We are Forward, the social enterprise that empowers people to break the cycle of crime and addiction to move forward and live fulfilling lives.

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 in person and travelling across the probation delivery units: Grimsby and Scunthorpe.

This is an in-person service, and you will be expected to work day-to-day from the locations mentioned above.

The service is designed to improve engagement of clients into treatment services and ‘bridge the gap’ between probation and substance misuse services in the community by offering practical assistance and ongoing support through a range of timebound, enforceable and motivational interventions.

You will be managing a team of practitioners who will be delivering the Dependency and Recovery Service to adult males under probation supervision, supporting to implement their action plan and navigate their recovery journey.

Just like you, they will build and maintain positive working relationships with their probation practitioner colleagues and all stakeholders involved in their Service User’s care. You will need to be fully embedded within probation offices to promote the work we do.

You will provide visible team leadership, travelling across the locations you are responsible for, attending essential meetings and ensuring smooth project delivery so that your team are providing a high-quality service.
