Crisis is the national charity for people experiencing homelessness. We have embarked on our new 10-year strategy for ending homelessness. We know it is not inevitable. We know together we can end it.

• Coordinate and support a co-located and co-working integrated neighbourhood team, consisting of statutory, health and voluntary sector partners, as well as community groups and residents to meet locally agreed strategic objectives, by providing a whole system, joined up experience for individuals, which is preventative, proactive, person-centred and relational.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with a range of stakeholders fostering a learning culture which is adaptable, collaborative and flexible.
• Develop local systems to support Brent Council’s radical place making approach by setting up new services and cross service teams, including contribution to the development of an operating and outcomes measurement approach.
• Utilise learning from the RPL lead approach, the integrated neighbourhood team and casework delivered on upstream prevention to feed into Crisis strategy and place-based approaches.
• Support and influencing place-based and data-led change

• Experience or understanding of housing/ homelessness, adult social care, health, criminal justice, or other relevant sectors, with an ability to work across boundaries is essential and you will have an understanding of involving vulnerable and excluded people in improving systems.
• You have excellent communication skills and influencing skills to understand and harness the value of different competencies, progressional backgrounds, skills and experiences within the integrated neighbourhood team and other audiences.
• The successful candidate has experience of using data and insight to drive decision making, ability to interpret and analyse complex issues, clearly communicating key concepts.
• You will demonstrate commitment to Crisis’ purpose and values, alongside Brent Council’s values .
