Support Coordinator
Basingstoke
Permanent, full or part time (full time 37.5 hpw, part time hours flexible)
Pay £23,959 per annum [pro rata] and great benefits including Health Cash Plan
Home, a place where you belong
Want to be part of a team that really cares and empowers you to help change a customer’s life for the better? As our Lead Support Worker, you’ll be at the heart of supporting our customers who have complex homelessness needs to develop their skills to live more independently in the community. You’ll make a big difference each day as you help our customers achieve their hopes and aspirations. Amazing we know!
Typical day as a Support Coordinator
• Creating support plans with your customers and coordinating our small team of Support Workers working to the plans.
• Working with our customers who may have drug or alcohol issues, mental health issues and housing support needs.
• Helping customers with daily living activities such as making meals, shopping, budgeting, maintaining their tenancy and moving onto independent accommodation.
• Carrying out risk assessments, support planning, goal setting and regular reviews.
• Cuppas, chats and catch ups. There’s no rushing from one customer to the next here! Plenty of time to collaborate with colleagues too.

Fancy going home each day knowing that you have helped change our customers lives for the better? You’ll do that here, we’re in the top 10 for Great Places to Work in the UK!
You bring
• Passion to support our customers to live their best life, working collaboratively with an eye for detail.
• Experience of creating person-centred support plans and supporting colleagues in working to work to the plans.
• Experience of coordinating and assessing customer referrals.
• The ability to work on your own initiative, remain calm under pressure and have a resilient approach.
• To get from A to B, you’ll need a vehicle insured for business purposes. The great news is that we’ll pay your mileage!
Due to limits on our current certificates of sponsorship, we are not able to offer sponsorship to external candidates for this role.  This remains under regular review.
Our team
You’ll join our manager Sherene, and our Basingstoke Social Inclusion Pathway team, who are super passionate about what we do! Sherene is a true example of how we ‘grow our own’, as she’s on her third career with us having been a Housing Management Coordinator as well as a Housing Manager before stepping into her current Manager role. When not at work she’s chasing after her two wild spaniels!
Job details
• You’ll work on a rota with shifts between 9am to 9pm but we try to be flexible and can agree a work pattern that suits both you and our customers.
• We get together regularly as a team for training and team meetings.
• You’ll be able to use technology for creating and updating support plans, complete online learning and to collaborate with colleagues.
• You’ll need an Enhanced DBS check done and we pay for that.
A place where you belong
Great things happen when we can be ourselves at work. We want all our colleagues to be who they truly are here. Our internal diversity networks, peers and allies (Multicultural, LGBTQIA+ and Disability) support us all to be our best. Together we make Home Group a great place to work!
What’s in it for you?
• 25 days annual leave (increasing to 30), the option to buy 5 more, a me day (to take off for whatever you fancy) and time off for volunteering too!
• Health cash plan saving you from £1140 per annum. We’ll cover your costs (and kids if you have them) towards dental, optical, prescriptions, alternative therapies and lots more.
• Over 800 high street discounts on groceries, holidays and days out. Looking for a new phone, bike or car? Save money with us.
• We Grow Our Own colleagues (not literally of course!), when you’re ready for the next step in your career, you can grow with us!
