London, United Kingdom Recovery Focus Full time

Community Link Worker

£23,750 (inclusive) pro rata, per annum

Sudbury

You’re caring, flexible and creative, thrive under pressure, know how to connect with people at all levels and really enjoy helping others to live as independently as possible. You’d also like to be part of an organisation that counts on the professionalism, insight, expertise and passion of its staff to inspire individual recovery for the people they work with. Welcome to Richmond Fellowship’s Supported Housing Service in Queens Road as a Community Link Worker .

Right now, our Supported Housing Service in Sudbury is looking for someone like you to support the people who use our services to maintain their tenancy and independence in the community. Not only are we committed to putting them at the heart of everything we do, we recognise they should be involved in decisions that affect their future too. That’s why we need you to inspire and support them to lead their own recovery. So, whether it’s helping to come up with a personal support plan that will see them achieve their goals and aspirations, developing domestic and finance management skills or accessing work, leisure or educational opportunities, your empathy, enthusiasm and compassion will have every chance to shine. Entering accurate case notes onto our IT system will be important too. And, when it comes to regularly liaising with GP surgeries, the local council, charities etc. or promoting the service within the community, again, we'll count on you.

You are caring, consistent, flexible, and creative, work well under pressure, know how to connect with people at all levels and, like us, are keen to break down the stigma of mental health. You are happy working independently or, as a valued member of our team, being part of a weekly rota system. An understanding of drug and alcohol, county lines and antisocial behaviour are important, along with the ability to partake in learning and development opportunities. Ideally you have access to your own vehicle which you are willing to use for business purposes and a willingness to travel in and around the Suffolk area. Mileage expenses are paid on a biweekly basis.

We are committed to increasing our diversity and welcome applications from those with Lived Experience.

In return for your skills and enthusiasm, this role comes with some great benefits and excellent training and development opportunities.

To apply, please send a CV and covering letter explaining why you feel you are right for the role .

This is a permanent part-time role requiring the post holder to work 22.5 hours per week i ncluding alternate weekends.
