Descrição da oferta de emprego

Are you passionate about helping people on probation rebuild their lives and navigate recovery? Join The Forward Trust as a Recovery Navigator, working as part of a flexible, multi-disciplinary team making a real difference across London.

As a Recovery Navigator, you’ll be based within the boroughs of Ealing & Hillingdon, Brent, Hammersmith & Fulham, and Kensington, Chelsea & Westminster, travelling between local probation delivery units as part of your day-to-day work.

This is an in-person, community-based role, giving you the opportunity to meet clients face-to-face, build trust, and help them access the services they need.

What You’ll Do

• You’ll manage a diverse caseload of adult male prison leavers and those on community orders, providing tailored support to help them engage with treatment and sustain positive change. Your responsibilities will include:
• Completing comprehensive assessments and creating collaborative action plans
• Delivering one-to-one and group interventions (including virtual sessions)

About the Service

The London Dependency and Recovery Service is designed to bridge the gap between probation and community substance misuse services. Rather than duplicating existing provision, our goal is to ensure access and sustained engagement with statutory and community partners, supporting individuals towards controlled dependent behaviour or abstinence and ultimately reducing re-offending.

What We’re Looking For

• Experience supporting individuals with substance misuse or complex needs
• Strong communication and partnership-building skills
• A flexible, proactive approach and commitment to empowering others
• Ability to work across multiple sites within London

At Forward, you’ll be part of a purpose-driven organisation that values collaboration, innovation, and personal growth. You’ll receive ongoing training, the chance to specialise, and the opportunity to make a genuine difference in the lives of others.
