Description
Change Grow Live are a charity dedicated to the belief that we can make a difference to our Service Users lives, offering support and respect in a safe environment, treating each user as an individual and working with them to find the right treatment and care options.
As a Recovery Coordinator within our Sunderland team, you’ll work alongside people affected by their own drug or alcohol use, as well as those concerned about someone they care about.
You’ll help people understand their options, recognise their strengths and build a recovery plan around what they want to achieve.
This is not simply caseload management.
It is connection, coordination and meaningful change—combined.
You’ll support people from their first contact with the service and throughout their treatment and recovery journey.
As their main care coordinator, you’ll complete assessments, understand their needs and bring together the right clinical, psychosocial and community support. You’ll help reduce harm, manage risk and connect people with services that can improve their health, wellbeing and independence.
As a Recovery Coordinator you will:
- Complete assessments, recovery plans, risk assessments and regular reviews.
- Coordinate personalised treatment, including clinical and psychosocial interventions.
- Work closely with prescribing colleagues, health services and community partners.
- Respond to safeguarding concerns and make appropriate referrals.
- Promote harm reduction, naloxone, peer support and mutual aid.
- Maintain accurate, timely and confidential records.
At Change Grow Live, we believe everyone deserves the opportunity to change the direction of their life.
You’ll join a team that values collaboration, reflective practice and professional development—and where your work can make a visible difference every day.
Our values—Be open. Be compassionate. Be bold.—guide everything we do. If they reflect the way you work, we’d love to hear from you.
