Job description

Are you the type of person who prefers to stay up late, rather than get up early?

Not sure about what job you want, but you have a caring nature.

Have you ever considered picking up night shifts when it suits you?

In Hereford, we provide housing and support for vulnerable adults over the age of 18, who are homeless or at risk of homelessness.

We are looking for a Night Worker (internally known as a Building Supervisor) to work as part of our growing Accommodation Based Services team, covering night shifts as and when our staff are on leave.

We are looking for someone who likes to stay awake at night, can keep themselves busy during quiet shifts, and is always happy to talk and help people.

Are you ready to make a difference in people's lives?

The Role

You'll work as part of a tight-knit team of Support Workers, Housing Officers and a Project Manager.

Your focus will be to ensure that our buildings are safe and secure for our residents who live there. This will also involve liaising with support staff to ensure a good flow of information between shifts through handovers.

You'll have a broad set of responsibilities; ensuring you are aware of who is on-site, keeping the building clean, tidy and presentable, undertaking light maintenance duties, and engaging with residents who may need someone to listen to them.

As safety and security are paramount within this role, you'll be expected to defuse any situations that may affect the safety or wellbeing of residents. You'll need to adopt sound judgement to either resolve situations yourself, or seek support from peers and emergency services if needed.

A key function is to undertake health and safety checks and walkarounds throughout your shift .

Demonstrating empathy and patience towards our residents is essential, as well as maintaining professional boundaries.

There will be tailored, specific training that will help you advance through a training pathway and progress during your career at CCP.

Experience in interacting with a diverse cross section of society would be useful in this role. However, this is not essential as training and induction will be given.
