About the Role
The Social Work Supervisor provides cross-site leadership and oversight of social work and case management services across assigned residential properties. The Supervisor is responsible for staff supervision, practice guidance, quality assurance, complex-case consultation, and ensuring consistent, person-centered services that promote housing stability and long-term well-being.
Responsibilities
- Provide cross-site supervision and practice oversight for Social Workers, Lead Social Workers, and Case Managers, ensuring consistent implementation of the resident service model across assigned properties.
- Provide regular individual and/or group supervision, coaching, case consultation, and professional development to strengthen staff practice, performance, and accountability.
- Support Social Workers and Lead Social Workers in managing higher-acuity caseloads, complex resident needs, crisis situations, and appropriate service planning and intervention.
- Serve as the primary escalation point for complex cases, significant safety concerns, crises, and other situations requiring additional consultation or organizational response.
- Review case documentation, assessments, service plans, referrals, and other records to support quality, timeliness, confidentiality, and compliance with agency and program expectations.
- Establish and reinforce case assignment, triage, referral, and escalation protocols to ensure residents receive the appropriate level of support from Case Managers, Lead Social Workers, Social Workers, or external providers.
- Monitor caseload distribution, resident acuity, staff capacity, and service utilization across sites and recommend adjustments as needed.
- Coordinate staff training and development based on identified practice trends, performance needs, and service gaps to support continuous quality improvement.
- Develop and maintain relationships with internal partners, community-based organizations, and other service providers to strengthen referral pathways and access to resources.
- Support coordination across sites to ensure residents have equitable access to services, resources, workshops, and other opportunities.
- Participate in program planning, implementation, reporting, meetings, and other activities necessary to support the overall housing stabilization initiative.
- Communicate significant programmatic, staffing, safety, partnership, or service-delivery concerns to designated ESH leadership and support appropriate resolution.
- Provide direct support or short-term case intervention in exceptionally complex or high-risk situations when additional social work expertise is needed, while maintaining the Supervisor’s primary responsibility for staff supervision, practice oversight, and service quality rather than a routine caseload.
- Provide leadership in developing, implementing, and maintaining consistent social services practices, workflows, documentation standards, referral pathways, and quality expectations across assigned sites.
Requirements
- Master’s degree in Social Work (MSW) from an accredited institution required.
- Minimum of 3–5 years of post-graduate social work experience, preferably working with individuals and families experiencing homelessness, housing instability, poverty, behavioral health needs, or other complex social service needs.
- Minimum of two years of supervisory or leadership experience strongly preferred.
- Experience with case management, crisis intervention, trauma-informed care, and community-based service delivery.
- Strong knowledge of New York City social services systems and available community-based resources.
- Demonstrated ability to provide effective staff supervision, case consultation, coaching, and performance guidance.
- Strong communication, documentation, organizational, problem-solving, and interdisciplinary collaboration skills.
- Ability to balance supportive supervision, accountability, program quality, and participant-centered practice.
- Employment with East Side House is contingent upon successful completion of all required background checks, clearances, and/or screenings applicable to the position.
