Job description

Job Details: Alcohol Recovery Coordinator

Waythrough, launched in October 2024 following the merger of Humankind and Richmond Fellowship, aims to break down barriers preventing people from accessing support to live fulfilling lives. We address poverty and disadvantage through mental health, drug and alcohol, housing, and related services.

We operate nearly 200 services across England, supported by approximately 3,500 staff and volunteers, helping around 125,000 people annually.

As we integrate our systems and processes following the merger, some branding may still reflect 'Humankind'. Our recruitment systems are also in the process of full integration.

Role: Alcohol Recovery Coordinator

Location: Seven Sisters Road N15 6HR

Type: Full Time, Permanent. Note: The clinic has one late opening weekly; staff work on a rota basis to accommodate this.

Within Haringey Alcohol and Recovery Service (HAGA), you will be responsible for care planning, risk assessment, and case management for clients with multiple needs, including mental health issues, physical health problems, and re-offending behaviors.

Your duties will include needs assessment, delivering psychosocial interventions, group work, and liaising with partner organizations for comprehensive support. You will support clients' goals in alcohol treatment, which may involve controlled use, abstinence, or residential treatment. Proficiency with case management systems for accurate data recording and active listening skills are essential, along with previous client-facing experience.

The ideal candidate will be motivated, proactive, and passionate about delivering high-quality care.

Key Duties

• Manage caseloads, develop, implement, and review recovery and treatment plans.
• Facilitate clients' progression from engagement to self-sustained recovery.
• Reduce substance-related harm to individuals and communities.
• Collaborate with partners and colleagues to achieve positive health and well-being outcomes.
