About Us
Launch Housing has an ambitious and singular mission to end homelessness. We aim to get people housed, keep them housed, and be an influential voice on ending homelessness. Formed in 2015 following the merger of two well-respected agencies – Hanover Welfare Services and HomeGround Services, we are a secular, independent provider of choice for clients and the ‘go-to’ organisation on homelessness for government, media, philanthropy, private donors and the community.
The Role
We are currently seeking an enthusiastic person to join our case management team at our Cheltenham site in the role of Case Manager to support clients who are homeless or are at risk of homelessness. This includes singles, couples and families in our transitional support programs. The Case Manager works intensively with a small case load of clients, building engagement over time in order to meet case plan goals.
About You
To be successful in this role, you will have a passion for working with people experiencing homelessness and a determination to deliver innovative and effective services of the highest possible standard for our clients.
You will also have the following:
- A demonstrated ability to achieve quality client outcomes
- An understanding of the Victorian homelessness service system particularly with regards to crisis and social housing
- Experience working with people with multiple and complex needs due to dual diagnosis, domestic and family violence and/or psychological trauma
- Ability to engage and communicate effectively with clients, key stakeholders and external service providers
- Ability to respond to and manage critical incidents in a timely manner
- Experience working independently and as part of a dynamic, multi-disciplinary team
This exciting and challenging position offers applicants the opportunity to build and empower the lives of people experiencing homelessness.
