Are you ready to be part of a bold movement to break the
cycle of poverty through sustainable home ownership? As a Social
Work Associate / Home Ownership Associate under the Home Ownership
Vertical at SCC, you will work closely in a team with the Social
Worker / Home Ownership Specialist to empower low-income families
in public rental housing to not only survive - but thrive. It is a
unique opportunity to partner with families who present low to
moderate risk but face barriers to achieving long-term stability
and home ownership.
In this role, you will
support the service delivery under the KeyStart Home Ownership
Programme and / or Fresh Start Support Programme. You'll work
collaboratively with families and ecosystem partners (such as
ComLink+) to build the families' stability in key areas :
employment, financial resilience, family functioning, and
children's education - culminating in sustainable ownership of a
home they can call their own. Your interventions will be holistic
and future-focused and help guide families in achieving tangible
and lasting progress through leveraging on national programmes like
the Fresh Start Housing Scheme, ComLink+ Progress Packages, and
KeyStart Home Ownership Programme.
This role is
for someone who is deeply passionate about transformation - someone
who sees the potential in every family and has the heart, vision,
and skills to walk alongside them toward a better future. This is
an entry pathway into the social services, offering hands-on
experience with families, exposure to housing and social policies,
and opportunities to grow in capability under the mentorship of
experienced practitioners. You'll be part of a dynamic team
committed to long-term family transformation and social mobility.
If you believe that home ownership can be a catalyst for dignity,
stability, and hope - this role is your chance to make it a reality
for those who want it most.
