As an Upstream Project Worker, you will be part of an innovative team dedicated to preventing youth homelessness before it happens. Roundabout’s experience of supporting homeless young people has shown us that the roots of young people’s problems begin long before they arrive at our door post-16. This is why we are increasing our focus on preventing youth homelessness by identifying and supporting young people at an earlier stage.

You will work closely with participating secondary schools to complete the Upstream survey with students. You will be working 1-1 with the students who are identifying as being most at risk of becoming homeless in the future, delivering family mediation and wellbeing support. By addressing the underlying factors that put young people at risk, you will help them develop resilience, build positive relationships, and access support services if needed.

This exciting opportunity will enable you to play an integral part in shaping the delivery of this innovative project and ensure better outcomes for young people in future.
