SouthendonSea, United Kingdom Richmond Fellowship Full time

JR007736

You’re caring, flexible and creative, thrive under pressure, know how to connect with people at all levels and really enjoy helping others to live as independently as possible. You’d also like to be part of an organisation that counts on the professionalism, insight, expertise and passion of its staff to inspire individual recovery for the people they work with. Welcome to Richmond Fellowship’s Hope Lodge as a Recovery Worker.

Southend Supported Housing Services provides supported accommodation for individuals with medium to high mental health support needs. Hope Lodge is a 33 bed supported accommodation service in Southend on Sea.  Century House has 6 flats, and Preston Road has 7 flats in Westcliff on Sea, with 3 independent flats in the local community.  We provide 1:1 support, key working, peer support and group activities to encourage the people we support to move towards recovery and independence.

We know that recovery can look and feel very different to each and every one of us. But we also know that if we provide the right support, at the right time, we can inspire recovery nationwide and that recovery is possible for everyone.

That’s where you come in. Responsible for helping and inspiring the people who use our services to maintain their tenancy and independence in the community, we’ll rely on you to work with them to come up with a personal support plan that will see them achieve their goals and aspirations. Whether it’s developing their domestic and finance management skills or accessing work, leisure or educational opportunities, one thing’s for sure ‐ you will have every chance to shine.

Some experience supporting people to increase independence and well-being levels is required and candidates with an understanding of mental health issues and/or lived experience would be welcomed. More important is your caring and compassionate nature and empathy and enthusiasm for helping others. Whatever your background, you’ll need to be happy to work both independently and within a team and willing to be part of a weekly rota system and available for on call duties.

In return for your skills and enthusiasm, this role comes with some really great benefits and excellent training and development opportunities.

This is a permanent full-time role requiring the post holder to work 37.5 hours per week. There are 4 Recovery Worker positions available for this post.

The post holders will be required to work shifts within a 7 day rolling rota, including between 1‐2 night sleep in shifts per week.

We are committed to increasing our diversity and welcome applications from those with Lived Experience.

To apply, please visit our website and send a CV and covering letter explaining why you feel you are right for the role.

This is a rolling recruitment process. Candidates will be interviewed as and when they are shortlisted.

Richmond Fellowship is part of Recovery Focus, a national group of charities highly experienced in providing specialist support services to individuals and families living with the effects of mental ill health, drug and alcohol use, gambling and domestic violence. From 1st June 2024 Richmond Fellowship will be merging with the mental health charity Humankind to form a single organisation that provides the joined-up mental health, housing and drug and alcohol support we’ve all known has been needed for decades. In October 2024, Humankind will then be renamed to reflect the new, bigger and better organisation.
