You will be able to respond flexibly, confidently and professionally to any challenges that may arise.

Stuart Kennedy, Tenancy Sustainment Team Support Worker, says “I’ve been working for New Hope for over 20 years and have found it such a rewarding job, especially when I see service users change their lives for the better. I really value working with a great team and the different skill sets they bring to the service. I love talking and listening to people and getting to know them and helping them to resolve their situation… I would recommend for anyone to apply and join these incredible New Hope services.”
