Housing Services are seeking to appoint an experienced female Support Worker to join the Gypsy & Traveller Liaison Service. The post is funded by Supporting People to provide housing related support to Gypsies and Travellers living on residential sites and on unauthorised encampments.

You will require a knowledge, understanding and empathy of cultural heritage and diversity issues experienced by this client group. You will be able to demonstrate a practical approach to supporting individuals in accessing services and enabling them to maintain their lifestyle choice within local communities.

You will be required to have access to a car for the delivery of the service to clients living across the entire County and will need to evidence a clear Criminal Records Bureau check before the commencement of duties.
