• Work closely with the multi-disciplinary team and external partners, contributing to meetings, reviews and reports
• Support improved outcomes for children, parents/carers and families by reducing drug and alcohol-related harm
• Deliver psychosocial interventions through one-to-one and group work
• Identify and prevent potential harm by following safeguarding procedures and working with relevant authorities

Requirements:
• Strong understanding of the complex needs of individuals with drug and/or alcohol misuse, including physical health, mental health, legal, parenting and family needs
• Ability to assess complex needs, identify risks, develop risk management plans and review recovery outcomes
• Experience delivering interventions such as Motivational Interviewing (MI), Psychosocial Interventions (PSIs), CBT and ITEP
• Proven ability to manage a high caseload with accurate and timely case recording
• Comprehensive knowledge of safeguarding policies and procedures
• Commitment to equality, diversity and anti-discriminatory practice
