We are looking to recruit motivated, reflective, creative practitioners who are committed to building strength-based relationships with young people. Our model of practice focuses on creating relationships with young people and their network, to build intervention plans with the young people being at the forefront of how the interventions are undertaken and reviewed. We are looking for people who enjoy working with adolescent aged young people, who can use their skills and knowledge to deliver evidenced-based structured interventions and be part of service development.

You will work with the multiagency practitioners within the adolescent service and partner agencies, to identify and meet children & young people's needs around substance use and connected issues related to Mental Health, Sexual Health and Exploitation.

We take a creative and innovative approach in responding to young people's needs, focussing on the effectiveness of trusting relationships, particularly with those young people with experience of trauma and attachment difficulties. This can require workers to utilise their skills and knowledge in undertaking tasks which sit outside traditional specialist roles. We believe in a "Team Around the Worker" model, which involves our workers receiving or offering specialist support and guidance within complex networks.

The post holder will support practitioner to co-create and deliver interventions, alongside young people experiencing problems with their substances use.

You will work collaboratively with the manager to create a pathway for young people transitioning from RU-OK? to statutory and adult substance use services. You will also be required to work in partnership with a number of other services to create a more comprehensive understanding of how best to work with young people who are experiencing harm through their substance use and connected issue such as exploitation and mental health.

The role offers opportunities to deliver training and consultation across the city. You will also have access to the council's comprehensive learning and development offer.
