Recovery Worker

Hereford, United Kingdom Turning Point Full time

**Job Introduction**:
**Fixed Term Contract - Up to 12 Months (Permanent Available)**

**This role includes weekend working (Saturday) as standard, therefore working hours are likely to be Tuesday to Saturday to accommodate.**

At Turning Point, we support people across the UK with substance use issues. Our Herefordshire (West Midlands) Recovery Service responds to the needs of people across the county, working in locations throughout Herefordshire to maximise the opportunities for service users.

As a Recovery Worker within the Herefordshire Recovery Service, you’ll make a real difference as you empower and enable people to change. Passionate about people, you’ll enjoy support to enhance your own life too, as you make the role your own in a friendly, supportive multidisciplinary team.

As a Recovery Worker we offer a starting salary of £24,150 rising each year in line with our pay progression salary bands, rising to £28,252 per year. (Dependent on experience you may be offered a starting salary above the initial starting salary).

You will have opportunities to progress your career with a structured learning journey and clearly defined career pathways that will enable you to achieve your long-term goals and work to your strengths.

Whether you are looking to progress into a management and leadership role or to be a specialist in your field as an Advanced Recovery Practitioner at Turning point we will support and encourage you on your career journey.

**Role Responsibility**:
We have a new, exciting opportunity to support the delivery of our psychosocial (PSI) group work programme, focussing on our aftercare offer for people who have achieved their initial goals and are either abstinent or have controlled use.

The Aftercare Worker will be responsible for delivering several group sessions, covering a variety of topics, and supporting service users to move successfully through treatment.

Using evidence-based programmes, you will support people to gain access to treatment to maintain their recovery goals. Working with other staff within the team, you will deliver a range of programmes, including the Recovery Skills Programme (RSP) to support long-term recovery, Mindfulness-Based Relapse Prevention, and our in-house Relapse Prevention programme. The role will also support our peer mentor programme and the development of a weekend recovery community.

You will join a multi-disciplinary team of clinicians, recovery workers and peer mentors and be required to work alongside a range of partners in criminal justice, housing and health and social care. Please note that this role will require regular travel to other hubs as required, so you will need to have your own vehicle or be willing to use public transport.

You’ll have experience of delivering group work programmes, as well as an understanding of the theory behind the benefits of group work, and experience of using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and motivational interviewing (MI) skills to help empower service users to make sustained changes to their life. Experience of working with people using alcohol and other drugs would be ideal but training will be offered to learn more about this if necessary. You will have a passion for leading change and an excellent level of communication and organisational skills, including robust IT skills.

We value individual creativity and initiative and, whatever your role, you will be fully involved in identifying opportunities to improve the quality of our services and the service user experience. Your ideas will be listened to, and your suggestions implemented wherever possible. You will be supported in your role by extensive training to help develop your skills. Our learning culture encourages everyone to stay on top of the latest developments in their field and helps drive service improvement.
