Current vacancies:
Project Worker
Would you like to contribute to ending homelessness in Manchester? Would you like a job where you can make a difference to people’s lives every day? If you’ve got the enthusiasm, skills and experience that we’re looking for we would love to welcome you into the Booth Centre’s supportive team of staff and volunteers.
The Booth Centre is an innovative, activities-based community centre run in partnership with people who have experienced homelessness.
The Booth Centre provides a warm welcome, an opportunity to belong, to gain a purpose and rebuild lives. Our programme includes activities such as volunteering, creative projects and sports, as well as training and help to gain employment. We also support people to improve health and wellbeing, to access emergency accommodation, and to secure and maintain a permanent home.
The Centre is run in partnership with the people who attend and they are centrally involved in the planning, evaluation, and delivery of the service. The Centre is recognised nationally as a beacon of best practice.
Our vision is for everyone to have a secure home and the opportunity to have a good quality of life. We work in a holistic way to support people who are homeless or threatened with homelessness, to find permanent accommodation and make it into a home. We link people into health and other support services and assist people to build positive social networks and to find a purpose, which will take them away from street-based lifestyles and improve their quality of life. We have an Arts Programme, a Sports and Wellbeing Programme, an Employment and Skills Programme and a Volunteering Programme which run alongside our Support Service and Resettlement Programme.
We are looking to employ a Project Worker to support our programme. The right person for the role will be positive, enthusiastic, reliable, energetic, flexible, resilient and proactive with both group work and support work skills. The role is interesting and varied with scope to develop new areas of work. This role might suit someone with youth work or community work skills and experience.
We welcome applications from people with personal experience of homelessness, from people who can speak a European Language (as well as speaking excellent English), and from people with a Black, Asian and minority ethnic background as we strive to ensure our staff team is representative of people who attend the Centre, but these are not essential requirements, as we welcome applications from the whole community. All appointments will be made on merit.
Salary: £25,481 - £26,511 + 10% pension
Closing Date for Applications: Sunday 20th June 2021 12 noon
In-Person Visit date: Wednesday 23rd June, 8.30am to 1pm
Zoom Interview Date: Friday 25th June 2021, pm
The successful applicant will be subject to an enhanced DBS check.
