The Role
In this crucial role, your focus will be on the service delivery of SPEAR’s Housing First model.

You’ll have a track record of multi-disciplinary working, case management, risk assessing, data recording, and safeguarding. The ability to build positive and rewarding relationships and influence is essential to this role.
