Think of a time when you’ve needed help.

Was it easy to find? Were the choices confusing?

Our Navigators support people with complex needs and adult carers to assess what they want to change, find out what services could help them, and make informed choices that will enhance their lives.

We are looking for new team members in Dartford, Gravesham and Swanley to help people improve their confidence and motivation, and set and achieve personal goals. Navigators travel within their allocated area so you will need a car for the role.

You will meet people in their own homes or community venues to carry out holistic or statutory assessments, develop action plans, and provide information, advice and guidance to support positive change. You might help one person solve housing and debt issues, and then help the next family to arrange respite, apply for funding for a mobility scooter and join a carers’ group so they feel less alone. It’s all about finding the right support for each person.

Through research, networking and partnership working, you will develop a wide-ranging knowledge of community, health and social care services, so that you can achieve the best options and outcomes for the people you work with.

We know this support works because clients and families tell us so.

We want people who are… empathetic, resilient, organised, methodical, intuitive, problem-solving, flexible, motivated, hard-working… does that sound like you?

You may have relevant professional or personal experience, be a recent college or university leaver, or someone who is looking to go in a different direction and feel you have what we’re looking for.

Still interested?… apply now.
