About the role:
ELMS is a specialist mental health service in Leyton supporting adults living with long-term mental health conditions to remain well, connected to their communities and out of hospital. Made up of an office base, four supported houses, a small floating support offer and a structured day programme, ELMS provides longer-term accommodation rooted in stability, trust and continuity.
As Night Concierge, you’ll be the steady presence that holds the service overnight. From 10pm to 8am, you’ll be the first point of contact for residents, the guardian of the buildings, and the calm voice on the end of the phone when reassurance is needed. You’ll take responsibility for the ELMS duty phone, offering grounding, clarity and emotional containment to residents who may need support during the night.
This is a role with quiet impact. By maintaining safety, responding proportionately to concerns and providing a consistent, compassionate presence, you’ll create the conditions that allow residents to rest, recover and continue building their lives. It’s work that requires patience, professionalism and sound judgement — and makes a real difference, even when things are quiet.
About you:
- You bring experience of supporting adults with long-term mental health needs, or working in related support or care environments.
- You’re calm, grounded and reassuring, even in uncertain or emotionally charged situations — especially when supporting people by phone.
- You’re confident working independently overnight, with good judgement about when to act and when to escalate.
- You understand the importance of clear boundaries, safety and proportionate responses, while still being warm and person-centred.
- You’re organised and reliable, with strong written skills and the ability to record and hand over information clearly and accurately.
About us:
We’re London’s leading homelessness charity – and we get things done.
In a city where hundreds are forced into homelessness every day, our work has never been more needed or more challenging. And we’re not shying away. We’re rolling up our sleeves to make change and helping over 10,000 Londoners every year. We prevent homelessness, provide safe places to live and give people the opportunity to rebuild their lives and transform their futures. And we never give up.
We’re here for Londoners wherever they are on their journey. We start with trust, building relationships that help people feel safe, supported, and ready to move forward. Every day, we put people first in everything we do, challenging injustice and barriers that keep people from the safety, stability and opportunity they deserve. We stand alongside people as they rebuild and shape a future that feels their own.
Joining Single Homeless Project means joining a team that’s bold, compassionate and determined to do better for the people we support and for each other. You’ll work alongside colleagues with lived experience, in a space that’s trans-inclusive, disability-friendly, and actively striving to be anti-oppressive and equitable.
We’re not perfect, but we’re real. We listen. We learn. And we push forward, together. Because this isn’t just a job. It’s a chance to lead with empathy, spark change, and help build a London where no one is left behind.

The Architectural Association Summer School Unit Leader Salary: Location: Reporting to: Department: Starting Date: Contract Type: Hours of work: Role Overview £4,800/ unit London – Bedford Square Summer School Head Visiting School 6th July 2026 Fixed-term Full-time; 35 hours Monday to Friday; 10am-6pm - Preparation time & Full-time (3 weeks teaching) 6th – 25th July 2026 The AA summer school welcomes applications for teaching fellows interested in leading summer school units. Ideal applicants have basic teaching experience and are ready to immerse themselves in an intense and creative environment for the month of July. This year, we are seeking applications from groups of tutors that can operate as a collective both in relationship to each other but also to run a group project with their students, promoting collaboration and collective design approaches as well as considering the implications of shared intellectual ownership. Learning from London: London; not a unified vision but a continuum of habits, infrastructures, signs, regulations, exceptions and compromises. London resists singularity and denies authorship. Architects learn from anything; they especially learn from looking at the city, paying attention to both its perks and its inconsistencies. This summer school debunks the myth of the sublime city and rejects the cult of the isolated architectural object. Instead, we choose to study what actually shapes the city and its architecture. Scale is of no importance: from the river and the parks to specific geometrical quirks of Victorian architecture, from heroic buildings gestures to the relentless accumulation of the ordinary, studying London is about challenging the limits of architecture as an autonomous discipline. This summer, we are going to produce multiple Londons as a critical practice of interpretation.

TUTOR CALL 2026 Job Title: Summer School Unit Leader Salary: £4,800/ unit Contract Type: Fixed Term Department: Visiting School Reports to: Summer School Head Hours: Preparation time and Full-time (3 weeks teaching) 6-25July 2026 Role Overview: The AA summer school welcomes applications for teaching fellows interested in leading summer school units. Ideal applicants have basic teaching experience and are ready to immerse themselves in an intense and creative environment for the month of July. This year, we are seeking applications from groups of tutors that can operate as a collective both in relationship to each other but also to run a group project with their students, promoting collaboration and collective design approaches as well as considering the implications of shared intellectual ownership. Learning from London: London; not a unified vision but a continuum of habits, infrastructures, signs, regulations, exceptions and compromises. London resists singularity and denies authorship. Architects learn from anything; they especially learn from looking at the city, paying attention to both its perks and its inconsistencies. This summer school debunks the myth of the sublime city and rejects the cult of the isolated architectural object. Instead, 1 we choose to study what actually shapes the city and its architecture.
