You’ll understand alcohol and other substance use issues, specifically opiates and opiate treatment pathways, and the challenges and opportunities for individuals on a recovery journey, including harm reduction. Substantial knowledge and experience of current prescribing options would also be advantageous.

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.
