• Help develop and maintain support plans, recording changes in people's circumstances and lives.

The roles require a flexible approach to working, with full-time and part-time vacancies available. Applicants must be able to work shifts, including evenings, weekends and sleepovers.

Additional information

Kingdom Group is an inclusive employer and welcomes applications from everyone. Applications are assessed on merit, and reasonable adjustments are available at every stage of the recruitment process.

Applicants must have the right to work in the UK. Although Kingdom Group holds a sponsor licence, it does not currently have any Certificates of Sponsorship available and cannot offer sponsorship for this role. Applications dependent on sponsorship cannot therefore be progressed.

Homelessness commitment

As part of its commitment to helping eradicate homelessness, Kingdom particularly welcomes applications from people who are currently registered as homeless or have been within the past 12 months.

Applicants who meet this criterion and the essential requirements of the role will be guaranteed an interview.

Successful applicants who are homeless when offered the role will also be offered a tenancy in one of Kingdom's properties through the Naumann Initiative.

Anyone wishing to be considered under this scheme should state this in the supporting information section of their application.
