An exciting opportunity for a Young People’s Recovery Practitioner has arisen and we are looking for an experienced, reliable, creative person to promote, co-ordinate and deliver structured support.

The Young People’s practitioner will be part of our dynamic and exciting Young People’s service in Redbridge. We are looking for someone who is motivated to ensure service users achieve the best possible outcomes.

The post-holder will deliver early intervention and prevention work and provide specialist drug and alcohol treatment for young people to:  

• Prevent young people from engaging in substance misusing and risk-taking behaviours 

• Enable young people to develop boundaries, emotional resilience and self-esteem

• Actively support young people to reduce and/or stop harmful behaviours such as drug and alcohol consumption, encouraging prosocial and heathy alternatives

The post-holder will bring passion and enthusiasm alongside a commitment to working to support young people and their families.
