Embed move-on planning into keywork, support plans, tenancy readiness work and case reviews, providing specialist advice to managers, Team Leaders, keyworkers and Resident Services colleagues. Ensure each resident has a personalised move-on plan based on need, eligibility, affordability, risk, strengths, aspirations and tenancy readiness, with clear actions, timescales and owners.

Oversee post-move tenancy sustainment support, including settling-in support, utilities, council tax, benefits, budgeting, furniture, local services, community connection and early tenancy risk intervention. Monitor tenancy sustainment outcomes, planned and delayed move-Ons, long-stayers, pathway barriers, unplanned exits and repeat homelessness risks, using learning to improve preparation and support. Provide day-to-day leadership, supervision, coaching to the Move-On Team, allocating work, monitoring case records, trackers, action plans and outcome evidence.

Contribute to Your Place move-on strategy, keep up to date with housing options, welfare benefits, LHA rates, affordability and legislation, and represent Your Place professionally with partners. Participate in supervision, appraisal, training, reflective practice, organisational meetings, flexible cross-service/community work and any other reasonable duties requested by the Service Manager or Head of Services.
