East Lindsey, United Kingdom Turning Point Full time
Job Introduction

Please Note: A Full UK Driving License and Access to a Vehicle is an Essential Requirement.

Fixed Term Contract – Up to 12 Months

Location: East Lindsey & Boston (with flexibility across the county dependant upon service need)

An exciting opportunity has arisen to join Horizon, the Young Persons Service within Lincolnshire Recovery Partnership, a vibrant new partnership delivering substance use treatment and recovery services across Lincolnshire from April 2024. Lincolnshire Recovery Partnership is delivered in partnership between Turning Point, Framework and Double Impact. The partnership combines Turning Point’s national experience as an outstanding substance use provider together with Double Impact’s specialism in lived experience and recovery and Framework’s expertise supporting service users with complex issues.

Our ‘Recovery First’ model underpins everything at Lincolnshire Recovery Partnership, with lived experience recovery fully integrated and visible throughout. Lincolnshire’s residents will benefit from Lincolnshire Recovery Partnership’s highly integrated and highly localised approach, supporting with multiple issues across all parts of Lincolnshire.

As a Young Persons Recovery Worker we offer a starting salary of £25,116 rising each year in line with our pay progression salary bands, rising to £29,383 per year (Pro-Rata). (Dependent on experience you may be offered a starting salary above the initial starting salary).

Role Responsibility

Young Persons Recovery workers act as ‘key workers’ to a caseload of young people up to 21 years old, supporting them to achieve their goals around their substance use and develop plans to achieve these. You will support young people to gain a better understanding of substances, enabling them to make informed decisions along with giving them the knowledge to stay safe. The Young Persons Service offers an outreach service to young people, seeing them wherever best suits them and their needs. The role includes maintaining regular contact with your young people, offering advice, information and psycho-social interventions as well as completing assessments, risk management planning and working closely with our clinical staff and partner agencies.

No day is the same in this role but an ability to communicate effectively with a range of young people, colleagues, and partner agencies is essential along with an ability to manage different tasks and a commitment to Turning Point values are essential. You may have lived experience of substance use/mental health/homelessness (self or a significant other), come with experience supporting people in health and social care or just have a keen interest in supporting young people; if your values are right, we have a role for everyone.

The Ideal Candidate

You’ll have an understanding of substance and alcohol use and the challenges and opportunities for young people. However, we also recognise that many people have transferrable skills from other backgrounds such as mental health, housing or other health and social care provision. The role is varied, so flexibility, an ability to work dynamically on a one to one and group basis with young people is vital, but we can help to shape these skills where needed. We also look for candidates with excellent communication skills and who share our values as an organisation.  We value individuals with lived experience but also those who are just interested in this line of work; our Trainee Recovery Worker program enables individuals without all relevant experience to gain an entry level position within the organisation before moving on to other roles.

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 young peoples 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.

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.

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.

What Benefits Will I Receive?

We know reward looks different to each person and so whether its ways to make your money go further, a culture supporting recognition and celebration, or opportunities to boost your career – we want to support you in every way we can with our total reward package that includes:

  • 25 days’ paid holiday a year + Bank Holidays, increasing with each year of service up to 27 days + Bank Holidays. Plus the option to buy additional holidays and spread the cost.
  • Join our team and discover the comprehensive benefits we offer by following this link to explore all the exciting perks available to our employees Turning Point Benefits.

We reserve the right to close this advert early if we are able to appoint to the vacancy before the advertised closed date.
