Do you have compassion and empathy for people who are struggling with their mental wellbeing? Could you inspire hope for people who are struggling with their mental health?

Second Step is a leading mental health charity in the South West offering housing, support and hope to people with mental health and other support needs.  Our vision is that we believe in a world where everyone affected by their mental health can create a positive future.  We promote mental health and wellbeing by supporting people and communities to build brighter futures.

We are recruiting a Recovery Navigator to join our team in Weston-super-Mare.  Working in an integrated way with our partners in the Mental health and wellbeing Integrated Network Team (MINT), we support clients with moderate to high enduring mental health difficulties to find coping strategies personally and within their community.

  • using a range of interventions, approaches, and tools (motivational interviewing, active listening, navigation, solution-focused support) that enables people to move positively through their recovery.
  • navigating the ‘wider system’ which includes supporting the client to access appropriate support within their own communities via voluntary sector organisations, community groups, charities or referrals to statutory services like drug and alcohol support.
