support, challenging stereotypes along the way. No matter the circumstances, we are here to help, not to judge.

As part of our strategic growth plans and our commitment to delivering the best possible support across our programme areas, we have created this and two further Head of Service roles. These roles will equip our programmes with the expertise, strategic direction, and capacity needed to thrive.

About the Role

As Head of Homelessness Prevention, you will play a vital role in ensuring Right There continues to provide both tailored and emotional support, helping individuals build stable, secure lives and achieve their goals—no matter how big or small.

You will be responsible for maintaining high standards of service delivery, ensuring strong governance and compliance, and inspiring our teams across the geographical areas we serve. In addition, you will drive new partnerships, identify sector opportunities, and strengthen our strategic presence to directly support Right There’s growth ambitions and long-term impact.

About You

We are looking for an experienced leader with a strong background in delivering Homelessness services and support and a proven track record in building and maintaining strategic partnerships with local authorities, funders, commissioners, and partner organisations.

A strategic thinker with a solutions-focused approach, you will be confident in navigating complexity and driving sustainable growth. Your expertise in leading innovation, driving service improvement, and embedding data-driven decision-making will be crucial in ensuring the continued success and impact of our programmes.

If you share our passion for supported those people currently homeless or at risk of becoming homeless and we motivated by preventing homelessness, one person at a time, for as long as it’s needed, we encourage you to explore the full role profile below
