Hi Thanks for asking about our role of Housekeeper. We are a dynamic and professional group of people working to create a fairer society through helping to improve the lives of people suffering homelessness and preventing people from becoming homeless and we’re always looking forward to welcoming new, like-minded, people into our team. This is an important time for us as we meet the many challenges in the sector and in the whole of society and we are always looking for ways to stay ahead of the field and to achieve more for the people that rely on our services. To find out more about our work, go to www.wearetrinity.org.uk If you want an exciting challenge with an aspiring organisation then please write to us and tell us about yourself and why you want to work with us and please include your current CV. I look forward to hearing from you. Best wishes, Natalie Room Housing Resource Team Why work for us? Trinity is all about creating a fairer society through ending homelessness. Homelessness in Britain is the result of treating housing as a commodity rather than a human right. It is rooted in privilege, wealth and power and policies that are inconsistent with human rights – neglecting or failing to respond adequately to the needs of the most disadvantaged in response to crises or economic developments. The response should be clear: we must commit to ending homelessness. This would, in fact, be in line with the global target to ensure adequate housing for all by 2030, which was committed to in the UN’s sustainable development goals. Why work for us…? Because we believe deeply in justice and we are a community of committed people who want to make our lives count in leaving a legacy that makes the world a better place. We have deeply held values and ethics and a high degree of self-directed performance. We have a positive coaching culture and we are solution focussed. There is a genuine and deeply felt commitment to continuous improvement and an aspirational approach to the future and we will not stop until everyone has a home…or at least a bed for the night. Other reasons: Great people We currently have a team of 50+ gifted, friendly, funny people who come for a job and stay for a purpose. Flexible working Some roles dictate that you’ve got to be somewhere at a certain time. Outside of this we value autonomy and work-life balance and we trust our people to manage their own time. Above average local pay Pension Good annual leave Maternity and paternity leave We look after you when you’re sick or need time off Self-directed learning A day off for your birthday And an all-expenses paid holiday (Okay… no free holiday) “This is one of the happiest places I’ve ever worked. I look forward to coming in the mornings.” What we do Trinity Homeless Projects (Trinity) is a registered Charity working in West London and Slough to end homelessness. Hillingdon is one of London’s largest Boroughs and we are the largest provider of Supported Accommodation in the Borough. We currently have 50 properties housing over 200 people. We employ full-time trained Coaches who offer between one and four hours coaching per resident per week depending on need and risk. Resident’s needs and risks are reviewed by the Team every week. Coaches are trained NLP Master Practitioners and receive monthly individual and team coaching. We map our progress through a Strengths Chart that focuses on assets not deficits and our ex-resident surveys consistently show that > 80% of people that move on from our Supported Housing remain securely housed after 12 months, making Trinity a long-term solution to homelessness. We have two large furniture recycling stores that deliver employment training and saves over 2,300 tons of C02 every year and we provide training and education to over 150 businesses, schools and colleges in an effort to prevent homelessness and rough sleeping. We run a Reconnection Service for people sleeping rough at Heathrow and our Day Service (SHOC) in Slough work with about 100 people every week. We lease properties from the Private Rented Sector and create licensed HMOs. Private landlords like our offer; we pay market rates, provide 24 hour call out and we’re good neighbours. We charge between £200 and £260 per week Enhanced Housing Benefit which is comparable with other providers but our rents are unaffordable once someone secures a job and we are at risk of constant Welfare Reform and it is essential that we create a supply of affordable housing, at LHA rate. We have a strategy with mapped pathways that can provide a local system where no one need to suffer homelessness again. “Trinity is amazing, they have taught me how to be positive and how to stay strong and focussed on my life” Our Theory of Change Everyone has the right to a home…or at least a bed for the night “Without Trinity I don’t know where I would be, it’s made me see life again” Life expec...
