As a Team Leader in the Dependency and Recovery Services, you will be working within a hybrid model as part of a flexible, multi-disciplinary team, working across a cluster of delivery sites in London.

You will be managing a team of practitioners (Recovery Navigators/prison link) delivering Dependency and Recovery Services to adult male prison leavers and those on community orders within the Probation services; supporting to implement their action plan and navigate their recovery journey, building trust, and providing support/continuity and signposting.

The Dependency and Recovery Service will not duplicate provision where Commissioned Services are already in place, instead we will work to ensure access and sustained engagement with statutory and existing provision to include building motivation, practical assistance and ongoing support and/or achieve controlled dependent behaviour or abstinence with the aim to reduce re-offending.

On a daily basis you will be allocating referrals, managing a small number of complex cases, supporting and developing your team, and ensuring deadlines and quality standards are met. You will be responsible for delivering on performance targets set by Forward Trust and Commissioners.

You will support the Service Manager to ensure data accuracy and data submission deadlines are met.
