About the Role

We’re pleased to announce an excellent opportunity for a Liaison Caseworker to join our Lotus Project.  The Bridge Project has been providing support since 1983.  We work with individuals, families and communities to improve people’s lives in a sustainable way, recognising that solutions are often complex.  Today we have a strong staff team of 110 dedicated individuals who address a range of issues such as homelessness, substance misuse, sex working, housing, employment and lots more.

The aim of the Lotus Project is to engage and support individuals, of any gender, to divert from or exit from sex work through a range of support infrastructures for themselves and their families.  You will contribute to this through proactive engagement with our clients, by undertaking needs led assessments and providing a fully mobilised comprehensive package of support that will assist individuals to work towards and make a positive sustained exit.  You will support individuals who have multiple needs and who may also be experiencing a significant myriad of risks making it crucial that you are able to work with them in a flexible, responsive manner to militate against the risks.  This will require you to work with a diverse range of services and to operate within a multidisciplinary delivery model ensuring that a proactive service is provided to the client group.

We are looking for someone who has a minimum of 2 years full-time experience in direct casework delivery for individuals with multiple needs.   You will be highly organised with excellent communication skills and able to manage your time effectively, working as part of the team to ensure a high-quality service is maintained.  The role is a full-time permanent position.  It is essential that you have a driving licence with access to a vehicle and business insurance.  A willingness to undergo an enhanced DBS check is also a requirement of the post.

If you are passionate about what we do and would thrive working as part of our supportive and positive staff team, we’d love to hear from you.
