About Haringey
Haringey is a fantastic place to live and work – the world in one borough. A place brimming with creativity, personality, radicalism, and community. It is a place where we stand up for each other. A place that is proudly distinctive. We’ll be celebrating all this and more as the “rebel borough” when we are the 2027 London Borough of Culture.
Our history champions change‑makers and everyday rebels; revelling in our differences, battling discrimination, championing equality, and doing things our own way. Haringey’s people are a huge asset, with knowledge, expertise, and passion. Our staff members embody our organisational values: Caring, Creative, Courageous, Collaborative and Community‑focused. These values keep us looking forward, ambitious for the future, and continuously striving to do our very best for all of our residents.
About the role
As a Support and Wellbeing Worker, you will deliver person‑centred support to residents both within supported housing schemes and the wider community, helping them to maintain their tenancies and live independently. You will work closely with individuals to assess their needs, develop tailored support plans, and provide practical guidance around areas such as health, finances, housing and daily living. This is a highly rewarding role where you will build trusted relationships, carry out wellbeing checks, and help reduce social isolation by connecting residents with services and community opportunities. Your work will have a direct impact on improving quality of life and promoting independence for older and vulnerable residents.
About the team
You will be part of a dedicated Support and Wellbeing service within Housing and Placemaking, working alongside Hub Coordinators, Team Managers and partner agencies to deliver a flexible, outcome‑focused service. The team collaborates closely with statutory and voluntary organisations to ensure residents can access the right support at the right time. It is a supportive, community‑focused environment where teamwork, empathy and professionalism are key, and where staff are encouraged to build strong partnerships to improve outcomes for residents across Haringey.
About you
You will be a compassionate and organised individual with experience of working with older people or vulnerable clients, and an understanding of housing‑related support needs. You will be confident carrying out assessments, managing risk and handling sensitive situations, while communicating effectively with a wide range of stakeholders. With strong organisational skills and a proactive, “can‑do” approach, you will be able to manage your own workload, adapt to changing needs and deliver high‑quality support. Most importantly, you will be motivated by helping others to live independently and improving wellbeing within the community.
