This is a permanent, full time role, working as part of our Rotherham service - ROADS is an all age service for those who would like support around their drug and/or alcohol use.

The postholder will work as part of an integrated network of dedicated professionals supporting families affected by parent/carer substance misuse. As part of this role, you will offer family focussed interventions which reduce the impact of substance misuse in families, particularly on children and young people, whilst working to raise awareness of and improve access to appropriate services for family members. It will be vital for you to develop strong and positive relationships with service users and their families, whilst managing an active caseload and ensuring continuity of care.

**As part of this role, you will**:

You will have demonstrable experience of working in the health, social care or family setting, with the ability to connect quickly with service users and families, specially in relation to substance misuse education and prevention. It is important that you are self-motivated and resilient, as well as comfortable working alone and on a one to one basis.

Above all, we are looking for someone who is empathetic and values-driven and has the drive to make real changes, using a positive and engaging approach.
