Working across a variety of settings, you'll facilitate both face-to-face and virtual group programmes, alongside one-to-one sessions, helping service users build the knowledge, skills and confidence to achieve lasting recovery.

You'll also have the opportunity to

• Deliver recovery-focused programmes based on recognised behaviour change and recovery models.
• Support people within their local communities to strengthen long-term recovery.
• Help develop peer support and recovery networks.
• Contribute to our accredited mentor programme, supporting volunteers to make a real difference.

This is an exciting time to join the substance misuse sector, with continued investment creating new opportunities for innovation, professional development and career progression.
