Night Concierge Staff for Homeless Hostels in Aberdeen

HHS Group supplies vetted Night Concierges to homeless hostels, supported accommodation and emergency shelters across Aberdeen and the surrounding area, including Westhill, Ellon, Inverurie and Stonehaven, working with local authorities, housing associations and homelessness charities.

Night Concierge cover across Aberdeen

A Night Concierge provides overnight building presence and access control — checking who comes and goes, holding keys, monitoring entry points and CCTV, and being the calm first point of contact if something happens after hours. This is distinct from our Night Support Workers, who focus on resident welfare and casework rather than access control; many Aberdeen sites run both roles side by side.

We cover hostels and supported housing sites across Aberdeen and the wider area, including Westhill, Ellon, Inverurie and Stonehaven. See our Aberdeen area page for the full range of roles we supply locally.

Contract Cover and Agency Cover in Aberdeen

Some Aberdeen sites use our fully outsourced Contract Cover service, where we take complete responsibility for concierge staffing on an ongoing basis. For a one-off shift, sickness cover or an unexpected rota gap, our reactive Agency Cover service supplies a vetted concierge with no ongoing commitment — including short-notice cover when a Severe Weather Emergency Protocol (SWEP) is activated or an emergency winter night shelter opens locally.

Vetting and Training for Our Overnight Concierge Staff in Aberdeen

Every member of staff we deploy in Aberdeen for this role is Child and Adult Enhanced DBS checked and completes a site-specific induction before their first shift, alongside our full training package covering conflict management, safeguarding, fire safety and lone working. See the complete detail on our national Night Concierge page and our vetting, training and safeguarding standards.

In 2024/25, 127 households per 10,000 were assessed as homeless in Aberdeen City, according to Aberdeen City Council’s analysis of official homelessness returns; this is an assessment rate, not a rough-sleeping count. The council’s 24-hour homelessness helpline is 0800 917 6379; Aberdeen Cyrenians and Aberdeen Foyer offer additional local support, while no authoritative complete current hostel register was found. Night Concierges we place locally build this kind of context into overnight access control and knowing when to escalate an incident.
