Recovery Coordinator

Do you want to work for a caring organisation that believes in people?

Do you want to make a difference?

Do you believe that small conversations can lead to life-changing outcomes?

Join our Non-Dependent Alcohol Pathway team and support people to make positive, sustainable changes to their relationship with alcohol through compassionate, evidence-based and person-centred interventions.

With this role, you'll be working as part of our Alcohol Team based at our Bransholme site in Hull.

The team supports individuals and families affected by alcohol-related issues, helping people to make positive, sustainable changes to improve their health and wellbeing.

No two days are the same. We treat every person who accesses our service as an individual, so you'll need to be flexible, compassionate, curious and an excellent listener. You'll enjoy building positive relationships and be confident having open conversations that help people explore and achieve meaningful change.

This role is ideal for someone who is passionate about behaviour change and understands that progress looks different for everyone. You'll be skilled at motivating and empowering people, even when they feel unsure, ambivalent or resistant to change.

You'll need to be organised and able to manage a varied caseload, maintaining accurate records and outcome data, so attention to detail is essential. Most importantly, you'll enjoy working with people from all backgrounds and be committed to making a real difference in the lives of individuals, families and communities.
