It's an exciting time to join the MEAM (Making Every Adult Matter) and Rough Sleeping service in Hull, as one of 15 successful areas in the government-funded Changing Futures Programme, we are at the start of a transformation journey to deliver system change for rough sleepers and others who experience severe and multiple disadvantage (SMD) in the city. The Programme is multi-faceted and based on strong partnerships with health, criminal justice and voluntary and community sector partners.
We are seeking to recruit additional MEAM Navigators, funded through the Changing Futures Programme, to provide a person-centred and trauma informed approach to co-ordinating support for individuals who experience SMD. Working directly with individuals to build trust and supporting them to access a range of services to enable them to achieve their goals.
The post holders will have excellent interpersonal skills with empathy and the ability to work in an empowering and enabling way with individuals who have a history of rough sleeping and experience SMD. Previous experience of working with vulnerable people with a wide range of complex needs and working with a person-centred and trauma-informed approach are essential as well as a good knowledge of housing and support services.
The posts will be pivotal in delivering the required system change to end multiple disadvantage and rough sleeping in Hull.
These posts are fixed term until 31 March 2025 due to funding.
