**Do you have compassion and empathy for people who are struggling with their mental wellbeing? Could you inspire hope for people who are struggling with their mental health to access physical health services?**

**About the role**

Second Step Recovery Navigators are committed to working with a recovery-based approach and supporting people to meet their individual needs.

You will be contacting them by telephone to explain the purpose of the Physical Health Check and what’s involved and book their appointment. After they have received their Physical Health Check, you will be contacting them to support them to identify local services that may help them to improve their physical health, for example, a walking group or gym membership.

You will also support people to access Second Step’s small grant funds that can be used to pay for gym memberships and exercise classes.

You will be part of a friendly team, with direct support from a Line Manager.

**What we offer**

You will be provided with an in-depth induction to Second Step and all the relevant training and support you need to do your job well.

Our employee support package includes; monthly one-to-one sessions with your line manager, monthly group reflective practice with your wider team and an employee assistive programme which offers a wide range of benefits including counselling and help with family or financial issues.
