We have an exciting opportunity at Derbyshire Recovery Partnership for someone who is passionate about helping people and making a difference. This role will be based in Ripley, a picturesque market town in Derbyshire just off the A38, working 30 hours per week within our office opening hours of Monday-Friday 9am-5pm.

We are looking for a Substance Misuse Practitioner to manage a caseload of service users presenting with drug and alcohol issues. The role will involve offering a range of harm reduction interventions and structured key working, helping engage service users in a care-planned and recovery focussed way to attain improved health outcomes and achieve their personalised treatment goals.

This will involve you effectively organising and delivering 1-2-1 care-planned support and facilitating group work sessions as required, using appropriate models, interventions and approaches tailored to meet the individual needs of service users. Furthermore, you will support them in their individual, person-centred journey to build recovery capital by partnership working with other support agencies and local projects.

We believe in being the best and that is why we constantly strive to learn and innovate, to challenge ourselves, to adapt and to work together with others who can bring valuable expertise. Join us and we will support you to contribute to the creative development of our treatment and recovery approach to meet the needs of our service users, our commissioners and stakeholders. You’ll also have access a range of learning and development opportunities to support your personal and professional development.
