Empowerment & Admin Worker - Bristol Churches Shelter

Could you contribute towards Bristol Churches Shelter's provision of emergency accommodation for those who would otherwise sleep rough, in a car or in a tent over the winter in Bristol? If so, we'd love to hear from you.
Over the next winter the shelter is planned to be open between November and March. This is subject to confirmation of funding. Planning starts in earnest in September 24. The shelter provides 9 en-suite rooms with main meals provided by volunteers from across Bristol churches. Guests are empowered to move-on into sustainable accommodation.
This role is about providing hands-on support to running the shelter over the winter. You will be supporting and empowering guests to sustain work, access work, seek meaningful activities, seek viable move-on options and build self-confidence and self-esteem. It will also involve working closely with the planning team led by the coordinators, and with volunteers. To be successful in this role you will be well organised, approachable and empathetic, have good personal boundaries and have a heart to serve. You will be line managed by the Senior Coordinator.
We are seeking an Empowerment & Admin Worker to join the small staff team. The role will start in mid-September subject to confirmation of funding being secured.

inHope is an established Christian charity with a broad support base that has been working in Bristol since the mid-80's. We are dedicated to helping those with life disrupting problems, such as food poverty, homelessness and addiction, to reach their God given potential free from injustice and insecurity.
