Full job description

Overview

PLEASE NOTE WE ARE NOT ABLE TO OFFER SPONSORSHIP FOR THIS POST

As a Recovery Worker, you’ll support individuals recovering from addiction and or mental health issues while residing in secondary accommodation—such as supported housing or residential recovery houses. You’ll help clients build independence, maintain sobriety, and develop life skills in a safe, structured environment.

Key Responsibilities

Client Support & Engagement
Conduct assessments, develop individualised recovery plans, and support clients with personal goals, coping strategies, and relapse prevention.
Facilitate both one-to-one and group work sessions, and coordinate structured treatment programs.
Encourage daily participation—support movement toward independent living, education, volunteering, and employment.
Help clients manage practical aspects of life such as housing, benefits, finances, and wellbeing.
Accompany or assist clients to off-site appointments, group activities, or therapy.
Residential & Operational Duties
Manage admissions and discharges, and ensure clients settle into the household environment.
Conduct house meetings, assist with communal upkeep, wellness planning (e.g., meals), and medication support.
Carry out risk assessments, maintain care plans, client records, and provide thorough handovers to colleagues.
Care Navigation & Partnership
Work collaboratively with external agencies—such as detox programs, housing providers, healthcare, employment services, probation—to coordinate holistic care.
Provide harm reduction advice, including safer use and overdose prevention guidance.
Compliance & Professionalism
Adhere to organisational policies, CQC standards, safeguarding, confidentiality, and duty-of-care obligations.
Participate in training, professional development, and team meetings.

Skills & Experience Requirements

Qualifications

Minimum: NVQ Level 2 in Health & Social Care (or equivalent); Level 3 preferable.

Additional benefit: Level 3 or Diploma in Addictions, Substance Misuse, or related fields.

Essential Skills

Excellent communication, empathy, active listening, and non-judgmental approach.

Ability to manage complex caseloads, lone working, and stressful situations calmly.

Competence in IT literacy—maintaining records, using MS Office, databases.

Familiarity with risk management, care planning, and safeguarding practices.

Preferred Attributes

Experience delivering structured interventions, facilitating groups, motivational interviewing.

Appreciation of holistic care, recovery models (harm reduction and abstinence), and partnership work.

Personal lived-experience of recovery or having completed peer support training—sometimes valued by employers.

Pay: From £13.95 per hour

Work Location: In person
