An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Community Recovery Navigator to join our highly motivated and committed Integrated Recovery team, which supports individuals with co-occurring mental health and substance use issues to make positive life choices and make a real difference to our clients, their families, and the wider community, including promoting engagement with mental health services.

Our teams provide support for individuals experiencing problematic substance use. Our new recovery coordination role will ensure we provide specialist, tailored support to enable service users to make positive changes, giving us the knowledge and resources to reach and engage people with diverse needs within our communities.

The successful candidate will work within a supportive team with regular meetings, clinical supervision, and joint working. The team includes Recovery Navigators, a counselling team, psychologists, and a team manager.

• You will be responsible for recovery-focused assessment, planning, risk management, and delivering personalized interventions at all stages of treatment. You will adopt a holistic approach, ensuring every care package addresses all aspects of wellbeing, not just substance use, to achieve the best outcomes for each individual.
