Leicester, United Kingdom Turning Point Full time

**Job Introduction**:
At Turning Point we support many people across the UK with complex mental health issues. As a Mental Health Recovery Worker, you’ll make a difference to people’s lives as you support them on their Recovery journey and introduce them to the person centred, flexible and realistic support they need to improve the quality of their lives within the community. Passionate about people, you’ll enjoy the scope and support to enhance your own life and career too, as you gain the experience, training and education you need to progress in your career with us.

Leicestershire and Rutland crisis service was established in 2015 to work with people experiencing a mental health crisis who may otherwise need an admission to hospital. We aim to assist service users to overcome their crisis in variety of ways including one to one and group support, practical strategies to cope with symptoms, and advice and information to improve the person’s ability to live independently.

**Role Responsibility**:
Working closely with other agencies to ensure that appropriate care and risk management plans are delivered, you will work in a variety of settings including a 6 bed crisis house; in the community delivering a range of outreach crisis support including out of hours crisis cafes; and via a 24/7 telephone Helpline. Due to varying locations where we deliver this support, (which includes both the City and the County of Leicester, Leicestershire & Rutland) it is essential you either have access to transport or are willing to use public transport in order for you to carry out your day to day role.

You need to be flexible to work various shift patterns including weekends, bank holidays and overnights.

We’re looking for Recovery Workers who know how to build close relationships and gain people’s trust quickly. Although a qualification in Social Care would be an advantage, you don’t need any formal qualifications as full training will be given. Experience in a similar role and/or working on a helpline would also be a big advantage. What is essential is that you have a positive attitude, a willingness to ‘go the extra mile’ and an awareness of the issues experienced by people with mental health problems and can bring with you the flexibility to work in a 24-hour shift pattern. In return, you’ll be supported with outstanding training and career development opportunities.

In a role where no two days are the same your ability to work individually and as part of team to prioritise your workload, as well as having excellent communication skills, a flexible approach and a positive attitude in a changeable environment will be key.

**About us**:
As a leading health and social care provider with more than 300 locations across England, we take real pride in the services we offer.

Across the varied regions, sectors and settings we operate within, our organisation is held together by a shared vision - and our people are connected by the same values. These include belief in potential, confidence in communication, embracing positive change and always treating each other as individuals.

We run all of our services on a not-for-profit basis; instead, we invest every penny back into our services and people. We never stop believing in change for the better, and we work constantly to improve the lives of the people we support.

Our people bring our vision to life. So, if you are enthusiastic, motivated and committed to support others to fulfilling their potential, here at Turning Point, we don't just offer you a job - we offer you a career.

**What benefits will I receive?**

We know reward looks different to each person and so whether its ways to make your money go further, a culture supporting recognition and celebration, or opportunities to boost your career - we want to support you in every way we can with our total reward package that includes:

- Comprehensive learning and development opportunities so we can invest in your future - we’re proud to have a silver accreditation from _Investors in People. _Choose from our range of courses to gain recognised qualifications
- 28 days’ paid holiday a year, increasing with each year of service up to 30 days. Plus the option to buy or sell additional holidays and spread the cost
- An exclusive discounts hub for TP colleagues, to help make your money go further - including high street shopping, pubs and restaurants, mobile phones, gym memberships, and much more. You’ll also have access to the Blue Light Card, for even more discounts and savings
