**Job Introduction**:
At Turning Point, we support people across the UK with mental health needs. As a Project worker 2 within mental health, you’ll make a real difference to their lives as you develop the personal, flexible and recovery-focused support plans they need to help turn things around. Passionate about people, you’ll support people in the Supported Housing Service based around Manchester.

The services include a 24-hour supported accommodation, a short-stay transitional service supporting individuals to move from local mental health hospital wards into their own homes, and three properties supporting clients on Individual Budgets (IBs) to live independently in the community.

**Role Responsibility**:
As a Project Worker 2 you will be required to lead, manage and develop the team by:

- Building a cooperative and collaborative team that is flexible and adaptable to changing requirements
- Assigning work to team members, monitoring, reviewing and supervising the day-to-day standards of the work.
- Openly and honestly participating in regular supervision meetings (OPR), agreeing objectives, identifying specific actions and development needs, reflecting on performance
- Providing effective coaching and mentoring to team members.
- Actively monitoring and managing attendance and absence, undertaking return to work interviews and implementing absence management procedures as necessary
- Participating in recruitment and selection of new employees as part of the interview panel.
- Undertaking Induction of new employees and ensuring that they participate in the Mandatory Training programme as appropriate
- Undertaking probationary assessments taking appropriate actions in a timely manner.

You’ll need previous relevant experience of using a person centred approach in a mental health setting, experience of working in mental health setting and a good management experience. You must be capable of prioritising your own workload and using your initiative. As an effective team player, you will possess good communication skills, a flexible approach, a positive attitude and be able to adapt in a changeable environment.

As a Project worker 2 you will be required to manage your own case load.

NVQ level 3 in Health and Social Care or equivalent is desirable or willingness to work towards.

**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?**

Of course, we know it's not about the money. But that doesn't mean we don't reward our people for their invaluable work with a benefits package that includes:

- Comprehensive Learning and Development opportunities - we are Investors in People Silver accredited
- 28 days holiday, increasing with each year of service until 30 days. Plus the option to purchase additional holidays
- Flexible benefit options including, bike to work schemes and season ticket loans
- Competitive Pension and Life Assurance scheme
- Employee Assistance Programme and access to online Health and Wellbeing support
- Flexible working patterns to support work/life balance
- Access to a wide range of discounts including Cinema, Groceries and Gym.

As part of the fight against COVID-19 here are some of the measures we have in place to keep our team members and the people we support safe:

- Enhanced Infection/Prevention Control Measures, including the use of PPE, social distancing and regular testing
- Following all government guidance applicable to our services as a minimum and ensuring our teams are trained effectively
- Strongly encouraging colleagues to receive a vaccination to keep themselves and those around them safe, enabling access through time off & covering transport costs
- Regular updates, FAQs, myth busting from Turning Point’s clinical team as well as wellbeing seminars which provide support on a variety of topics
- We reserve the right to close this advert early if we are able to appoint to the vacancy before the advertised closing date._
