Role Responsibility.  

You will have the ability to actively assist and encourage residents in maintaining and adhering to their accommodation agreement and helping them focus upon their responsibilities whilst accessing our service.

With the ability to encourage residents to participate in everyday tasks including basic living skills, education options and skills training you will work as part of a reactive team providing residents with health and wellbeing support through meaningful, engaging activities.

As there may be times when you may be faced with challenging behaviours, a knowledge of restorative practice techniques, good sense, and sound judgement in practical matters, plus a mature nature would be advantageous for this role and key qualities we look for in successful candidates.

 

If you feel you have the skills to positively support our residents whilst residing here at the YMCA Humber and would like to become a key member of our supportive and inclusive Housing and Welfare Team, we would love to hear from you.

Due to the nature of the role, an enhanced DBS is required, and provided by YMCA Humber.
