JH Bristol is a trading name of the charity Julian House, a well-established provider of accommodation and support services for people affected by homelessness across the South West of England.

Salary: £25,235 per year
Hours: 37.5 hours per week

Additional Information
Are you passionate about supporting people to build brighter futures? As a Supported Housing Worker, you’ll play a key role in helping clients maintain safe accommodation and make positive life changes.
You’ll manage referrals, assess needs, and provide tailored support to individuals across Bristol and South Gloucestershire. This includes helping clients navigate benefit claims, budgeting, and maintaining their accommodation to high health and safety standards.
Collaboration is at the heart of this role—you’ll build strong relationships with partner agencies and work closely with volunteers to create multi-agency support plans that truly make a difference.
You’ll also be responsible for keeping accurate records of client interactions and may support reporting to funders and partners. The role involves regular travel to supported housing properties and community meetings, so flexibility and a proactive approach are essential.
In return, you’ll be part of a supportive team environment, with regular one-to-one supervision and access to group support. If you're ready to take on a varied and rewarding role that combines practical support with meaningful impact, we’d love to hear from you.
What You’ll Be Doing
What We’re Looking For
As an Equal Opportunities employer, we have an Equality and Diversity Action plan in place showing our commitment in ensuring continuous improvement in creating an inclusive culture. We also have a committed group of Inclusion & Diversity champions who meet monthly to ensure progress is being made.
We invite applications from people from all backgrounds and cultures, especially minority groups that are underrepresented in the workplace. We also welcome applications from those with lived experience. We embrace flexibility and are proud to be a Disability Confident and Mindful employer, as well as an Armed Forces Covenant Supporter.
If you have any special access requirements or other support needs throughout the application process (including the interview), please contact us so that we can let you know how we can support you.
DBS Checks
We welcome applications from people with lived experience. All applicants working with our clients will be expected to undertake an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check. A criminal conviction will not necessarily prevent you from becoming an employee; the decision will depend on the type of offence and its relevance to the role. If you would like to discuss any convictions you may have, please contact the person named in the advert.
All information will be dealt with according to our Data Protection Policy.
Please note: We reserve the right to close our vacancies once the perfect candidate has been found. We recommend submitting your application as soon as possible so that you don’t miss out!
