Project Description
Rapid Rehousing is based around the ethos that housing is a human right and differs from traditional supported housing and homelessness provision that places a number of conditions on people to prove that they are ready for independent housing.
Following similar principles set out by the Housing First model, Rapid Rehousing is a housing led approach with CTI critical time interventions to successfully support people with repeat histories of homelessness, who experience multiple disadvantages, into independent and stable accommodation, through the provision of intensive wrap-around and trauma informed support.
The principles of Housing First are:
- People have a right to a home
- Flexible support is provided for as long as is needed
- Housing and support are separated
- Individuals have choice and control (restricted housing choices with RRH)
- An active and assertive engagement approach is used
- People are supported to identify their strengths, goals and aspirations
- A harm reduction approach is used
Purpose of Role
The Rapid Rehousing Worker will be responsible for coordinating and providing a flexible person centred, solution focused service, applying an assertive engagement and positive risk-taking approach, using Housing First principles but with a view to rapidly addressing a person’s housing need. Within legal, moral and ethical boundaries, Rapid rehousing provision relies on staff being committed to the ethos, applying a ‘can do, will do’ approach, that focuses on the long-term goal of creating sustainable tenancies and maximising connectivity with the local community. The Worker will be working in a capacity to enable clients to access the services and interventions they need to build their resilience, gain confidence, reduce harm and acquire the personal and social skills they need to meet their aspirations and sustain their tenancy.
The successful applicant will be expected to:
- Manage a caseload and establish open and trusting relationships
- Deliver support and drop in sessions in temporary accommodation settings including bed and breakfasts
- Deliver trauma informed support
- Advise on, liaise with and facilitate access to other agencies including; Housing Options, Registered Social Landlords, Private Rented Sector, Adult Social Services, Criminal Justice Services and Drug and Alcohol Services.
This role is subject to an Enhanced DBS disclosure.

Bilton Evangelical Church (BEC)
BEC has been an independent church in the centre of the local Bilton community since its formation in 1974. It is a vibrant, growing church with a congregation of around 200 adult members, 50 youth and 35 children from across the town and surrounding villages. We are blessed with diverse generations and cultures. At BEC, our vision is 'Seeing transformation, in Rugby and beyond, as everyone follows Jesus'. Our mission is to ‘equip communities of disciples who make new disciples’. As we seek to fulfil this mission, we are enthusiastically evangelical, holding the Bible as the living word of God, and very open to the work of the Holy Spirit. In our services at the BEC Centre we acknowledge and welcome God’s presence and His gifts to us through His Spirit, as we create space for Him to guide, equip, and encourage us. The majority of the church also gathers mid-week in homes for one of our 19 adult Life Groups to disciple one another and do life together through relationship and fellowship.
This Associate Minister post, open to ordained men and women, is an Incumbent-status post, similar to that of many Team Vicar roles. It carries a large degree of autonomy, but with the support of a wider team. The role combines responsibility for the day-to-day running and leadership of Townfield Church, with shared ministry across the parish under the leadership of the Rector.
We are a two-church evangelical parish in a suburban area of the Wirral. St Andrew’s is an ancient church, dating back over 900 years, with a long evangelical history. Townfield is our most recent church plant, having started in 1992 in the church school. It is now an established church in its own right, serving the school community and nearby area whilst remaining a part of the parish, and operating in close partnership with St Andrew’s Church.
We are seeking a minister who:
· has a love for Jesus and for people
· is a gifted and flexible Bible teacher and preacher
· is committed to personal and corporate prayer
· has a passion for reaching the lost and nurturing the Christian faith
· is a collaborative team player
· models grace and truth in life, ministry and leadership
The post is fixed for the maximum legally permissible 5-year term, which will be renewable. Funding for this post is secure.
· Closing date: 8 February 2026
· Interviews: 6 March 2026
You are very welcome to contact the Rector, Revd David Vestergaard, for an informal conversation on david@standrewsbebington.org.uk or 0151 458 2794.
