At Turning Point, we support people across the country with substance use. As a Recovery Worker, you'll make a real difference to their lives by developing personal, flexible, and realistic support packages to help them turn things around. Passionate about people, you'll enjoy the opportunity and support to enhance your own life too, as you make the role your own as part of a friendly and multidisciplinary team.
Role Responsibility
Our Oxfordshire Roads to Recovery Service is an integrated community drug and alcohol service supporting individuals across the county. Our Recovery Hubs are based in Oxford, Banbury, Witney, and Didcot, and we also deliver services within Shared Care GP Practices. You will work within a supportive multidisciplinary team including Doctors, Nurses, a Clinical Psychologist, Support Workers, Counsellors, and Peer Mentors to improve the well-being of service users.
We're looking for Recovery Workers who excel at building relationships with service users, social services, clinical teams, mental health services, probation, and recovery support groups. Your strong links with colleagues and other agencies will ensure tailored, seamless support. Your goal is to reach hard-to-engage groups and support those at risk of dropping out of treatment to stay engaged and progress into recovery.
The Ideal Candidate
We are seeking Recovery Workers to join an established team at one of our Oxfordshire Recovery Hubs. Experience in the substance use sector is preferred but transferable skills are also valued. You should have managed a significant caseload, understand substance use and recovery, and possess excellent communication skills. Flexibility and adaptability are essential for this varied role. We want highly motivated individuals with big ambitions and potential to grow within our sector-leading organization.
