Job Description
Job Introduction
At Turning Point, we support people across the UK with mental health issues. As a Recovery Worker, you’ll make a real difference to their lives as you work closely with them to help them achieve their potential. Turning Point has several well-established services within Nottingham.
Angel Lace is a supported living service that supports people who may have dual diagnoses, legal restrictions, a history of drug/and or alcohol use and complex support needs.
Passionate about people, you’ll enjoy the scope and support individuals to gain the skills to live independently. With an emphasis on key working, you’ll need to work flexibly to manage your own small caseload and help with the day to day running of the service.
The service operates 24/7 with rota consisting of day, evening and waking night shifts including alternate weekends.
Role Responsibility
Raising the bar for person–centred support, you’ll provide a range of recovery focused support through key working sessions. People’s lives will be truly changed by you as you enable and prepare them to gain new skills and help them find ways to promote their long term recovery.

The Ideal Candidate
A relevant qualification is desirable, although not essential. We are looking for some experience in the mental health sector, and that you will have a good understanding of the recovery model, together with a solution–focused attitude and a person–centred approach.
You’ll be equally comfortable getting things done on your own initiative and as part of a team, and have no problems working in a fast–paced environment andadapting to challenging situations. And of course, you’ll be the sort of person who enjoys talking to people with different needs, is genuinely interested in helping them, and possesses a deep level of empathy, understanding and patience.

These include belief in potential, confidence in communication, embracing positive change and always treating each other as individuals.
We run all of our services on a not-for-profit basis; instead, we invest every penny back into our services and people. We never stop believing in change for the better, and we work constantly to improve the lives of the people we support.
Our people bring our vision to life. So, if you are enthusiastic, motivated and committed to support others to fulfilling their potential, here at Turning Point, we don't just offer you a job – we offer you a career.
