Job Introduction
Turning Point is a leading Social Enterprise which supports people with a wide range of complex needs across Learning Disabilities, Mental Health, Substance Use and Public Health. We are currently recruiting for a Safeguarding Lead to work in our Integrated all age Substance Use Service (Inspiring Recovery and Inspiring Futures), where you’ll have the chance to make a real difference to the lives of the people we support who are experiencing difficulties from drugs and alcohol usage.
Passionate about people, you’ll enjoy the opportunity and support to enhance your own life and career too, as you gain the experience and training you need to progress in your career within a social enterprise. So if you’re ambitious and ready for a fresh challenge with a sector leader then this could be the opportunity for you.
Running health and social care services as a social enterprise, we invest every penny back into our care – and our people. So, if you’re ambitious and ready for a fresh challenge, progress your career with a sector leader.
Role Responsibility
To assist in delivering Turning Point’s Substance Use strategy within an integrated service which reflects our person centred values and the high levels of ambition we have both for the recovery of the individuals for whom we provide support and the development of our own staff.  This is done by assisting the Deputy Operations Manager in leading, developing and co-ordinating the Children and Adult Safeguarding practices to ensure the delivery of high quality, innovative and cost effective care.
The Ideal Candidate
An inspiring role model, we'll expect you to already have experience of Safeguarding within a drug and alcohol setting. Building relationships with colleagues, commissioners and service users alike will be a big part of what you do, we’re also looking for a Safeguarding Lead who can confidently engage, challenge and influence people. 
Experience of representing the Service at Multi-disciplinary meetings where the voice and needs of those most vulnerable and at risk should be paramount to shaping practice and service.
