Outreach Worker

Single Homeless Project
London
Job Description

Single Homeless Project has an opportunity for a Outreach Worker to join and work in our team based in Camden. You will join us on a full time, permanent basis and in return, you will receive a competitive salary starting at £33,133.12 and rising incrementally to £35,871.35 per annum.

About The Role

At the heart of Camden’s response to street homelessness, the Rough Sleeping Outreach & Hub Service works across streets, transport hubs and a central support hub to ensure that no one is left facing rough sleeping alone. This is an integrated, borough-wide service focused on early engagement, reducing harm and supporting people to move away from the streets towards safety, accommodation and longer-term stability.

As an Outreach Worker, you’ll be a consistent and trusted presence for people sleeping rough or at risk of rough sleeping. Working flexibly across street outreach and hub-based support on a rota basis, you’ll build meaningful relationships, carry out trauma-aware assessments and coordinate practical support that helps people take their next steps.

You’ll work within a 'No Wrong Door' approach, supporting people wherever and however they engage. That might mean meeting someone early in the morning on outreach, supporting them to access the hub later that day, or working alongside partners to remove barriers that have kept them excluded in the past.

This is a role with variety, challenge and real impact. You’ll respond to complex situations, manage risk thoughtfully, and support people through moments of crisis and change. The work can be unpredictable and includes early, late and weekend shifts as part of a 7-day rota - but you won’t be doing it alone. You’ll be supported through reflective practice, supervision and training, as part of a skilled, compassionate and determined team.

If you’re motivated by persistence, partnership and meaningful outcomes, this is a chance to grow your skills while helping others move forward with dignity and hope.

About You

  • You’re motivated by helping people move away from harm and towards stability. You understand that progress isn’t always linear, and you bring patience, persistence and empathy to your work.
  • You use a trauma-informed, strengths-based approach and can stay calm and professional when situations are complex. You balance compassion with clear boundaries and use your judgement to manage risk and safeguarding effectively.
  • You work well in a fast-moving environment. You can manage competing priorities, work independently in the community and keep clear, accurate records that support continuity and accountability.
  • You value partnership and collaboration. You’re confident working alongside housing, health, substance use and community safety services to deliver joined-up support and meaningful outcomes.
  • You’re flexible and reliable, and comfortable working across a rota that includes early and late shifts, evenings and weekends. You’re open to working both on outreach and within a hub setting, adapting to service need while keeping people at the centre of what you do.

Joining Single Homeless Project means joining a team that’s bold, compassionate and determined to do better for the people we support and for each other. You’ll work alongside colleagues with lived experience, in a space that’s trans-inclusive, disability-friendly, and actively striving to be anti-oppressive and equitable.

We’re not perfect, but we’re real. We listen. We learn. And we push forward, together. Because this isn’t just a job. It’s a chance to lead with empathy, spark change, and help build a London where no one is left behind.
