Liverpool, Liverpool, United Kingdom We Are With You Full time

Our team in Liverpool are recruiting for a Youth Offending Team Worker, to join them in providing high quality support to a diverse client group.

Do you have a great rapport with young people? Are you passionate about educating and supporting them to navigate their way through the many issues they face today? If so, we'd love to hear from you.

Our Young Persons teams offer vital support, training and education to young people in their locality. They work with other agencies and professionals to safeguard their young clients, working with their families too where appropriate.


The work can be challenging but it's always rewarding and at With You, you'll be part of an amazing team making a real difference to people's lives.

Young Persons Recovery Worker roles will include delivering support to the Young Offending Team and providing interventions in the community to support the delivery of substance misuse awareness and harm reduction.


In this role, you'll be supporting a caseload of young people who are experiencing difficulties with substance misuse or their mental health.

You'll work with them to assess their needs, develop care plans, deliver a variety of treatments and/or refer them to other specialist support when needed.

You'll also be proactively engaging with young people to provide them with the support, training, education and guidance they need to better understand the implications of the situations they may face and the decision they may take.

Designing, developing and delivering sessions and/or materials that will resonate with young people and clearly communicate important messages to them is absolutely key to this role.

You'll need to understand how to evaluate the effectiveness of these sessions/materials so you'll know which has the greatest impact and be able to use your time with young people to its best effect.

You will be a compassionate and motivated individual, with an exceptional ability to build meaningful relationships.

We're looking for demonstrable experience working within the health, social care, criminal justice or other specialist setting, ideally with young people and with knowledge of safeguarding and partnership working.

You will be highly organised, with excellent communication skills and able to manage your time effectively, working as part of a team to ensure a high quality service is maintained.

Above all, we are looking for someone who is passionate about what we do, with a positive and engaging approach to our clients and key stakeholders.

A full job description and person specification is available on request.


If you have a disability, a learning difficulty such as dyslexia or a medical condition which you believe may affect your performance during any aspect of our selection process, we'll be happy to make reasonable adjustments to enable you to perform at your best.


REQUIRED SKILLS:

  • Working knowledge of education and prevention
  • Experience working with young people
  • Knowledge of safeguarding
  • Knowledge of substance misuse
  • Time management skills
  • The ability to work under pressure
  • Working knowledge of partnership working
  • Ability to work in a team and alone

ABOUT THE COMPANY:
