Door Person/Support Worker

25 days holiday entitlement

The Shrewsbury Ark provides the basic things most people take for granted. Our clients rely on us for warm clothes, bedding, personal items and a hot meal or cup of tea and a chat when they need it. We work in partnership with several organisations where we support clients to access the services to enable them to move on in their lives. We offer an environment to change positively and develop life skills. The Shrewsbury Ark operates an outreach programme and aims to provide ongoing support when people move into their own accommodation.

The Shrewsbury Ark operates with a team of 5 paid staff (full and part time) and 50 volunteers.

We are looking for an additional part time member of staff, working on a job share basis. Persons appointed will be responsible for meeting and greeting people who attend the Day Centre.
