Outreach Inclusive Recovery Worker

Are you passionate about supporting people to overcome barriers and access the help they need?

We're looking for an enthusiastic and compassionate Outreach Inclusive Recovery Worker to join our team in Medway. This is a fantastic opportunity to make a real difference by improving access to recovery services for people who may not traditionally engage with support, particularly those from Eastern European communities.

If you're someone who enjoys building relationships, working within communities and empowering people to make positive changes, we'd love to hear from you.

About the Role

As an Outreach Inclusive Recovery Worker, you'll be out in the community, connecting with people where they are. You'll work proactively to engage individuals who may face barriers to accessing treatment, helping them take the first steps towards recovery and improved well-being.

You'll build trusted relationships with local communities, voluntary organisations and partner agencies, helping to reduce stigma and ensure everyone has equal access to the support they need.

This is a varied and rewarding role where no two days are the same. You'll balance outreach work with managing a caseload, delivering person-centred interventions and supporting people throughout their recovery journey.

What You'll Be Doing

Deliver outreach activities across Medway, engaging with individuals and communities in a variety of settings.

Build trusted relationships with underrepresented and migrant communities to improve access to support.

Help reduce barriers such as stigma, language and lack of awareness of available services.

Manage a caseload, completing assessments, recovery plans and harm reduction interventions.

Provide tailored one-to-one support, empowering people to achieve their recovery goals.

Develop strong partnerships with community organisations, voluntary groups and local stakeholders.

Identify gaps in service provision and contribute ideas to make our services more inclusive and accessible.
