About the Role

As a Recovery Worker, you'll inspire and support people using our services to maintain their tenancy, build independence and work toward personal goals. You'll collaborate with individuals to create personalised support plans that help them

At North Ormesby Road, we believe recovery is unique to every individual. We know that with the right support at the right time, recovery is possible for everyone and you could play a key part in making that happen.

  • Flexibility and willingness to work on a rota and participate in on-call duties
